Thanks for the link to the Dollard post. His article was an absolutely gripping read. Once started, I couldn't stop. And mid-way through, I read the following sentence, and thought "he gets it; he really gets it":

The era of the morally ambiguous anti-hero is over. The era of the hero is in, and not for trendy reasons, but reasons of survival, and protection of our children, our systems, our freedoms.

I found the read gripping as well. And you are right about that particular passage. Let me repeat it.

The era of the morally ambiguous anti-hero is over. The era of the hero is in, and not for trendy reasons, but reasons of survival, and protection of our children, our systems, our freedoms.

Please pass this post on if you think it is worthwhile.

It's amazing that a former Hollywood executive, who describes himself as a former Hollywood pimp, is doing this. My loss in faith in Hollywood may have been premature. There is hope. Hopefully, his documentary will be seen by many and will be well received. And may be one day Heroes like Captain Chontosh will become household words a la Audie Murphy.
