All of the comparisons with Poirot etc. are valid, especially considering the Agatha Christie influences on both Knives Out and (especially) Glass Onion, but actually the Golden Age detective Benoit Blanc most reminds me of is Lord Peter Wimsey. Especially with the epic obfuscating chattiness/stupidity. Blanc turns up his Southern Hokeyness to eleven when he wants people to underestimate him; Wimsey turns up his Upper-Class Twit, for the same reasons and in the same way. (And in both cases it’s a play on their own real mannerisms and accent, but they deploy it as a shield and a weapon.) Both are epically courteous, polite, and friendly, but you Do Not Want To Piss Them Off by being horrifying.
Also if anyone wants to write a backstory for Benoit/Philip in which Benoit saves Philip from a false accusation of murder and Philip spends years unsure whether he wants to get together with this man who saved him because gratitude is a terrifying burden, etc... omg I would read the fuck out of that. :D

I will love you for ever, whatever happens. Till I die and after I die, and when I find my way out of the land of the dead I’ll drift about for ever, all my atoms, till I find you again […]
Philip Pullman, from ‘The Amber Spyglass’

Was just thinking about this randomly but the way that Belos is known in history, like he wanted, but not the way he wanted to be remembered. I’m thinking about it and although he will be known for his goals, they won’t be praised as he wanted them to be. I just think it’s so INTERESTING. And and and AND there are like multiple perspectives on him in the demon realm and human realm, like in the demon realm hes known for his late life and manipulation meanwhile in the human realm he’s known for his early life, trying to ‘save’ his brother. I just love that so so so so soooo MUCH!!!!
