- W2497261107 abstract "In James A. Michener’s Pulitzer Prize-winning Tales of the South Pacific, a group of Marine officers sit talking about the contrast between the South Pacific and Hollywood’s image of the South Seas. “Eddie,” a young marine, is concerned by a letter he has just received from his girlfriend. Outraged that Hollywood is still making South Seas adventure films while war is raging in the Pacific, he remarks: “What I don’t see … is how Hollywood dares to cook up this tripe it does. Boy oh boy! The reaming they give the American public.” Another officer defends the motion picture industry: “It’s just good clean malarkey … What harm does it do? Any time Dorothy Lamour wants to wobble them blinkers at me, OK. I ain’t kicking.” Eddie responds that Hollywood “gives a very wrong impression. I have a girl back in Minneapolis.” Flustered, he unfolds a letter and reads: Dear Eddie, I certainly hope you are not dating one of those luscious South Sea beauties we see so much of in the movies. If you do I’m afraid you’ll never come back to me. After all Minneapolis is pretty cold and if we wore what they wear … well you get the idea.1" @default.
