10 Observations From The Resurrection Of Jake The Snake Roberts

3. The Haircut

Towards the end of the film, Jake agrees to get rid of his famous long hair and go for something a little more classy and contemporary. By the time he does this in the movie, the cutting of his hair is almost symbolic of the changes he's made in wanting to become a better person. There's an odd scene where Jake flips out because he feels like Scott Hall is making fun of the lack of hair on the top of his head, but it's only through talking about it that he realises that the sensitivity he's feeling is more indicative of his struggle than Hall actually being mean or trying to belittle him. After seeing Roberts for decades with the long hair, it's bizarre to see him without it, but it feels like him cutting his locks is almost him closing the chapter on part of his life and starting afresh.
