I am am not going to write a review of this excellent film. I am going to tell what happened in the theater after the film ended. No one moved. Through the entire credit sequence not a single person in the theater spoke or got up to leave. A lot of sniffles but absolutely no movement to exit by the nearly packed house. Usually someone has to pee so bad that they get up and exit. But not today. Im 61 and have watched many many films in theaters all over our great country and I have rarely if ever seen such a thing! I hate to predict and am usually wrong but Haille Steinfeld, Jeff Bridges and the Cohen Bros should be Oscar winners for this one.
What ever happened to this wonderful movie? When I was at the University of Oregon in the late 60s and early 70s it was shown on local t.v. in Eugene several times. I have not seen it since but it has lingered in my memory. What a great film.
One scene that has stayed with me all these years is the one with the dog. A new recruit shows up and joins a group of tired and war-weary vets. The new recruit has a young puppy and wants to bring it along. The puppy is cute and because I had watched a ton of American war films I thought that everyone would embrace the dog, make it their mascot and have a merry time as they wasted Krauts in the Hurtgen Forrest but the vets will not allow the dog to join them. What the vets know and the new guy doesn't is that they are headed for a place where only those with a hard heart survive. The Hurtgun is no place for pups or children. Only a certain type of individual could possibly survive there. You can see it in the vets that they would like to indulge the new guy and his dog, but they know better. They make the recruit leave the dog as they board the truck headed for the front. The puppy starts following the truck as it pulls away and the innocent new guy gets all excited and calls to him as it trails the truck. A vet pulls out his M-1 and shots the dog dead. Another vet turns to the new guy who is stunned in disbelief and says "it took a soldier to do that".
This movie, this scene and this line have stayed in my mind and its been over 30 years since last I've seen it.
