Sheriff Woody: beloved hero of the Toy Story franchise. But there's more to this cowboy than meets the eye...
What is Naturalism? WELL......it is a theory of writing in which a writer should adopt an objective view toward the material written about, be free of preconceived ideas, and represent with clinical accuracy and frankness the details of life.
So, how does Woody embody Naturalism? Firstly, he views things objectively. For example, when Buzz first arrives to Andy's room, Woody is understandably hesitant; however, he keeps an open mind and attempts to get to know Buzz without preconceived ideas getting in the way. Of course, this does not last long as Woody soon realizes Buzz as a threat to his way of life. In Toy Story 3, Woody tries to think the best of Andy even when things look grim.
Woody is frank when he needs to be, though. He bluntly breaks the news to Buzz that he us, in fact, a toy. He also, tell all the toys plainly when he sees that Andy has out grown them.
Due to his objectivity and clinical accuracy, Sheriff Woody is a perfect example of a Naturalist.
