Full Metal Jacket and the absurdities of war

Описание: #movies #filmcriticisms #entertainment

Ok first film essay on this channel and yes I do expect a copyright claim but I’m ready lol.

So the first movie/story we’re going to look at is Full Metal Jacket and what the film and source material the short timers is really about.

Duality of Man, link between sex and violence. The Shadow? No it’s simply a film about Absurd shit and how men cope with the absurd shit during war. It’s a lengthy video but trust me it’s worth every second.

Video structure
3:41-open and discussion on the film’s process of becoming a film and Kubrick’s goal
6:52- The Boot camp sequence and mostly about Pyle’s meltdown
7:27- Vietnam
6:51: coping with the absurdities
6:04-Joker and do men lose their core selves
