Happy Easter Wishes and some thoughts
Posted: Sun Apr 17, 2022 5:51 pm
first of all, I want to wish a serene and happy Easter time to all the members of our board, especially those who are experiencing a difficult moment and a tough time
but I want also to take advantage of this new topic to share some ideas about our trope, or genre or whatever you can call it
the issue is about the scarce success or appreciation of a woman on woman uniform stealing scene , if compared to the corresponding male on male Uniform stealing scenario
I remember when I was a kid , at the local cinema in my town they showed a 1963 movie , " the great escape"; at some point the character played by Steve Mc Queen knocks a German cyclist ( with a wire trap) and steals his uniform and the motorcycle as well
Well, after all these years still I recall that when Steve Mc Queen suddenly emerged from the ditch now wearing the stolen uniform and riding the motorcycle , in my cinema the audience erupted in a burst of applauses and acclamation
thus, simple question; why so far we can't find anything epic like this ? where is the difference?
alas our trope is without epic content
best wishes of Happy Easter!
