Courage Under Fire Tidbits

2021-12-22 08:01
The film originally wanted to get a hand from the military, but after reading the script, the public relations department of the Ministry of National Defense rejected it on the grounds that "no one of our soldiers is a good person"   .
The footage of the Iraq War was shot at Indian Cliffs Ranch, a suburb of El Paso, the westernmost city in Texas. After the shooting, many props stayed in the local area and became a landscape that attracts tourists.
When filming the training camp, students from the Military Academy of Texas A&M University acted as extras.
This is the first movie produced by Fox 2000 Pictures to be shown in theaters.
The setting of the White House Garden was destroyed twice: once by a tornado and once by a sandstorm.
Matt Damon lost 40 pounds for this film. Due to strict weight-loss diet and training, Matt Damon became very poor after filming, and even needed medical attention for a few months after filming. But his hard work paid off. Director Francis Ford Coppola was very impressed with his performance in the film, so he played the leading role in the 1997 film "Rainmaker".
The story of the film is inspired to some extent by the real events described in the movie "Black Hawk Down"   .

    The film does not blindly promote the main theme, but exposes the cruelty of war and the dark side of the people in the war. It also shows the courage of the real soldier played by the female soldier played by Meg Ryan at the time of crisis.

    There is always only one truth, and lies indeed have thousands of faces. An upright person can only face his conscience and get redemption when he faces his mistakes and tells the truth. When people make mistakes, their first reaction is to cover up, but in fact they are facing them. As a soldier, it is an incumbent responsibility to give the sacrificed comrades a truth. When a person is injured, the family is the warmest harbor. Classic: buried me with medals, they really have a sense of humor

Courage Under Fire quotes

  • Nathaniel Serling: Will there be a public statement of the facts when the Al Bathra investigation is over sir?

    General Hershberg: There's been a decision not to release any of these findings until every case has been thoroughly reviewed.

    Nathaniel Serling: [pause] Well how long do you imagine that will be sir? I mean the next time I see Lieutenant Boylar's parents, I'd like to be able to tell them the whole truth.

    General Hershberg: Do you want to know how many grieving parents I had to deal with during Vietnam?

    Nathaniel Serling: With all due respect sir, this is not Vietnam. Lieutenant Boylar's tank was hit by uranium-depleted shells. We're the only country in the world that uses them. We got these reporters from the Washington Post sniffing around his parents, looking for the truth, and the only person that knows the truth is not allowed to say it because these investigators are dragging their backsides. Someone has got to be accountable for this.

    [pause]

    Nathaniel Serling: Sir.

  • The President: Few of us are given the opportunity, even fewer the courage to sacrifice ourselves for the lives of our comrades. In daily life, even as in battle each one of us is mysteriously and irrevocably bound to our fellow man. And yet, it is only in death that the power of this bond is finally tested and proven. And who among us really knows how he might respond when the moment comes?
