Sunday Matinee at Chess Cinemas

full-metal-jacket-1987-04-g

Although I have periodically referenced it I have yet to officially recommend Full Metal Jacket (1987) until now.

Over this Memorial Day weekend, this is one of the darker war films made, in the classic (writer/director) Stanley Kubrick sense.

Matthew Modine, R. Lee Ermey, and Vincent D’Onofrio all turn in memorable performances.

From imdb:

A pragmatic U.S. Marine observes the dehumanizing effects the U.S.-Vietnam War has on his fellow recruits from their brutal boot camp training to the bloody street fighting in Hue.
