After watching Netflix's hit film Purple Hearts, we were left with three huge questions (and a headache). purplehearts
Purple Hearts is an enemies-to-lovers romance about a liberal musician and a conservative marine. When Cassie, a singer-songwriter, finds out that her insurance doesn’t cover the insulin that she needs as a type 1 diabetic, she asks her marine best friend to marry her for the military spouse benefits.
1. When did Netflix start producing military propaganda? Showing soldiers getting deployed and landing in a picturesque village where they play soccer with the local children who smile at them in awe lends itself nicely to a narrative of American saviorism in the military. At home, Cassie, a former critic of the military, later writes a song about her adoration of the troops.
ADVERTISEMENT 2. Can we separate a person from their political ideology? Purple Hearts says yes. This movie has a thinly veiled message of “why can’t we all just get along?” However, the protagonists’ ideological differences are intertwined with theirs and their loved ones’ identities. Cassie’s mom came to the US as an undocumented immigrant, and Luke loves a nice secure border. Cassie is non-white, Luke defends his fellow marines who yell promises of ethnic cleansing in a crowded restaurant.
3. Do women with opinions need to be fixed to be happy? Purple Hearts emphatically says yes. Enemies to lovers is all about both parties compromising and adopting parts of the other’s lifestyle to make their relationship work. Cassie lets the other marines get away with racism and misogyny, becomes a rock star mascot of the troops, and becomes the perfect military wife. She lets go of a lot of her fire to fit nicely into Luke’s world.
