I thought it was kind of a problem that the only minorities shown were in minor servant like positions. Also it was troubling that they didn't really show the roles women had taken during the war, it just showed their post war roles. - Christine W. | I thought it was kind of a problem that the only minorities shown were in minor servant like positions.

| + | The representation of minorities in this movie would have bothered me more if they were showing a city or other type of diverse community. For a small town during this period in time it was quite possible depending on the location that there was little to know racial or ethnic diversity. This fact, however is also the most troubling feature of the movie because it is representing soldiers experiences, but soldiers experiences would be different depending on where they went back too. The whole movie is from this romantic small town cliche. - Jonathan Bell | ||
