Think it does a fantastic job showing the duality of Mantle the Man and Mantle the American Hero.
I'm not going to play armchair psychologist, but you read about his mental state, and his mind had to have been a dark place. I remember seeing an old interview on the Dick Cavett show, where Mantle admitted that he wet the bed until he was 16. There had to be some form of abuse or trauma of some kind to The Mick, because that isn't exactly normal.
