1987 (US) Good Morning, Vietnam

Dion 2022-03-25 09:01:07

This is a semi-humorous film set in the Vietnam War era, between comedy and seriousness, and it is well worth watching.

The whole film is like watching Robin Williams' personal performance, there is always his personal charm, laughter is his surface, silence is his inner world.

The film captures the customs and customs of Vietnam and the life of the local people with strong colors. It was originally made in Bangkok, Thailand.

This is a sad and happy movie, and I also like the soundtrack and atmosphere.

Recommend!

    [they exit the Jeep and enter]

    Edward Garlick: This is the place where we like to hang out, sir.

    Adrian Cronauer: Real homey... in an opium kind of way.

    Edward Garlick: He calls everybody Earl.

    Adrian Cronauer: [they sit down] Is it me, or is Jimmy light in the loafers?

    Edward Garlick: Let me put it to you this way. He's got this thing for Walter Brennan. He says he wants to buy naked photographs of the actor? For three years, he's been trying.

  • Jimmy Wah: [Jimmy brings Cronauer and Garlick their beers] There your beer!

    Edward Garlick: Thank you Jimmy.

    Jimmy Wah: [discreetly] Any movement on the Walter Brennan thing?
