Sameer and The Chief quickly volunteer as their time with Diana have inspired them to fight for a cause. Charlie, however, hesitates. You see Charlie canāt shoot anymore. His PTSD is too overwhelming and heās afraid heās become useless. āMaybe youāll be better without me,ā he says, pained by the idea that heās too ābrokenā to help.āBut who will sing to us, Charlie?ā Diana asks. Itās a simple question that brings a smile to Charlieās face, a song in his heart, and the group continues on their way.
On the surface, itās a tender moment. One that shows just how close this group has become since dropping onto the front lines of World War One. But with one simple line, Wonder Woman has redefined what it is to be a man.
Patty Jenkinsās Diana, doesnāt ask Charlie to continue to fight for her. She doesnāt need him to kill for her. She doesnāt try to encourage him or make him feel guilty for not being able to kill anymore, or turn him away because heās canāt. She simply asks him to do what he can. She simply asks him to sing, and tells us that we donāt need to fight to be strong enough to stand beside Wonder Woman. -Ā āBut who will sing to us, Charlie?ā The Defining Power of Wonder Woman
