Here's an idea for fellow balding guys. If you manage to get a date, take her to a movie with a bald but very masculine male lead.

"America, their movies implied, was built not by pioneers, but by Catholic and Jewish immigrants, especially the gangsters and policemen of the big cities."
Not confined to "urbans". Shane and Heaven's Gate are both set in the Johnson County War in Wyo. In Shane the homesteaders are mostly Anglos; in HG, all Mitteleuropean immigrants. Not particularly sentimentalised, tho; when they arrive their column looks like a giant cockroach moving across the land.
I'm a bit surprised that few critics of any political position seem to have picked up the astonishing racism of GONY. It's essentially a sentimental glorification of a race riot (the so-called draft riots) in which Irish immigrants carried out a murderous pogrom against Black New Yorkers. In the film the Irish are shown as victims of Anglo prejudice. Maybe most critics don't know anything about the relevant history? A problem that always baffles scientists is "what do arts graduates know?"
