I don’t think you have a clue: their “imaginative vision” was a filthy lie to discredit our fight and us. The scumbag communists have always controlled Hollywood and their whole emphasis was getting the enemy to win - and smear the real fighters in the process.
You think those idiot movies are gripping? You should have been where we were.
Fiction never lies. John Millius is a communist? He cowrote AN. Both films are American classics taught in film school.
Do you think Sands of Iwo Jima was ‘what it was really like’? Do you think old westerns were realistic? Movies are fantasies. And btw both films were made after American involvement in Vietnam was over.
Jane Fonda hated The Deer Hunter too.
That should count for something.
