"Born on the 4th of July"

[decypher]

Its a movie with tom cruise and its on fox right now... i recommend you people to watch it... powerful movie about a kid who goes to vietnam right after highschool, then events lead him to become an anti-war activist...
such a powerful movie...

Anyone know any other movies that capture the climate of those days? i love movies about the 60s and 70s

im watching it right now. good movie.

I suggest u rent it if u haven't seen it before, theres a whole bunch at the beginning that u missed, like tom cruise's character in highschool and in vietnam before he gets paralyzed... man there are some sick war scenes though...the transfomation of his character throughout the movie is amazing..

I watched this on TV a long time ago. It was a very intense movie.
