Robert De Niro War movie, which was shocked

Any student in cinema is also a student in history. In other words, it is always useful not only to know what the movie says, but at any point she was saying that. For anyone who noticed both American history and American cinema, the way the Vietnam War was discussed and depicted during the years before, after the conflict, and after the conflict. Most of us grew the millennial and smaller generation during an era of people crying “very early!” When it comes to political comment publicly in the media, and in fact, it seems that films dealing with national issues have taken a great time to appear. For example, although it is five years in the Covid-19 pandemic, and excluding a handful of films that used the epidemic as a background, it still looks like a large side that is largely treated in our modern life.

However, America used to be a place where artists feel more freedom to express their ideas on a current topic in a big way, and many films have proven about Vietnam. What is more than that, it was not only allowed these films, but some ended up until they became successful at the box office and the Academy Award winners, thus ensuring their cultural heritage. “The Deer Hunter”, starring Robert De Niro and Oscar -winning Kerston Walkin, is one of these films. The film was released only three years after the United States left the conflict, and it is one of the most uncompromising views of the continuous effects of the war in general, as well as the effects of many contemporary people.

It is clear that Michael Cimino was never intended as a kind of deadly films. Perhaps, if it was issued earlier in the contract, the “The Deer Hunter” may be an easier time to achieve from the text to the screen. However, in “Al -Fuk” and “Star Wars” Hollywood, Simino found himself that he had to deal with the studio executives who were completely shocked by the movie, to the point that they photographed it to death.

One of the creative aspects of “The Deer Hunter” is that it is a masterpiece of a completely different story, which makes it one of the films of Vietnam Classic War in the late seventies of the twentieth century, which was adapted from other sources (is “the heart.” The film started life as a script written by Lewis A. Garfillekel and Koin K. Redicker entitled “The Man who came to play”, about gamblers with high risks who are high risks who are They go to Vegas to play Russian roulette. As the 2008 Peter Peskend Capture on “The Deer Hunter” and “Coming Home” at the Academy Awards in Vanity Vir 1979The Barry Spikings bought “the man who came to play” for EMI, and could not know how to make it until he met Simino. According to SPIKINGS, the manager has resolved briefly this problem:

“You know why you are obsessed (this scenario)? That is because the Russian roulette is a borrowing of what America was doing with its youth, and sending them to a war in a foreign place, when there was no justification for that. I know anything about Vietnam, and I always wanted to do a movie around it. Are you fine?”

Spikings was a loud yes, and “The Deer Hunter” began from Cimino. However, the story grew, as well as the timetable for photography and budget, to the extent that there was a controversy surrounding the film before the end of the reduction. Once there is a version of the final film, it was shown to the CEO of Universal Pictures, who have the local distribution rights of the film. When Lew Wasserman (President Universal Parents Corporation at the time MCA) and Sayed Chenberg the movie, their reception was particularly bad. According to the race:

“I think they were shocked … they really didn’t like the movie. They certainly did not like them in three hours for three minutes.”

In addition to the controversy over the political content of the film (more about that in the second), executive officials participated in what became a popular idea, that the movie CIMINO was very long, especially the first half, Where the main characters attend a wedding ceremony for one of their companionsBefore sending many of them to Vietnam. While the other movie lovers find this criticism wrongly, it was almost prevented “The Deer Hunter” from release it at all. He also remembers SPIKINGS, Sheinberg and Cimino gave him a warning:

“You must get one hour of this movie – then we may think of its release.”

Although the comprehensive Execs rented one of their editors, Verna Fields (who worked on “Jaws”), to try to cut the “deer fisherman” to its size, where the last choice that was launched on the CEO of EMI, Bernard Delton, who ended up choosing Cimino’s Cut. Executive officials did not face a problem in the length of the movie. More more than that, according to a race, its comment on America was:

In fact, as Shinberg said, it has become a scene at a flash point of speech about what the film was trying to say about Vietnam and America in general, whether the choice of the song intended to ridicule, sarcastic or national. Fortunately, although it is not clear whether the Fields cut off or eased the end in one way or another, the moment remained sound thanks to the Defont preferred Cimino cutting the film.

Simino is still one of the most divided characters in the American movie, and while “The Deer Hunter” is generally a masterpiece, Its advantages and disadvantages are still being discussed to this day. Some of these defects aside (including Playing quickly and lengthening its policyOne of the strengths in the movie is how the scenes give the opportunity to extract their own conclusions while continuing to have a point of view. Vietnam’s war was very new in America’s minds in 1978, to the point that it is of course a bold movie like “The Deer Hunter” would be horrific. In 2025, it is much easier to understand the end (and a film) has an affection for America with reference to a bitter finger. The ability to love and criticize at the same time is one of the greatest freedoms that we enjoy – at the present time.
