      What are you helping us with?

      I watched the movie "Good Morning Vietnam" last night, about the Vietnam War in 1965. In the end, the teenager asked: "My mother died and all my neighbors and friends died. What are you helping us?" This question was asked by the local people during the Russo-Japanese War and the Korean War. I don't know why.

      When it comes to Vietnam, I think more of Duras's "The Lover", a French girl with a pink male hat on the Mekong River and a rich Chinese young master. War, colonization, lust,...

      1987 (US) Good Morning, Vietnam

      This is a semi-humorous film set in the Vietnam War era, between comedy and seriousness, and it is well worth watching.

      The whole film is like watching Robin Williams' personal performance, there is always his personal charm, laughter is his surface, silence is his inner world.

      The film captures the customs and customs of Vietnam and the life of the local people with strong colors. It was originally made in Bangkok, Thailand.

      This is a sad and happy movie, and I...

      not reflection

      There must be some Americans who will not hold a negative attitude towards the Vietnam War. I feel that this movie is that, until the end, I will use the male protagonist to say "We are here to help", but I don't think about whether people want you to help. The translation is not good, there are no comments at all, and most of the jokes told by the male protagonist are not available. I liked the scene where Adrian improvised on the street for the soldiers on the truck. Later, the trucks started...

      "good morning vietnam"

      I've always liked Robin's videos. I still remember watching movies from the Movie Channel every weekend and Monday night at home during the summer vacation. Once played his "Dead Poets Society", although I had seen it before, I watched it again. Although the dubbing is not satisfactory, and there are many advertisements, I am still impressed. Because in the early morning of the same day, the news of his death was sent out in the domestic media. But the movie channel's program list is always set...

      good morning vietnam

      I downloaded it on the iPad and kept it for half a year.
      Swiped a little before, but didn't look at it.

      The reason why I downloaded it is because when I traveled in Vietnam, I always saw the related products made by the phrase "Good Morning, Vietnam". Although there is no story to tell the past, there must be an allusion.
      After seeing this video, I downloaded it and wanted to know more about it.

      Then Williams committed suicide the other day, and a lot of people...

      Before and after the end of World War II in 1945, the Viet Minh led by Ho Chi Minh established the "Democratic Republic of Vietnam" in Hanoi, northern Vietnam, known as "North Vietnam". The French held the Emperor Bao Dai to establish a kingdom in Saigon in the south. Competing for control of Vietnam, North Vietnam and France fought the 9-year Franco-Vietnamese War (also known as the First Indochina War). The Vietnam War (1959-1975), also known as the Second Indochina...

      Watching the Chinese dubbed version, I don't like it very much. I don't understand why his words are so funny. In addition, the concept is a bit left-handed, and there is a vaguely superior perspective on the South Vietnamese...

      Announcer in the Vietnam War. The United States filmed the Vietnam War, and the Vietnamese were always planting rice. Since I don't really understand American culture, I don't really understand it. Just have fun together. The music used in it is really good, especially when I look at it now, even the picture adds a nostalgic...

    Movie plot

    At the beginning of the film, the radio host played by Robin Williams appeared on the screen. Because Robin’s hosting level was particularly high and was well received by the audience, the military transferred him to Vietnam to serve as a US military radio station. Host of the show. He looked more cautious in front of the officer, but as soon as he got to the microphone, his genius humor surged out like a flood that opened the gate....

      Adrian Cronauer: Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the V.P. is such a V.I.P., shouldn't we keep the P.C. on the Q.T.? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C. he could end up M.I.A., and then we'd all be put on K.P.
