Film Analysis / Hamburger Hill - An Accurate Depiction of War In Vietnam?
[ send me this report ]
A 5 page paper discussing the film in relation to the reality of actual events. Reviewers found several production mistakes within the film and labeled the acting as lacking, but many vets still refer people to the film rather than to answer questions in detail, even 30 years after the fact. The difficulty rests in knowing that it depicts reality far too faithfully so that many vets cannot bear to watch it, and those who were present direct questioning people to the film, thereby repelling unwelcome questions. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Bibliography lists 7 sources.

[ send me this report ]
This 7 page report discusses three Vietnam War movies in the context of their symbology and the ways in which they represent the attitudes of Americans directly involved in the war and those presenting their cinemagraphic viewpoints of a war that did not have the simplistic good guy against bad guy scenario. By the late 1980s, both television and movie producers had become willing to consider Vietnam as a useful and marketable topic. Ironically, and more than probably - accidentally, America's artistic involvement in Vietnam has mimicked its military presence there. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
