audie murphy be a good look man and and the most legitimate of decorated war hero . however and to describe his act style in any of his film a wooden and in addition to identify him by name and be unnecessarily redundant . if we be to place some film sample into a time capsule for future generation and to illustrate an example of act a wooden and or and say and with a range of a to b audie work would be a perfect example ( we could add some from patrick swayze and as well ) . but in spite of this and other performance which be less than stellar and this work provide a glimpse of vietnam and southeast asia and present a decade before the onset of the vietnam conflict of the 1960 and and be part of the post war mccarthy era and where our government take path which history have show to be less than wise . with this in mind and and view this film a half century after it be make and the sense of history it provide be it most powerful attribute . i also could not help but imagine how a film depict the event in iraq and the mideast during the period of the 1990 into the present circumstance and will appear to viewer when it be see and comment upon and at a site such a this and say and around 2050 or 2060 .
