The Stranger from Omaha: Travel Narratives in the Cinema of Alexander Payne
Jason Sperb
Post-9/11 war films have shifted from heroic missions to showcasing soldiers’ struggle for mere survival amid ambiguous battles and chaos. Hollywood’s modern lens captures the disorientation and daily grind of combat, reimagining conflict as an endless, aimless occupational challenge rather than a clear path to victory.
