>>217066554It would make more sense if Mike was the one who stayed behind in nam, like in the original script

>>217066554I'm a NEET with all the free time in the world, and this movie wasted my time.
The film was hated by leftists when it came out
>>217066987You have to have IRL friends in order to get it
>>217066554eh I was pretty underwhelmed when I watched this, it's good but it's not even in my top 3 vietnam movies.
>>217067036TRUE
>>217066554>1 hour long wedding scenenah i don't think so
>>217067324Its only like 20-30 minutes. It's just an hour until they get to nam.
>>217067029>Despite its critical acclaim and awards, some critics derided what they considered the film's simplistic, bigoted and historically inaccurate depictions of the Viet Cong and America's position in the Vietnam War.[104] The central theme of the Viet Cong forcing American captives to play Russian roulette has been widely criticized as having no historical basis, a claim that Cimino denied but did not refute with evidence.[citation needed]>During the 29th Berlin International Film Festival in 1979, the Soviet delegation expressed its indignation with the film that, in their opinion, insulted the Vietnamese people in numerous scenes.[105] Other communist states also voiced their solidarity with the "heroic people of Vietnam". They protested the screening of the film and insisted that it violated the statutes of the festival because in no way does it contribute to the "improvement of mutual understanding between the peoples of the world". The ensuing domino effect led to the walk-outs of the Cubans, East Germans, Hungarians, Bulgarians, Poles and Czechoslovakians, and two members of the jury resigned in sympathy.They have a point
>>217067029>>217067405It's a depiction of how small trauma can ruin a community.
>>217066554nah I don't like hunting movies
>>217067430Ok but there was no need to dehumanize the Vietnamese to do that
>>217067688Nigga, the viet kong did torture POWs
>>217066554There's zero evidence of vietnamese forcing POWs to participate in Russian roulettes
>>217066876>In his 2022 biography, titled Cimino: The Deer Hunter, Heaven’s Gate, and the Price of a Vision, Charles Elton claims that Cimino presented as a woman named Nikki during the mid-1990s with the aid of wig seller and cosmetologist Valerie Driscoll, while keeping the public persona of Michael through the end of his life
>>217066554I’m glad Star Wars killed New Hollywood
>>217066701like the matrix
Why did we do this to them? Theres no oil, or rubber, or rare minerals in vietnam
>>217067721>SHOW SOME HECKIN RESPECTRINO TO YOUR INVADERS!
>>217068003The South Vietnamese invited the US to quell the insurgency, tranny.
>>217067405>>217067688>>217067750Swapping tortures they didn't do for tortures they did do isn't the greatest crime in cinema. Vietnam should be content the Russian roulette scene is the depiction of cruelty to US POWs in the public mind rather than what actually happened
>>217068296>US puppet invited the USA to crush their enemyBig if true
>>217068529Yeah, as opposed to the soviet puppet. It doesn't matter anyway, because you can't torture POWs. Especially ones that were drafted.
>>217067999They wanted to be communist and The US and "The West" more broadly, couldn't condone an economic system that isn't run on perpetual growth and the production of increasingly useless consumer bullshit. They resisted but we turned the rest of Southeast Asia into a crater with sweatshops in it rather than permit Russia and China to have untrammelled influence over the continent
Truffaut said " I don’t think I’ve really seen an antiwar film. Every film about war ends up being pro-war" but there's very little attractive in the soldiering in The Deer Hunter. The experience shown is awful with no redeeming features.
