Dave York - The Moon

The seventh character of our series “Pedro’s Characters as Tarot Cards” is Dave York. Dave’s card is “The Moon”.

The Moon is about uncertainty, confusion, deceit, hidden truths and things not being what they look like. It represents illusions and secrets. You know when Alice from Alice in Wonderland sees “the moon” and she thinks that is really the moon, but in reality it’s the Cheshire Cat’s smile? She is fooled by the illusion he created for her. This card’s energy is of mystery, misunderstandings and clouded judgement. It’s important to listen to your intuition to find the truth, to understand what is truly going on, to go beyond the surface.

Dave York is our Moon character because he is the Cheshire Cat’s smile fooling McCall. He poses as the former friend and work partner, the family man, the noble man of the law. He pretends to be investigating the murder he committed himself, when he had already fooled Susan and hidden his real intentions from her until the very last second. Under the surface, he was a ruthless murderer, who had a group of friends working with him as hitmen for hire. In front of McCall and his own family, he worked for the government, he was a good father, husband and friend, charming and loyal. His motivations, his true feelings and thoughts were hidden, he kept them as secrets, and McCall had to figure it all out during the movie, using his own investigation methods and, of course, his intuition that something wasn’t right. Dave was not what he looked like at first sight.
