Mark Harmon (Spoilers)
Wow, Mark Harmon's face opened the movie, I was kinda hoping for a buddy relationship with him and James Caan throughout the movie. Guess not. How many minutes did he last?
shareYes, that is a very young Mark Harmon heh?! Unfortunately he didn't have maybe 5 minutes in the film thruout the beginning. And I'm stretching it! Would have been nice though! This is one of my Fonda Favs, (just finished watching it again on MGM HD) don't care what politicos on this board may say. Sooner or later you have to let go. She did apologize several times in the last few years though. We all make mistakes when we are so young and idealistic, right?! Let it go, enjoy her body of work. :>>
shareto be fair, if you know in your bones that our country is waging genocide on people who have done nothing to invite such genocide, how much support for the troops is required?
millions of vietnamese died as a by-product of preserving our national 'honor'. their crime, resisting our unasked for occupation.
hold a grudge against fonda if you want, but at least acknowledge she was speaking a larger truth.
i'm a vet - i take/took responsibility for deciding to serve my country and would never dream of having that decision immune from critical judgement, given the circumstances.
your mileage may vary, but if any of us ever fought for anything legitimate, it was the right for any of use, regardless of service status or lack thereof, to speak our mind. a lot of that other quality of life stuff has been stripped off by the profiteers who like to lead the pack in cheers for the 'winning' team.
our nation is far more than a 'winning team', and can sustain more than a 'winning team' attitude.
