A story of soldiers
returning home to deal with the 'normal'
life. An eye-opening tale of what really
goes on in the minds of veterans
returning from the battle field.
Sometimes wounds aren't visible to the
eye. They run deep causing pain while
interfering with daily routines of just
living and breathing. That's what
happens to the lives of these soldiers
who deal with losing friends and gaining
family whom they look at differently
since coming home.
Filmmaker Irwin
Winkler did an excellent job in
detailing the mental catastrophe war
instills in people; both those who took
part in the war and those who indirectly
took part in it; like wives, husbands,
boyfriends and girlfriends. The intense
stress levels spill over into all
aspects of their lives trying to deal
with crisis that seem small to others
but are larger than life to those who
are directly effected like medical
paperwork or getting answers from the
Veterans Association. How mental anguish
is temporarily solved by prescription
drugs; the incomplete feeling of the
'normal' society repels them back into
an addiction of war.
The DVD includes
deleted scenes with commentary by
director Irwin Winkler, writer Mark
Friedman and producer Rob Cowan and is
presented in both widescreen and full
screen format.
