Nuovo Cinema Balzi Rossi
Full Metal Jacket
A group of newly recruited young marines, harshly trained by Sergeant Hartman using brutal methods, leaves for Vietnam, where they experience the horrors of war in the battle around the city of Hue. A stark denunciation of human folly and conceit-a dominant theme in Kubrick, whether exercised in space or on Earth-rendered effectively by the realism of the set design (the eerie geometry of the barracks and the apocalyptic battle theater) and the crisp cinematography.
YEAR 1987, duration 1h56, directed by Stanley Kubrick
