I liked it but I'll need to rewatch to flesh out my opinions on it. It was certainly a great expose of depressing rust belt existence. I didn't fully understand De Niro's character apart from being a tough as nails alpha and struggling to deal with the conflict created by his friendship and enamorment with Meryl Streep. Was he just an unquestioning patriot and natural leader answering the call of duty or was he struggling internally with more than he let on? I often find De Niro's irl aloofness and awkwardness difficult to read in his acting

the director's cut of heaven's gate (the 200-whatever minute version, and also the only one worth watching) is a great film. he mirrored the wedding scene in deer hunter with a lengthy, rowdy graduation scene in heaven's gate set in 1870's harvard.

Does anyone think the contrived Russian roulette narrative diminished the film? Couldn't they have told the same story without this historically inaccurate and sensationalist storyline? They made for 180 scenes but it seemed to make the entire film overwrought and made the film less believable.

It seems this was done unintentionally as the director may have been a legit tard that ran into a fastball with his eyes closed and hit it out of the park

It certainly can be viewed at as a metaphor but as far as I know, the director actually thought he was aware of accounts of the gooks forcing pows to play Russian roulette so I don't think it was intended as a metaphor but rather as a realistic depiction of what pows went through. That's why I wonder if the film couldn't have had the same effect without taking liberties with history; certainly pows went through equally distressing and horrific shit during nam
