The Vietnam Chronicle: A Rumor Of War Reviews

NTSC/Region 0. Unavailable in the U.S. Originally a made-for-TV movie in 1980, this is thought to be one of the best productions made especially for the tube. This two-part TV movie was based on the 1977 memoirs of Vietnam veteran Philip Caputo starring Brad Davis as Caputo. Rumor Of War is a powerful indictment of the brutalization and depersonalization of America’s Vietnam forces. Also starring Brian Dennehy.

    There is no way to switch off the Chinese subtitles on this dvd. What’s more they are very obtrusive – they’re larger than usual and higher up on the picture.

    This DVD is apparently in a foreign format and it will not play on my DVD; but the problem is intermittent.

    This is a pretty good movie. I remember catching it on TBS one day while staying home sick from school. I was still sick the next day, so I got to catch the second part of it. It was a movie that stuck out in my mind for its portrayal of the war.

    A few years later, I remember seeing the book and reading it. The book was much better because it went into the mindset of the character and why he joined the Marines. The movie does a decent job of portraying that, but not quite.

    Another movie that needs to find its way to DVD.
