After watching Oliver Stone's JFK, I was attracted by this so-called angry youth of the Vietnam War. Personally, I like the way it shoots this kind of film. Like JFK, the film is based on his personal thinking and uses a pseudo-documentary method to guide the audience. Enter the room he has...

Hopkins made up for the gap in appearance with acting skills, performing well in several major scenes, completing this very complex political role.
