Description

We are back for the first episode of 2024! We delve into 1968's The Green Berets starring and directed (sort of) by the Duke himself, John Wayne! The film is infamously one of the very few Pro-Vietnam war films to be made, the plot concerning a team of Green Berets reinforcing a firebase in South Vietnam in the early 1960s. Does the film hit the mark and say anything about the American involvement in Vietnam? Or does it fail drastically in delivering its jingoistic message? Join the boys to find out!
