From humble beginnings as Redmond Barry, the character exhibits cunning and wit to manipulate social hierarchies. He rises through the ranks by charming the rich and powerful, exploiting their insecurities and prejudices. Despite his morally questionable behavior, Lyndon's charisma and charm make him a formidable figure within the established classes.

The film serves as a critique of societal norms and power struggles during this period, blending satire with a satirical take on human nature.
