"This, the 1989 adaptation of Ron Kovic's Vietnam autobiography is among his greats work. Albeit it a little less known, this was actually the platform for his first Academy Award nomination."

Steal This Movie
1 recommendation
"Oh Abbie Hoffman, radical 60's dissident. D'Onofrio (Law & Order: Criminal Intent) does an outstanding job in the lead role of this film. Although one may be sympatheitc to Hoffman's cause you can't help but cringe at how his personnal struggles (including drug addiction) at times overshadowed and diminished his activism. But hey, nobodys perfect. Abbie Hoffamn is definately a figure in Ameri..."
Iraq Arabic For Vietnam Shirt T Shirt

"So you think John McCain talks a little too much about his service in Vietnam? Or maybe you think he pushes the war in Iraq a bit much? Or maybe you really think he's trying to relive Vietnam in Iraq? Well tell the world!"
Subject Was Roses
1 recommendation
"Man, I must have been 14 when I caught this movie on TV and I was riveted! That means a lot considering (from what I remember) this movie is a dialogue heavy film that takes place entirely in an apartment. (This MUST have been a stage play or something) Anyway, a soldier comes home to his two parents embroiled in bitter marital strife. Older and somewhat wiser, the young man begins see things clea..."

Transneomatic

"Reuse at its best! Vietnam has a lot of tire waste. So Vietnamese artisans came up with this great idea to turn them into baskets."
Dead Presidents
2 recommendations
"A gritty and raw film that is truly effed up. Larenz Tates character was shipped out to Vietnam and upon his return home is having a hard time readjusting to inner city life. Accompanied by a group of like minded and like- circumstanced individuals, they decide to go on a crime spree. Watch as good intentions turn to unfortunate circumstances to bad decisions to utter disaster."
The Killing Fields
1 recommendation
"Oh the humanity! (And the lack of it) This is a critically acclaimed drama about two journalists (one Cambodian and the other American) in Cambodia during the Vietnam War. This movie is hard to watch at times and definitely will have you shaking your head 'why'."
Dogfight
1 recommendation
"This is really good movie that I didn't see until about 5 years ago. River Pheonix plays a marine who's about to go on leave to Vietnam. Him and his buddies decide to make a bet to see who can get the ugliest girl. Thats when Pheonix meets Lili Taylors character. Awww. Cruel, right? Well, during the course of the night he begins to fall for her. Its a touching, heart warming and heart breaking mo..."

ROCKERS NYC - Rockers NYC Bombs Above
2 recommendations
"I'm not really a fan of clothing with the brand name on it, but at least most people have never heard of this one. I love orange on men for some strange reason (I also like pink, just so you know what kind of person I am), and I like that this is an anti-war shirt, but not screamingly so."
Wetter Indochine Pagoda Birdcage, Small
4 recommendations
"Although these appear to be made of metal, they're actually handmade out of laquered wood in Vietnam! I love the colors, and these would look great displayed indoors or out!"
Tam Dao by Diptyque
1 recommendation
"This is a very subtle, Asian, sandalwood scent. Diptyque is a French company, most famous for their exquisite candles, but they also have a small, select line of perfumes and colognes that are sold in some boutiques and Diptyque stores. "Tam Dao" is named after a Vietnamese village and has a very woodsy, Zen like scent. It doesn't overpower, and is perfect for those who want subtlety and understat..."
Large Bamboo Bowls
1 recommendation
"These brightly colored bowls are made in Vietnam of sustainable bamboo. They would make a great gift for that friend who likes things that a little different and have a good story."
Rescue Dawn
1 recommendation
"This is the best Vietnam-era movie I've seen in a long time. It's not a "war movie" like Platoon. It's more about one person's experience during the war. Beautiful cinematography, convincing special effects (or are those actual newsreels?) and the engaging (true, declassified) story of Dieter Dengler's experience on the ground make this worth seeing in the theater."
The Fog of War
1 recommendation
"2003 was the year of the documentary, Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth notwithstanding. There was My Architect: A Son's Journey and Osama's favorite, Fahrenheit 911 and this - Robert McNamara candidly talks about his experiences in WWII and as Secretary of Defense during the Vietnam War."
li xi
3 recommendations
"Yes, we know it may see tacky to list the li xi in our registry, but please believe us, we are adding this because Dave's sister Kris found this envelope and recommended it on ThisNext. It really is one of the most beautiful red envelopes we've ever seen. Just in case you are dying to find the "right" envelope. :-)"
Telephone Bowl - Made from Recycled Telephone Wire
2 recommendations
"Great idea for anyone..I could even see my brother having this sitting out in his apartment. Also a great idea for a hostess...or deliver your holiday goodies in it! Facts from BTC: These amazing bowls are fashioned out of the waste that outdated technology creates. Telephone wires turn from unsightly garbage on the side of the rode in Vietnam into these beautiful, hand-woven pieces. Throw you..."

Between 1964 and 1969, he was Vietnam correspondent, managing editor and editor in chief of Ramparts magazine. From 1976 to 1993, he served as a national correspondent for the Los Angeles Times, where ..."
The Quiet American
1 recommendation
"'The Quiet American' is fast, uneasy and brillantly acted and it is hard to imagine a tighter, more gripping adaptation of Graham Greene's 1955 novel. The cynical reporter, Fowler (Michael Caine - brilliant as usual) and the romantic American (Brendan Fraser) compete for Fowler's mistress, a silken Vietnamese beauty named Phuong (Do Thi Hai Yen); and the struggle over the woman is meant to echo th..."
