Query: An Ax to Grind

On one hand this movie it is a masterful, creative work of art--a beautifully filmed, superbly acted, and skillfully directed film. On the other hand, it is a historical piece of garbage and a slap in the face to every vet who ever served honorably in Vietnam, including me. But unfortunately, as has been noted in film before, particularly in "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance," when the myth becomes larger than the truth, people tend to print the myth. Here Stone has succeeded in printing a myth that fits his warped sense of patriotism, or lack of patriotism, and he uses this myth to heap revenge on his country and his fellow veterans for some perceived harm done to him. I suspect it is harm done to him by someone else that he has projected onto his country and its veterans, but that may be my trained counselor side speaking. So for me, this movie is more about a disturbed man with an ax to grind than it is about an artist with a story to tell.
