Three KingsDavid O. Russell, director
About a disillusioned bunch of soldiers in the Gulf War, wondering just what they accomplished over there. To them, it seems the so-called successes they’ve had have not really helped the people as a whole.
Oh – and this is about the first Gulf War, early 1990s, not today’s (2006) Gulf War.
Dark comedy with very stylish cinementography; it probably resonates more today than when it did upon its release in 1999/2000, if for no other reason than the deja vu factor.
I’ve been operating on caffeine and adrenaline the last couple months, and the posts have been few and weak.
Not that anyone cares, besides me.
The trick is post often, in staccato bursts – but I’ve just not been able to do such.
As a result, I have so much to say that most has left my radar screen. (Yes, you should thank me for this…). Either that, or it’s just not relevant any more (“Hey, did you see how the Battle of Midway went?!).
More bulletins as events warrant….
