Of particular interest in the chapter entitlted “1940-49: Good War, New World.” Cameron claims that despite war, the forties produced a wide variety of films that were difficult to analyze.
Cameron argues that this decade ushered in the decline of traditional histories about 19th century events that focus on “poetic justice and the rightness of America,” and it marked the beginning of a trend for movies to focus on more current issues.
Cameron states that this film is somewhat narcissistic, perhaps as a result of being based on the book that the main characters had written a couple of years earlier; it uncritically depicts the acts of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein and belittles the importance of others’ actions by omission.
