Lanfranco C @Lanfrancobz Nov 5 A Standard among the pacifist movies! See more thiago s @Thiagostone Jun 9 Filme mais ou menos para bacaninha, o roteiro é mais ou menos, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é mais ou menos, o elenco é fraco, e só a pessoa que está na cama ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são mais ou menos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom, o que uma melhorada no filme foi as cenas de drama da pessoa que estava na cama com um tapadeira na cara dela e no corpo também, e ainda tem cenas desse filme no clipe de música da banda Metallica, que a música se chama ONE, com tudo isso, eu só recomendo pelas cenas de drama e pelas cenas que aparecem no clipe do Metallica.

See more Tic Toc M @RT08042502 09/05/2023 This movie would have aged much better if a.) the dialog wasn't mostly dubbed over for some inexplicable reason and b.) the color sequences were as well done as the black & white ones. The color sequences look like a TV movie from the period. There were many great up and coming actors from this late 60s-70s time period, but I don't think many would cite Timothy Bottoms as one of them. I know I was never impressed with him, not in "Last Picture Show", not in this one. The concept of having the voice of the patient is a great one; the execution of it is sometimes unintentionally laughable. Again: Bottoms is not particularly gifted in line delivery so his voice overs are not nearly as compelling as they should be. This would have hit much closer to home in 1971, of course: not only was Vietnam raging, but World War II and Korea had more than its fair share of living vets (as did World War I). And later in the decade we would have films that tread this ground much better: Coming Home, The Deer Hunter and Apocalypse Now. Still.....having said all that.....this movie has a novel approach to the subject and is worth noting. I hate remakes, but this one could definitely be improved upon.
