Seeing with great pleasure the good movie "Persian Lessons"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persian_Lessons
...the comparison is born naturally in my mind between what the actor of the story, the so-called 'Reza', does in the movie, and what "Mark" (author) did: to invent an entire entity of paper on his table, to save himself in a tragic moment.
The comparison may help to explain why Mark appears to me both anti-Roman and pro-Roman in the same time.

Mark's gospel, like everything in the NT, is late patchwork and contains nothing original by any stretch.
