VHS Movie Reviews of Dear America - Letters Home from Vietnam [VHS]

Movie Review: Student request
Summary: 5 Stars

This was a request for Christmas from a graduating history teacher, he wanted to be able to teach from a more knowledgeable position, being from that era I feel students need to be aware how much we service people gave.

Summary of Dear America - Letters Home from Vietnam [VHS]

All the confusion, pain, despair, and even hope of the men and women who served in Vietnam is captured in Dear America: Letters Home from Vietnam. Read by dozens of actors such as Harvey Keitel, Matt Dillon, and Kathleen Turner, these letters show a more human story of the war than we see in most media outlets and reveal real people in real situations trying to explain or understand. The footage, some newsreel, some shot by the servicemen and servicewomen, reveals a tension between the soldiers' actual experiences and the presentation their loved ones received from television. The soundtrack weaves the songs of the 1960s with the readings to create a compelling aural snapshot of the time, which complements the video exceptionally well. While it's not a "feel-good" movie, the viewer does get a sense of the indestructibility of human dreams. --Rob Lightner
