Episode 184 - #87 - Full Metal Jacket
from Mission 250 Filmcast · host Denny Kennedy, John Stricker, and TC Mulhern
This week, we watch Stanley Kubrick's take on the Vietnam War. Instead of being a rehash of the ideas explored in the many other war films made by the time of its release, Kubrick focuses on the human aspect of turning men violent. The result is an extremely tense and unpleasant viewing experience that many veterans claim is the closest a film has come to realistically portraying what being sent to war is like. Full Metal Jacket (1987), directed by Stanley Kubrick.
