I don’t think I’ll ever recover from Albert Mason taking a photo of Arthur….He submitted it to a gallery!! Albert understood him!! Albert saw Arthur’s inherent value and needed the world to see if before it was snuffed out.
Albert to me, is a representation of hope for Arthur. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to properly articulate it but, it’s the fact that Albert loves animals that society normally wouldn’t. It’s Albert’s passion to protect alligators. Arthur doesn’t see himself anything more than some messed up irredeemable man, that has no other purpose besides being Dutch’s work horse. That he is incapable of change, and will never deserve love. But Albert challenges that mindset. Arthur is a dog that doesn’t know why he bites, and Albert loves him anyway. ALBERT TAKES HIS FUCKING PICTURE!! NEXT TO ALL THE OTHER ANIMALS ALBERT LOVES AND DOESN'T WANT TO SEE TOSSED ASIDE AND FORGOTTEN!!!
