heres a thinker/Platoon

Rating: 9/10 (21 December 2004)

Hey I'm ED. As part of our classes "War Unit", I say that very sarcastically we watched Platoon. I honestly love the movie, but as for this essay with infinite answers I don't take to kindly to it. the question was "IN OLIVER STONES PLATOON, STONE DEMONSTRATES 2 OPPOSITE VIEWS OF WAR (BARNES AND ELIAS, AS IF YOU HADNT FIGURED THAT OUT) AND MANS INVOLVEMENT IN IT. WHAT STANCE DOES STONE TAKE IN THE MOVIE? Now the 2 SOB's grading this have it in for me, they know I know a heck of a lot more than they do on this topic, these idiots go directly on what the 3 whole pages in there book tell them to. Can you guys direct me to some good sites, or give me some general opinions with evidence to support whatever stance I write about? I would really appreciate any help.
