A Story of Innocence Lost and Courage Found.
| Tom Cruise delivers a riveting and unforgettable portrayal of Vietnam veteran Ron Kovic in Oliver Stone's Academy Award-winning masterpiece. Based on a true story, the acclaimed film follows the young Kovic from a zealous teen who eagerly volunteers for the Vietnam War, to an embittered veteran paralyzed from the mid-chest down. Deeply in love with this country, Kovic returned to an environment vastly different from the one he left, and struggled before emerging as a brave new voice for the disenchanted. |
"...fervent, consistently gripping film... Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
"Oliver Stone again shows America to itself in a way it won't forget. Variety
