Saw this cable back in the early 90 and loved it.
Never saw him again until he appeared on the cable again recently. Still looks like a great movie
Vietnam. Not sure why his superiors not rated. I found everything about this movie
convincing. As a veterinarian (not in Vietnam) who can relate to
situations arising from both Harris and De Niro. I can only imagine
this movie is more poignant now with our situation in Iraq. I wish this would be offered
cable more often so people can see. The human toll
our soldiers will not remain on the battlefield. His
brought home for the rest of their lives there. And this movie is one of many that
that brings home a very hard road. Excellent film.
Jacknife is a masterpiece of the 80's. It is a movie that breathes
acting through very interesting and surprising touch directing. In
Jacknife both lovers of European and American film can find things that relate
. The script is very precise and full of beautiful
characters. Ed Harris is giving one of the biggest shows up
date. The hero represents their alcoholic magnificently makes us feel
his broken heart in every line, every move. Robert De Niro makes us once again
think of him as one of the greatest players of all time in one of the simplest
but also more realistic performances in his career. Jacknife
is never very boring because shows his clear heroes typical of any
Hollywood's character typical elements. After the war is not a hero.
Everyone is a loser, and this movie is about this simple truth. None
can amend their works until after a war, like the heroes of this film.
Jacknife is on diseases of the soul that war creates. Simply
magnificent film.
