Nelson_Mandela 06/04/19 2:00:19 PM #232: | #159. The Deer Hunter https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/57/The_Deer_Hunter_poster.jpg Dir: Michael Cimino Genre: Drama, War Year: 1978 I almost didn't even include "war" in the genre category here because The Deer Hunter is really focused on so much more than that. It's essentially a three-part film: before Vietnam, during Vietnam, and after Vietnam. And the most interesting of the three is actually the affect the war had on our characters after they returned home. The most memorable part of the film is, of course, the Russian Roulette scenes. These parts are still so batshit crazy and intense that I am impressed that the producers even allowed them to remain in there as is. It's certainly not for the light of heart, and the movie is quite long, but I do recommend watching it at least once. Even if you love it, you may not want to see it again. --- "A more mature answer than I expected."~ Jakyl25 "Sephy's point is right."~ Inviso ... Copied to Clipboard! |
