This film creatively explores the women's point of view during the Vietnam War. The audience will experience the sacrifices made by these soldiers as well as relate to the mothers, wives and girlfriends left behind.
A fantastic, heartfelt story set during the Vietnam War. I was really swept up in the time period and absolutely loved the cast. Seek this one out!
I love a good low budget, indie flick from time to time but this film falls flat on its face. The acting seems forced and it doesn't represnt the period accuratley at all in my opinion. This movie is like what a millennial in 2018 thinks the 60s were like. The US southern accents are atrocious. The music is too loud behind some of the dialogue to the point that it's sometimes difficult to ascertain what the actors are saying. I had to just turn it off after about 30 minutes because it was just too cringe when taken all together. The positive reviews here have got to be the cast, crew and perhaps family members of them because there is no way any unbiased viewer got any sort of enjoyment out of this.
An authentic indie drama period piece taking place in the Vietnam era about two sisters and what it was like to be alive and go through that very tumultuous time in history. The film captured the emotion, the confusion, and how they coped and got through it all... It's important that period pieces capture the feel of the time, and I was impressed that this film did such a good job with that via the music and sets. The pacing lagged occasionally, but overall, this was worth watching.
This is a morose film with weird colours like some kind of dated faded 16mm cine camera. It did not capture the feeling of the times which despite the war was very vibrant and alive. I never saw any women dressed like they are in this film. They look like something out of a fifties catalog.
What I remember of the sixties and especially 67 was the very short skirts the girls wore and the pop music, which was everywhere. Something you never forget. And the fact that everyone was much happier and natural back then than they are today.
People were much poorer back then and had less but they were happier. Of course the war messed a lot of people up and I met my fair share of broken people.
I was out in Singapore in 67, which in those days was a blend of the UK and traditional China. But life was fun even if it was a lot simpler back then and quite beautiful, even though people including myself were sometimes hungry.
Nothing in this film resembled 67 in any way at all.
