Bruce Willis, hero in America, and he saved the day, got his girl and everyone .
Sweet, short, cut and dry, that was the typical ending of our .
childhood books and early movies. There was the perfect hero and the bad villain. That .
was in the pre-modern era, now our hero isn't always perfect and has his flaws. The hero .
in today's movies needs these flaws and needs to travel through a combination of paths to .
become a hero. A hero in today's society needs to admit that he needs help and isn't .
superman, he needs to have problems and prove that he doesn't belong up on a pedestal .
where his image is totally unattainable, third he needs to travel one of the paths of a hero. .
Bruce Willis plays the character John McClain in the trilogy Die Hard, he is a good .
example of a hero in America today. Although America perceives Bruce Willis as a hero .
in Hollywood, he is a hero to many outside of his acting career.
Bruce Willis has come a long way from his Broadway roots to become everyone's .
favorite underdog action hero. What makes everyone like Bruce is that no matter what he .
does, it always seems like he's having a good time doing it. He is living the American .
dream and he knows it, so why not live it up? He is the antithesis of Tom Hanks and any .
of the other seemingly by-the-book, serious Hollywood actors. Bruce is a fine gentlemen. .
A thought that poses a question when talking about Bruce is that "what doesn't he do to .
be a hero?" It's hard to think of something, believe me, I tried.
The Girl Scouts of America. A well known growing group who sells cookies. Yes, .
that is what everyone thinks of them. Well they usually come to your door, selling those .
cookies. They went to Bruce Willis" mansion. Bruce decided to buy 12,000 of those Girl .
Scout cookies to help support their cause towards fighting cancer. 12,000 cookies is a .
very costly amount of cookies let alone a vast number of cookies. Bruce donated a large .
