To me it looks a little like the late actor Sam Neil.

I'm not altogether a fan of mentorship. The word 'mentor' comes from the Odyssey (the Christopher Nolan film based on an obscure book), where Mentor is the form adopted by the goddess Athene in Books I-II as she stealthily glides into the life of young Telemachus to tell him a bunch of lies and get the whole bloodthirsty party started. (She crops up again in Book XXII to survey the carnage she has created.)

Mentorship, I submit, is a pack of lies confected by self-interested adults to socialise boys into obligatory violence.

They're much better off being left to handsy vagrants.

Still way too cynical?
