About this product

Product Information

Even for many people who experienced the Vietnam War first hand, memories of that conflict have often been shaped by the popular films that depicted it: The Quiet American , The Green Berets , The Deer Hunter , Coming Home , Platoon , Full Metal Jacket , and Apocalypse Now , among others. Vietnam War on Film examines how the war is portrayed through a selection of ten iconic films that represent the war through dramatization and storytelling as opposed to through documentary footage. The book includes an introduction to the war's history and a timeline of events, followed by ten chapters, each of which focuses on a specific Vietnam War movie. Chapters offer a uniquely detailed level of historical context for the films, weighing their depiction of events against the historical record and evaluating how well or how poorly those films reflected the truth and shaped public memory and discourse over the war. A final section of "Resources" provides a comprehensive annotated bibliography of print and electronic sources to aid students and teachers in further research.

Nice book @ a competitive (item) price, packed & sent with good service - received March 06, 2024, thanks! Please consider using direct post via USPS internationally, rather than intermediary postal services for international delivery, as the resultant (usually reduced) postage costs for international buyers would often make your inventory that much more economically competitive.
