In the film "Out Of Africa" the Redford character has the typical, utopian, holier-than-thou attitude regarding the locals. He expounds on his desire to see them remain illiterate and steeped solely in their verbal storytelling culture. The Streep character believes this is hogwash, and realises that in order to do well in the world, the locals must learn to deal with the world on modern terms. I'm glad that the latter won our over the former.
Get a grip! It was a MOVIE. It didn't really happen!
