1978183 minDrama, War 8.0
A group of working-class friends decide to enlist in the Army during the Vietnam War and finds it to be hellish chaos -- not the noble venture they imagined. Before they left, Steven married his pregnant girlfriend -- and Michael and Nick were in love with the same woman. But all three are different men upon their return.
Editor's Verdict
❌NO
"The Deer Hunter is a celebrated Vietnam War drama. While it was released during the holiday season (a common strategy for Oscar contenders), the film's actual content, setting, plot, and themes are entirely dominated by war, trauma, and friendship. Christmas is not a meaningful element in the narrative."
