"What kind of Americans are you?"
-- Jessie Plemons character in spring 2024 'Civil War' talking to some journalists that he's encountered.
The scene is fixed.....a civil war in America has broken out, and there's the US gov't, the 'western alliance' (whatever that means) and the Texas 'guard'. The journalists are portrayed in the movie as being good guys. Jessies's character has encountered them and wants to identify them as 'good-guys' or enemies.
I pondered over the question, and how one should respond.
The attempt by the production team is to portray various people as enemies of the Republic, or nutcase militia types.
The fact that the movie has not be released or seen beyond the 3-minute preview....leaves a lot to your imagination.
My response to the Jessie-character.....I'm American-American.
Releasing some piece like this in an election year? It's an attempt to stir up public anger....making them perceive civil conflict being just months away. It won't go well.
