Review of Born on the Fourth of July (1989) by Brian R — 12 Dec 2009
Another Oliver Stone masterpiece. This film is so good and so touching it left me almost in tears. A lot of Right-Wing, Left-Wing stuff, the characters are very interesting, the style, the directing, the editing, and the theme.
There is a scene where Tom Cruise who plays as Ron Kovic goes to Mexico and meets a prostitute--Kovic can't have real sex(due to parlayze legs) and you really feel the pain and the loneliness Kovic must have dealt with at that time never to feel what real love is all about.
This is why time and time again war is not the answer. One bullet can strip one's life away with the snap of a finger.
