    This movie had my tears

    As simple it could be, the movie took my tears in the last scenes. Somehow I could feel the bitterness and the extreme heartbroken feeling when the father touched the soldier's gun whom he believed his son. To understand that faith has extreme power to heal, though illusive it had to be. Dang Nhat Minh described war with a sensible point of view. Father, mother, wife and kids are the most vulnerable when it comes to war. They suffer the pain, a kid became brave and a wife said white liar. The painting of the countryside of Vietnam was well described, with sincere farmers. Just listen to their conversations, they are REAL. I believe every Vietnamese have lived those dialogs, simple but nothing more than caring and faithful.
