the most intense and powerful film i have seen in years. there have been other films before that delved into the vietnam vet but nothing compared to this emotionally heartwrenching film and as a typical american suburban family and circa 1972 and comes apart at the seams and revealing the scars that vietnam has left on our all of our collective souls. the cast is a plus plus plus plus fantastic with all four actors(with kathy bates a stand out) giving riveting performances. what is wonderful about this film is that you take no sides and but understand all four characters and empathize with them and even though all four have divergent viewpoints and needs. there are scenes in here that are so powerful as family secrets and feelings are revealed(such as the confrontation between son and mother) that will have you emotionally drained and in tears of anguish. i actually cried in this film and something i rarely do. the shocking end is a stunner. a much overlooked film that should be seen. i rate this 1996 film a positive a superlative piece. highly recommended especially in this day and age with again and our country embroiled in a hideous war and our headlines shouting of atrocities and again and our young men and women returning with deep psychological scars and with their deep pain of deeds done in the line of honor. a must see film.
