Brothers in Arms: The making of Platoon (Amazon Prime)

Last edited Sun Jun 8, 2025, 02:20 PM - Edit history (1)

I guess this came out in 2018 but I never saw it until this weekend. This movie came out in 1986 and won four Oscars, none for individual acting. It was the based on the personal experiences of Oliver Stone, shot with a low budget and a lot of fairly new unknown actors. This features interviews with most of the actors and if you like the movie you'll really like hearing about how it was made.

Highly recommended.
