Excluding the "anti-war" theme of the film, the controversy similar to the vulgarization of entertainment runs through. Perhaps in Cronauer's view, he hopes that his humor will change the views of some Vietnamese towards the United States and make American soldiers feel optimistic. Optimism means that hope is yet to come. But war is cruel, and the humor in adversity is so out of date in the eyes of the officials who are suppressed by war. Cronauer ignores the facts of war, thinking that equality, freedom and love cannot be abandoned anyhow. This set of standards is standard. American thinking is unacceptable and embarrassed on all sides in Vietnam, which is full of gunpowder. This also slapped the American people severely: The deep and hot ocean does not need your care and help.
The script of this film was written by a DJ based on his personal experience in Vietnam that year. The director is the famous Barry Levinson! Family relations, ethnic tensions, cold war anxiety, and the increasing suffering of a changing society are the themes that Levinson's films have always focused on. A series of masterpieces such as The Natural, Rain Man, Bugsy, Toys, Sleepers, Donnie Brasco, Wag the Dog, etc. are all produced by the man. He is used to stars but still maintains his own style. Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman, Bruce Willis, Robin Williams, Johnny Depp, AL Pacino, Tom Cruise and many other big names have worked under him.
The film that impressed me the most by starring Robin Williams was the Dead Poets Society where he once again joined hands with Levinson. I think the oh, captain, and my captain in the film will surely make everyone who has seen it excited. Later, I watched his Good Will Hunting and Patch Adams. He was so fond of him. A talented performer, he won the Golden Globe Lifetime Achievement Award at the age of 55. Last year, Williams and Levinson collaborated in the new film Man Of The Year, in which he performed in his true colors and appeared as a talk show host; this year, we also saw him at Night at the Museum: President Roosevelt.
The only regret is that this film, which was evaluated by "Daily Mail" as "Williams finally performed his acting career masterpiece", had an IMDB score of only 7.1, but when you think about The Vanishing's 8.1 score, you can't help but feel relieved.
Finally, I presented What A Wonderful World by the jazz master Louis Amstrong. In Good Morning, Vietnam, the only scene of war was presented with Amstrong’s singing: US military helicopters rose up in the singing of What a Wonderful World, A bunch of young U.S. troops are scouting nervously in the jungle, and the U.S. troops randomly shot Vietnamese on the streets of Saigon...
