Christine is another fractured “Cinderella” story, Carrie for boys. Arnie Cunningham, a nearsighted, acne-scarred loser, falls “in love with” a car, a passionate (red and white) Plymouth Fury, “one of the long ones with the big fins,” that he names Christine. An automotive godmother, she brings Arnie, in fairy-tale succession, freedom, success, power, and love: a home away from overprotective parents, a cure for acne, hit-andrun revenge

when an assassin that goes by the name the “Winter Soldier” shoots his boss down right in front of him. Before Fury (his boss) “dies” he tells cap that S.H.I.E.L.D. has been compromised by hydra and that he must do whatever he can to get rid of the hydra agents. Another stage of the monomyth theory is the “supernatural aid.” In the movie Captain America secretly receives something from Fury while being hunted by Hydra.
