Just as the greater the lie, the bigger the theft - the easier
it becomes. Now that the troops are coming home, the spoils of war can be
integrated into the big picture. Back in the 1950’s a favorite program was named
“The Big Picture” which presented the significance of a particular news event.
How those events fit into the cultural viewpoint was seen as a valid approach
for understanding the issues of the day. Hollywood took the slant that entertainment, even in a war
comedy flick, could spoof a basic human flaw - greed.
