The Deer Hunter

One of the hardest Best Pics to watch. Painfully realistic i. Its portrayal of PTSD and the effects of a foreign war on small town America. Absolute master classes in acting from DeNiro, Streep, and Walken.

A devastating masterpiece examining PTSD; it’s filled with masterclass performances from everyone in it. This is one of those films were I found myself glued in my seat, watching all of the credits as I was sorting through all my feelings. That’s how powerful it is.

Despite its faults, The Deer Hunter is a formidable work which asks a great deal of its audience. The graphic brutality of the Vietnam scenes are devastatingly rendered, and it is a pulverizing experience.

Booty Vietnam movie, the pacing and editing are all over the place

I thought it was kind of drawn out in the beginning

Great Movie
