(1991) Dogfight
WAR DRAMA
More of a drama film than a war film, which takes place some time during the 1960's Vietnam and the movie centers on an old ritual term, called 'dogfight' involving the Marines practiced before going off to war. During this, actor River Phoenix as Eddie Birlace builds a rapport with one of it's contestants, actress Lili Taylor as Rose and the movie dwells on this relationship. What can I say but interesting information about what Marines or soldiers used to do, before being sent off to war. A story using fictionalize characters as well as story line based on actual fact.
