The purity of Hollywood movie fiction is rooted in boy meets girl because in the Golden Age of Hollywood, men undeniably ruled the world, and lust with its variations ruled men.
In The Hollywood movie about WWI, which was about pacifist York meeting reality, they just had to toss in the boy meets girl theme. It was his life dream, his motivating source of energy. His life dream was not to be a killer. Events overwhelmed his plans.
You know, in reality, they gave the guy a ticker tape parade in NYC.
Why did they do that in reality, and why were all the people cheering for York, in reality?
And, what do you think of his simple, Appalachian logic that justified his societal role, and destiny, which was to be A Guardian, along with all its nasty particulars?
Goodness needs guardians, don't you know, because unlike truth goodness is not self-protected.

Why do you think truth is self-protected?
