It's like the cliches in films inform our values, or so they believe. Enjoying the film reviews. I do enjoy watching great films every few years, it's always a new perspective. Watched, The Deer Hunter, again yesterday. Incredible how many threads are woven together; from Mike's hunter relationship with nature, through stag and death. It's really about great friendship, traditions like marriage and war, and PTSD. There's also humour. It probably gets filed under Vietnam war film, but it's really about life, and people, at a moment in history. Pure Genius!
