your city had a curfew, was 943 north. the reason was a black stove to come back for more to get killed by a car. harlow went crazy. so these rights, not goofy. i don't. i'm not to get to it was the guys that were right, these uprisings don't come out of nowhere. the least new film shows african americans fighting and dying in vietnam while back home civil rights protest, rage the america has been here before. one step to imagine a different future will be to put black faces back into america's war history. mm. ah, excuse me. though women are rarely in the

foreground, war movies wouldn't be complete without them. ah, men interacting with men, men fighting men, men dying with. and because of men, war can seem like an exclusively male affair, and war movies essentially. so where the women they appear rarely, often only in the form of a photo or a memory or the desires. if those on the front lines like this scene from 917, a male soldiers longing for his wife, they are something worth fighting for. what is the virtuous, you know, a family member who's photo is in the pocket of the soldier who he looks at. away from the front depictions of the mother figure,

like here in spielberg's saving private ryan silently suffering. she watches tragic news approaching. we see the fear in her eyes has another of her sons been taken from her phone and clicks them. telephone and war films are spectra, a counterpoint to the man of another. this man is the middle gentle vice in human human institutions. he won the emphasize the hardness and humanity of male behavior . man, i just mentioned speaker and he should cover the with his and then the swing shuffled to show the women into life goodness hospital. mrs. healers they sympathize and give comfort. they can also play the role of

restoring men for the next battle. therefore keeping the war going, the women have on some level, a very conservative function. they are the loyal wife and mother who stay behind and wait for their husband to come back. they are the ones who keep the country and the family going. in the spielberg film, the mother is a strangely passive character. a grief is voiceless at time on screen, less than 10 minutes. she's already lost 3 sons to war. now her last son james, is to be sent home to minimize her anguish. your daughter or bring you back, or i can't leave that where they're supposed to tell your mother when they send her another folded american flag. tell her that when you found me,

i was here and i was with the only brothers that i had left. and there's no way i was going to desert them for the son, colorado re with his fellow soldiers trumps his mother's grief in kinds of wool. sometimes a woman's role is symbolic. when schofield meets a mother and child something like marian jesus figures. because when the but as soon as the soldier leads his apparently blistered healing continues, fallen for women embody the costs of war. and even in more films without passages undertone states and women are hardly presence in war, film, sexuality and especially homosexuality. a completely absent bodily contact happens only for the purpose of annihilation. women characters only rarely,

central. mrs. minerva shows the suffering of civilians, livings for war. here, it's not a man who's the victim of baffled, but a young woman. she dies in the arms of mrs. men of a very much an exception in this shondra during the last person demands these is usually a man, whether it's the 1st world war or vietnam. war also destroys those men who make it home alive. often they can't relate to their wives, can't understand what makes them tick. a return to normality is unthinkable. i'm not going to make excuses for what happened. what i'm saying. yeah. i do not belong
1:51 pm
in this. and they're saying that i don't belong over that led to the lack of women carrying the one dimensional on war. could it be the result of decades of male dominated hollywood directing? i think it's an interesting question about what women directors will do when they get a bigger seated the table and a chance to make more films and to make more high budget films. now what i'm going to do something may have begun to change in the last few years. wonder woman signals a new direction. the woman goes ahead into battle. men follow. it's directed by a will to kathy jenkins. some have celebrated the film, the kind of feminist manifesto, but can be such a thing as a feminist for him. we're still waiting for her. so who are movies that rethink battle from the position of women? the woman is violent,
1:52 pm
war hero doesn't seem like any kind of role model. but it's likely hollywood could be giving us more than the future me when the physical battle in the psychological, when begins, how hollywood depicts the hidden moves that wars leave behind us. now on here to tell you that i have killed for my country or whatever and i don't feel good about it or is it just society like me, like my brothers and no, i can't. i can't find the words to express the leadership of this government to the with the same message the united states, since it's people to ex, retaining his parents. now, in time,

soldiers were allowed to talk about the war trauma. they were not allowed to do that after the 1st or 2nd and also not after the korean war i chose fois in coming home from 970 cruise and 999. on the 4th of july, the victims are terms now confined to wheelchairs and found they got anything but a hero as well. in the vietnam era, people who returned put their uniform in the closet and never wore it again in public because the people who protested against the war would criticize them and they didn't want to put themselves in that position. so i think that these kind of films have really helped to process the trauma for veterans for americans who were not involved in the conflict, but may be opposed to it's key fields treat the issues differently. one of the stones will leave room for the possibility that there might be something worth going to show. show that it's not on the lease because

it's a bit different with a film like coming home, which primarily shows us that more is often associated with experiences. and people never get over. but the money that the war never really ends for the survivors, each of and the burden heavy pies 0 who are apt to have be for one person alone to carry. and i'm from the in coggan come, one soldier chooses not to return home at all in apocalypse. now colonel walter quotes played by mont, brenda loses his sanity. you must make a friend of har, har in moral terror. he takes his unit deep into the jungle to service his private army, so he can row free of any concept of morality. the character is used as a means to convey director frances ford couplers anti bully message fever films that have to really deal with
1:55 pm
a kind of national hang over the and through the as them is over the wreckage and carnage is visibly clear. and how do you then deal with that bomer, lots of been used as cynicism to make his point in his fil mash a mobile army surgical hospital, looked after the wounded during the korean war. but the doctor's hearts and minds focus more on the attractiveness on football. it's their way of keeping pain and suffering. the reality is what they faced every day in the operating places. nothing is sacred to not even the image of the last supper, which he recreates for seen the movie shot is heard and this anti war film punch runs thick. and maybe it is the best way to survive the war after all was, well, this is in this
