The Complexities of the Vietnam Era

VIETNAM!  This word stirs up so many unusual memories for many of us.  I had so many close friends in that one and though I was in Okinawa during that time I felt incredible closeness to buddies going to Nam.  I have thought many times about the odd, psychic variables that were part of the Viet experience. Those of us who are still going remember all the very brave ones who went through Vietnam...Filmmakers like Coppola understood it well.There is a powerful strain of pasion that streams through all individuals who have had war.

Me in the Vietnam Era

We all remember our people who served in the Vietnam. Theater of Operations..,Some Great Souls.

Many Moons Ago in Japan

Some really fine times.

'The Departed' Is profound

The films that have pop always thrill me, I feel the wild thriller by the superb director, Martin Scorsese is in this niche, Yes, 'The Departed' is a huge bundle of joy for us cinema buffs. Leo DeCaprio and Jack Nicholson are so good in this fulfilling Boston movie.
