The movie Walking Tall starring The Rock is about a man who leaves his small quaint community to join the army. When he comes back he discovers that life is like the "good ole days." The people who held jobs in the lumber mill dominated workforce now work for The Rock's schoolboy archrival in a casino that has taken over the jobs and character of the town. Those that don't care for the life of the casino have no jobs and are unhappy. Everybody has been bought by the casino owner and cannot speek out freely against the casino in fear of their jobs. Even the town sheriff has been payed off by the tyrant casino owner.
In this movie their is "the myth of the eternal reward", meaning that life would be better for everyone in the community if the lumber mills reopened and the casino would be shut down. Another myth that applies is "the coming of a messiah," meaning that someone needs to come and save these people from the tyrant.
In the movie, The Rock single handedly takes out a few of the casino's thugs in retaliation for something that they did. The coming of the messiah myth. He than runs for sheriff of the town and goes on to save the day. Only when he exposes the casino owner's evil plans and locks him up can life return to the good ole days. The lumber mill reopens and everyone is happy. They myth of the eternal reward.
