In a way the piece was self-criticism for me as well. I am very invested in what I think are the ideals of New Deal and WW2 America and wanted to see more clearly their drawbacks and pitfalls.https://twitter.com/stevenmklein/status/1206653600300195846 …

I said something kinda similar in this piece, but didn't mention the war specifically as something that couldve just been avoided but should have!

Scorsese and Mallick are pretty much alone among American directors in rejecting the "Good War" myth, no?

I still think we can preserve the idea that the war was worth fighting while being frank about its costs

Absolutely -- and I don't think Scorsese is saying WWII wasn't worth fighting. Just that he's more attentive to the cost than is the norm in Hollywood.
