Except for AN isn't just a war movie, it's a cinematic masterpiece that's also a sort of morality/psychological play. It' not just some Audie Murphy movie. I've meant for a long time to read Joseph Conrad's, "Heart of Darkness." I will have to get around to it one day.

One straight up Vietnam war movie that I though was worthwhile was, "The Siege of Firebase Gloria." It was a B movie that didn't get a lot of play, but was a really good war movie that seemed to be realistic.

Big speakers and little amps blew my mind!

Being a VN vet, I always tell people that AN best expresses the VN experience more so than any other film. It captures the absurdity and madness that went on there. Yes, it really was a Disney Land for adults.

Unfortunately, AN has been worn out from overexposure.
