Been reading and re-reading Stucky fics... I miss them so much, anyway...

I kinda pissed of all over again with Peggy's attitude towards Bucky in the CA:TFA.

I know she's supposed to be Steve's love interest but the way she was completely rude and just dismissive of Bucky in that bar.. I mean... this is the man Steve completely disregard his entire career so far in the Army because Bucky is presumed dead... he took on Phillips and asked her basically for help to go behind enemy lines to what...maybe find him, or at least his body?

Steve completely went haywire after hearing about Bucky and she treats him like that? Didn't she saw how they walked into camp? Didn't she see how Steve would look at him when he was cheered?

Steve showed his 'was made for more' when Bucky got hurt... the least she could do was treating him a little more kindly in the bar, he was still not looking well, still bruised, still finding his way through after being tortured... maybe I'm just biased...

Anyway..back to fics I go.. enough ranting

War Propaganda in The First Avenger and Pinocchio

A thing that has been stuck in my mind since I watched Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio and that I finally decided to look into in-depth: The propaganda sequence where Pinocchio is starring in shows to promote Italy’s role in WWII is very similar to the one in Captain America: The First Avenger (they are both supernatural in some way, a super soldier and a talking puppet, used to make propaganda for their countries involved in the Second World War in a big showy performance where the big draw is their supernatural being), but it has the exact opposite effect. I really wanted to do a proper comparison between the two.

So, first, the obvious, which is that culturally, we all agree that Italy in WWII = bad while the USA in WWII = good. I am going to ignore this one, because my interest is the emotions provoked by the movies itself, but, it’s a Thing. That having said, we have:

- The characters. Steve Rogers is a full grown adult, who is absolutely negatively impacted by the ableism and eugenist attitudes that are fundamental parts of his society causing him to want to prove himself at all cost, but the movie never actually dwells on this. As far as it is concerned, Steve is 100% there on his own free will, and he has fought HARD to get there. He committed multiple felonies by enlisting under a false identity, went through boot camp while being physically disabled, had been experimented on AND then committed an act of heroism before even getting this much of a chance. Meanwhile Pinocchio is a child who was on his way to school when he got sidetracked by the circus and tricked into joining. The entire sequence of his performances is intercut with his father trying to track him, but always arriving too late. He very, very much should not be on that stage.

- The songs. In The First Avenger, the entire sequence it set to the same one, very upbeat song. Pinocchio is singing two, one about a boy saying goodbye to his father, which is very sad, and the war propaganda one, which isn’t. However, the two songs follow very closely, and the shot of Pinocchio taking the gun descending from the ceiling, which by all logic should belong to the second song, is still set to the final notes of the first one. The two flow together, forming one single song about children being taken from their parents to fight in the war.

- Steve is not alone on the stage. All through his tour, he is surrounded by chorus girls, fans, and people helping to make the show. Meanwhile, Pinocchio is always alone, so is Geppetto. Even when they are on the screen with other characters, they don’t interact.

- Before going on stage, Steve is nervous. Pinocchio just looks sad, then he forces on a smile and starts his song.

- Again, the way the sequences are progressing. Steve starts out very awkward, reading the notes from the back of his shield and looking in the camera when trying to act, then he gets better. His performance becomes more natural and confident, the spectacle gains more elements like the Hitler punching and him lifting the motorbike at the end, the stage becomes bigger and more Captain America-themed, he gets his own merch, and the movies do well with the audience. Pinocchio moves in the opposite direction. He actually has three performance songs: The first is silly nonsense about him liking sweets, the second is the chiao papa one, and the third the actual propaganda. It very much is a progression of loss of joy and innocence.

- Steve gains personal profit from his performance. He is more confident on the stage! He’s got fans! A pretty girl shows interest in him! He gets to sit in a cinema and see how the audience enjoys his work! Pinocchio doesn’t get a thing. Even at the end of his performance, it is the puppet master who comes on stage to be applauded by the audience, while Pinocchio sits forgotten on his wooden eagle.

- Steve gets cheered at by children in the audience, who are, and will remain, perfectly safe. In the entire movie, there is only one child in danger, when the Hydra agent holds him hostage, but even there, don’t worry too much, he can swim. In Pinocchio, the children have the threat of being away hanging over their head. The fun circus poster gets covered by war propaganda, and of course there is the very, very memorable scene where boys get taken from their families. Many of them die later on.

- Also worth noting, we don’t actually get to see any European civilians in The First Avenger, at all. No depictions of suffering. Compare this with Wonder Woman, which is much more critical of the war, where there is a lot of suffering, both among soldiers and local civilians. Of course, in Pinocchio, A LOT of civilians die a completely meaningless and random death because of war, usually by bombing. Almost all of them are children.

- At the end of the sequences, both heroes are unhappy. Steve, because he doesn’t actually want to be a performer, he wants to fight in the war. Pinocchio, because he is being worked to exhaustion, and Spazzatura tells him clearly that he is being exploited by the puppet master, who promised to send Pinocchio’s earnings to his father, but keeps it all to himself.

End result: Even if we ignore the rest of the two movies, the propaganda sequences in Captain America: The First Avenger and Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio have the exact opposite effects: The first glorifies war and getting involved in it, while the second makes you feel very bad about it.

Idk. I’m sure that someone has done a better analysis, but this was still a very fun thing to look at. And useful, because something something propaganda, something something depiction vs endorsement, something something I love both of these movies but The First Avenger is still VERY blatant US propaganda while Pinocchio is about being critical of authoritarianism.

#I can't have been possibly the only one who watched Pinocchio and went 'wait a minute I know this'#but yeah this was a FASCINATING exercise #you can see the difference just from the few screencaps I took #anyway good job Pinocchio in depicting propaganda and making it look so unquestionably WRONG #movies #propaganda #captain america first avenger #guillermo del toro's pinocchio #long post #meta
