I doubt this will be making the rounds in Korean cinemas, but anyway, there is a preview for the film here:

Here is very good coverage of the film- I guess I will have to wait until I can download it.
There is a PBS 11 part series on the American War in Vietnam that I am downloading from torrentspy. I have only watched the first one, which gives a thorough background of Vietnam history and politics leading up to the war. So far I am impressed. Mostly I am impressed with a montage of clips of Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon justifying the war- it could be the current script the Bush White House is following.

Although I will admit defense contracting has gotten out of hand. |

It's impossible to imagine anyone, right-leaning or left, coming away from this hugely important documentary unshaken by its representation of the United States and its military establishment.

You think this film somehow justifies your redundant post in another thread and makes ME look bad?
You are no mere idiot- you are also clearly insane. |
