Nope -- I'm Japanese. You are right, Jackson! It's such a quiet, peaceful death, I didn't even notice Just a wild guess -- to prove his manliness to himself..??
He's collected the gun for the same reason, perhaps How do you think? Students: We have free audio pronunciation exercises. Feathers Hey again. It's such a quiet, peaceful death, I've never wondered why Fitts has to kill Lester.
Hi Feathers, What kind of manliness he had to prove when he was already a man? Oh, it was just a wild guess. If I remember correctly, Fitts has been the epitome of rigor, sternness. I understood this as a sign, that Jane was not actually joking about killing her father. Do you think Ricky told his father, that him and Lester had sex, just because he knew that he would be pissed off and kill him? This would make sense, because Ricky was so obsessed with Jane and he knew she wanted Lester dead.
As stated in other answers, Ricky told his father he was gay to disgust him. Once Lester turns him down and corrects his misinformation about being gay, the Colonel feels overwhelmed with guilt and shame brought on by internalized homophobia and murders Lester to assuage his own feelings.
Ricky knew him as a stern disciplinarian and a control freak, not a murderer. According to the script, Ricky definitely did not rile up his father to get to get him to murder Lester. However he did not even say those words just to hurt or piss off his father. This is something that is not depicted in the movie properly but Ricky actually was trying to break free from his father for a long time and at that moment in the movie, he found out a way to do so.
According to the script -. Ricky eyes the Colonel. He's finally discovered a way to break free from his father, and he can't believe it was this simple. If it wouldn't have been for the fulfillment of his long cherished desire to get out of the control of his father, Ricky, depicted in the movie as a street smart guy, would have avoided pissing off his father just for momentary pleasure because it would have then made his life even more complicated in the future.
Ricky told his father he was gay to hurt his father by repulsing him the harshest manner he knew how. Convincing his father he was gay labeled his father an ultimate failure undermining his self defined masculinity as a man and US Marine. It also burned the bridge and insulated him from any future temptation to return home forcing Ricky to fend for himself from that moment forward, he was sealing his own fate of independence and thus began his ascension into adulthood.
No, Ricky told his father simply to piss his father off, because his father was controlling and condescending, and he knew that would really bother his father.
He didn't know his father would kill Lester because of it. Ricky didn't tell his father he was gay so he could kill lester.
