Description
This film reviews the cultural and religious history of Vietnam, along with the development of, and U.S. involvement in, the Vietnam War. Produced for the U.S. government in 1971 by John Ford, the highly controversial film supporting the war in Vietnam was never officially released. Note: The war footage includes combat scenes, civilian massacres, anti-war protest and mistreatment of Prisoners of War (POWs). The film concludes with a quick succession of comments by well-known celebrities such as Ronald Reagan, Benjamin Spock, Dean Rusk, Eugene McCarthy, etc., as well as average citizens, some favoring U.S. involvement and some opposing it.
