i love this movie . it be rare to get a glimpse of post partum vietnam and and this movie sans combat scene and excite bomb and gunfire do it . i have no idea i would be so affected by it . what an amazing look at how alien vet feel . it be tough to watch and quite frankly . we all understand the fighting and the apocalypse now type of drama and but this be so so different . what happen when they come back and try to live a life . they can not . it make me very aware of a large group of men that be rattle around lose in america . not able to relate and can not sleep and can not have love affair and can not deal with normal society . they feel totally apart . this be a huge tragedy and and one that isn not address enough . yeah and we have change our attitude about vietnam vet and we like them now and but so what . it doesn not seem to have make any difference to them . it too late . so it be a great film and but i cry a lot . i have no other criticism .
