A deeply patriotic film
John Wayne knew this film wouldn’t be popular. He decided to make this film come hell or high water from a purely patriotic sense of duty. The Vietnam war was escalating and so was anti-war sentiment in this country. Wayne knew he’d be labelled a Hawk for making this but he didn’t care. He wanted to show that there were two sides to the war and that he believed that the US belonged in Vietnam. The film is unashamedly pro-war and he forever remained unapologetic for making this film. It bombed at the box office (he knew it would), but has seen some resurgence in popularity in the rental arena. The film is very much slanted towards the US point of view, and there are no gray areas in policy or prosecution of the war. I have mixed feelings about the film. I respect Wayne’s opinion but I believe the film is a little too pro-war, at least for me.
