X-Files: For 31 years, this main character is hidden in the first episode and no one has ever received it

On June 12, 1994, the French community discovered a series that would become a real social phenomenon: X-Files! In the first episode we are not alone, a special agent Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) met with Fox Mulder (David Duchovny), Vilain of Petit Duck FBI.

His colleagues nicknamed Marsian that he cares for a non -converting business and has a nose to fill the nose in the shadow files of government. That is why the management of the Federal Investigative Bureau sends it to Dana Scully, a pragmatic woman and the earth on the ground, controls her, calms her down and creates relationships with the hierarchy.

Marked and mysterious character

At the beginning of the episode, he went to the offices of his superiors to appeal a new mission. In the corner of the room, the mysterious character smokes a cigarette, does not say the word and observes the scale for a long time. At that time, it is not even mentioned, they think it is a simple figure that depicts a figure of authority within the FBI.

However, Chris Carter, the creator of the series, was already moving forward and knew that after that the character would be very important. Canadian William b. By Davis, this is a CGB (Carl Gerhard Bush) spender, nicknamed “Man with a Cigarette” (cancer or smoking in a cigarette cigarette).

Involved in the shadows of all governments, such as John Fitzgerald Kennedy, he is in many secret files, including extrovert conspiracy, a battle guided by the Fox Mulder. Thus, it seems to be the 3rd minute of the pilot episode, as if nothing had happened. At that time, the fans did not know the important things that the man was going to take.

After 31 years, even the most fierce fuss in the cult series really forgot that it was represented from the first episode. Subsequently, he will become the main antagonist of the X-Files, who will appear in 43 episodes in 1993 and 2018, but also in the film that fights in the future in 1998.

Figure of evil

The cigarette man pointed to the viewer’s mind because he only depicts the conspiracy aspect of the series. Character is the dark forces that manipulate events in the shade: secret government, extroverted hide, inhuman experience … This is a picture of “deep condition” (deep condition), silent, almighty and clumsy.

In addition, unlike the classical criminal, it is not always clearly hostile or completely understandable. It sometimes acts for reasons that appear to be patriotic or logical, but its methods are inhuman. This makes it a difficult, even tragic antagonist.

The fact that he says almost nothing in the first episodes enhances his secret. In addition, his face is immediately recognized: a sober costume, a cold expression, a cigarette always lit. This cigarette becomes a strong visual symbol, the character’s signature. It often does not appear at the beginning, but when it happens, it is always in important moments. This rarity reflects its meaning and its threat to the aura.

If you want (re -) to see cult series, it is available in Prime Video and Disney+.
