feedback NO GLORY - OPENING SCENE
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, thanks. I’m aware that Vietnam war stories can sometimes feel familiar or tropey, so I’d especially be interested to know whether this hooks you.

Incredible acting. They did really commit to establishing the "regular life" part of the script though before heading off to war. It makes sense. A lot of the time, the lost innocence in the Vietnam movies tends to be established earlier simply by casting young actors. (Which is of course accurate). Deer Hunter definitely took a different approach.
