@@luisitocomunista546 Oh yeah it's usually not a problem for a decently-sized Hollywood film to have a real tank. But shooting ammunition of sufficient force to actually rock the tank back....you usually don't see that in the movies (for obvious safety reasons)
And few people ever talk about Kubrick taking a lead from Leone here, but the edit results in the activities on-screen synching perfectly with the score. I mean, I know he didn't edit it in camera, nor did he have the score playing on set during shooting AFAIK, but the end result is very similar. I just think it's great; punctuating action with the score is one thing, but tying the scene to it like this is next level. You sadly don't see it enough.
And the whole goddam thing was filmed in a ruined industrial area of the South London Docklands. Stanley Kubrick preferred to work close to his country estate.
Up until recently the bit where sniper sequence was shot was still standing and could still see Vietnamese writing on Wall going towards Dlr was on the left in front of Beckton sewage works. I watched it filmed from just above Windsor terrace. Worked for texas homecare. Watched from garden center racking. Film crew used our cafetiere in store for food. It's now primark.and from Windsor terrace to Thames now built on. But was all open in earlier eighties.
This was actually filmed in London, in the abandoned docklands area which was 'regenerated' recently. The palm trees were imported from North Africa, and a lot of the foliage is actually plastic.
True, and its mostly because Kubrick was afraid of flying! Can you imagine that? All the added costs to production that would entail? Well this is back in the days when directors had more creative freedom. Nowadays studios would tell a director to fuck off if they tried something like that lol

Another classic Kubrick tracking shot - this time THREE actions going on at the same time. The tanks firing in the background, the Marines crossing left to right, and the camera crew moving right to left I wonder how many takes this took. Kubrick was a genius.
For anyone who loved this film, you REALLY need to read the 1979 novel it was based on, The Short Timers by Gustav Hasford. He also wrote a sequel in 1990 called The Phantom Blooper. Joker is captured and spends almost a year in a VC controlled village just north of the DMZ. It's an amazing look at the war from the VC's point of view. Hasford was such a brilliant writer. He was a Marine and served in Vietnam as a journalist for Stars And Stripes. He said that Joker was loosely based on him. His writing was as graphic as it was hilarious. He wrote one last novel, an LA detective story called A Gypsy Good Time. Sadly after being diagnosed with advanced diabetes, Hasford went to a small resort island off of Greece and basically drank himself to death.

There are also clips of the monolith from 2001 a space odyssey throughout the movie.

@@BigHeartMusicOfficial That makes sense as Kubric was a master at using duality. In This film Joker and his squad go through a metamorphosis in the beginning and enter a land of the dead(metaphorically) and the living. Throughout their journey are surrounded by the Vietnamese signs that go from normal to warning signs of danger. Thank you so much for the info, I'm glad people are still looking into his films. Have a good one!

Pretty stupid considering they didn't want our help in the first place. Kinda like Afghanistan and Iraq. If somebody flew from the other side of the planet to tell me how to live, I'd shoot at them too.
"Is that you John Wayne? Is this me?" I always interpreted that as a way of mocking the so called "toughest guy" on the planet cliche. By looking into the camera and shouting "Is that you John Wayne?" they are directly addressing the toughest man in the world who is most likely watching from the safety of his country. When they say "Is this me?" they are pointing out the obvious fact that John Wayne is probably watching these poor bastards from the safety of his home. Meanwhile they are in the middle of an actual warzone.
+Watchtower Reviewz He ; private JOKER says that same line at the beginning when they're being introduced to the great R. LEE ERMEY as their drill sergeant ! a scene which still makes me laugh and feel their pain at the same time!!
+pvtrichter88 Drill Sergeants are soldiers. Drill Instructor is the proper term. Gunny Hartman says himself "I am Gunnery Sergeant Hartman, your Senior Drill Instructor." Drill Instructors are Marines.
Vasili Kamarov Thanks for the info !! and yes ERMEY improvised most of that scene one of the best debuts in any military movie or drama for that matter !!
I'm assuming the comment: "Is that you John Wayne, is this me?" refers to the fact that Wayne dodged military service and yet continued to extol the virtues of serving in the military? It's what I remember off the top of my head so don't flame if I'm wrong. I mean, many stars did "serve" in WWII, but there were some like Jimmy Stewart who put their money where their mouth was and actually fought in the war.
....well he didnt volunteer that is correct. I think he was conflicted about it as he had a young family and had only just gotten a break when the war started. He was popular and it was a small number that got shirty with him.
Wayne did try to volunteer several times, even with John Fords photographic unit and the OSS. but the studios threatened him with crippling lawsuits if he walked out on his contracts. It was something that haunted him the rest of his life and made him excessively patriotic...
Pick your favorite excuse. Another one is John claimed a shoulder injury but that didn't stop him from doing stunts. He was in love with Marlene Dietrich and didn't want to leave her.
He's referring to another part earlier in the movie whilst they're at basic training, the D.I. is making racist remarks towards a black recruit and so he says that quote which causes the D.I. to give him the nickname "Pvt Joker"

@@cooljackster7390 it's pretty underrated, no one really talks about it unless your a big Kubrick fan or somehow stumbled upon it. I'd say it's one of his finest films, great way to end it off
There seems to be an absence of a certain ornithological piece. A head line regarding the mass awareness of a certain avian variety. Have you not heard? It was my understanding that everyone had heard.
The hand coming back in at 1:48 to pull the camerman down a little lower. Great touch. And, in other news, scientists have suggested that the Bird is equal to or greater than the Word.
FearMe410 It's a 76mm. If it was a 76cm that would be 760mm... No tank gun is 760mm. Not even a battleship cannon is 760mm, the USS Iowa for example has 406mm cannons.
It never ceases to amaze me that this, the greatest Vietnam war film ever made, was filmed in England, of all places!!! Look it up yourself if you don't believe me.
The battle of Hue was fought actually in cold, foggy weather believe it or not. I have watched tv docs about the battle. So London was not a bad match for this battle.
This is one of the most powerful scenes in film history, let alone war films. The image of the waving soldier with his face heavily bandaged as he walks from left to right in front of the film crew just before the "BABABABA...." part of the song "Surfing Bird" is truly one of the most surreal scenes on film. Just a couple of notes: the M41 Walker "Bulldog" tanks Kubrick acquired for this scene were actually used by the ARVN troops. The main US battle tank was the M48 Patton. Also, 9 out of 10 times when an H-34 Choctaw landed to extract the wounded, ammo and other supplies would be thrown out of one side, as the wounded were put in the other side. No biggie, no director could get every detail perfect...

The man in th bandages that you're all curious about was (if I remember correctly) meant to be a 'ghost' man, Kubrick put it in on purpose and knew only a few people would notice, it might just represent a burn victim but note how the music goes to that creepy sound when he passes
Probably one of the three best films with a war theme ( "Paths of glory", "Apocalipse now", "Full jacket metal" ). Stanley´s Kubrick film is a masterpiece, especially the first part : the dehumanization of recruits and their transformation in killing machines.
@@zogwort1522 The movie is up for interpretation. The author of the book was a ex Marine who served in the Vietnam war. The book and the movie definitely have themes of young men being turned into killing machines.
I never really noticed it, but at the start, it goes from stone cold stares, a wave, an alertness to weapons fired. No one starts talking until Joker does. Everyone has seen tragedy, or is getting carted away. But when we see Joker, he's the first to make a joke, and everyone after laughs and plays along. even animal mother throws in a comedic line.
I love this scene cause it compares the normal minded somewhat shell shocked marines to the 'no longer give a fuck, this is what war is' type of hardened marines. War is absolute hell, and I bet at times you had to immerse and numb yourself to everything around you just to survive
@@kishjugo4685 I think most of Kubrick's movies have at least some elements of black comedy in them, at least after Paths of Glory. (I have to admit I've never wanted to watch Paths of Glory, and I barely sat through The Killing.)
Still holds up today because these were real effects, not some quick made cheap shit CGI that everyone is using even to make car crash scenes these days. Movies arent what they used to be.
My favorite musical queue of all time. Kubrick's got such a fine sense of detail, like how the paramedics and the filmers walk by so carefully, all hunched over, and the guy with napalm burns all over his body walks through like he doesn't give a shit. Truth is, he's been through so much hell, he probably doesn't.

Kubrick always got it right . Everytime I rewatch a Kubrick film I see something new. His films never get old. He had a uncanny sense for music and film. And most importantly Semper Fi to all the war dogs out there!
When Pvt.Joker said "Is this you John Wayne? Is this me?" It got me because when he called for the toughest person in the entire planet who's safely watching the war from his house, and when he said "Is this me?" he's pointing out that he is in the real world, and he is certainly losing his innocence by his decision of joining the Marine Corps, and he isn't living the easy life, he's going through literal Hell.
I think it goes double. John Wayne may have been the man to some people but to actual Marines he's remembered as a massive pussy who dodged the draft multiple times and would often get arrested for getting into fights with the GI's who called him out.

Stanley Kubrick is a master at juxtaposition, creating scenic moments more memorable by placing music that gives off the complete opposite vibe to what we’re seeing. Psychologically speaking, we unintentionally tend to remember the unfamiliarity. The Vietnam War and the song “Bird is the Word” go hand in hand without us even really knowing. As Stanley Kubrick once said in terms of filmmaking; “Real is good, Interesting is better.” And Kubrick’s dark humour and cold-shoulder directing style fits this story quite perfectly. Full Metal Jacket is one of my favourite films ever and I will show it to as many people as I can.
One of Stanley Kubrik's great scenes - you have an upbeat, silly song juxtaposed with down-and-filthy urban warfare. Most of the song's used to frame the CH-34 that comes in to evacuate the wounded and the dead. And there are a *lot* of them. The Battle of Hue was one of the longest and bloodiest of the war. Fun fact: Kubrik used a Westland Wessex to stand in for a CH-34 Choctaw, since the two look (superficially) similar and it was easier to get hold of a Wessex from the RAF on location in England.
The vast majority of the dialog actually came from the book, 'The Short Timers' by Gustav Hasford. It's a really good read. Hasford also wrote a sequel titled, 'The Phantom Blooper'. I recommend both to any fan of 'Full Metal Jacket'.

This movie welded this song to my brain as a teen. Will forever conjure up images of chaos, death and dark satire.

That makes sense as Kubric was a master at using duality. In This film Joker and his squad go through a metamorphosis in the beginning and enter a land of the dead(metaphorically) and the living. Throughout their journey are surrounded by the Vietnamese signs that go from normal to warning signs of danger. Thank you so much for the info, I'm glad people are still looking into his films.
Have a good one!

"Is that you John Wayne? Is this me?" I always interpreted that as a way of mocking the so called "toughest guy" on the planet cliche. By looking into the camera and shouting "Is that you John Wayne?" they are directly addressing the toughest man in the world who is most likely watching from the safety of his country.
When they say "Is this me?" they are pointing out the obvious fact that John Wayne is probably watching these poor bastards from the safety of his home. Meanwhile they are in the middle of an actual warzone.
It because John Wayne was a draft dodger.

1:17 The ghoulish face of death waves casually to the audience.
I'm assuming the comment: "Is that you John Wayne, is this me?" refers to the fact that Wayne dodged military service and yet continued to extol the virtues of serving in the military? It's what I remember off the top of my head so don't flame if I'm wrong.
I mean, many stars did "serve" in WWII, but there were some like Jimmy Stewart who put their money where their mouth was and actually fought in the war.
You remember correctly. Wayne was booed off stage when he visited troops in Hawaii in WWII. The wounded troops had no time for his Hollywood bullshit.
....well he didnt volunteer that is correct. I think he was conflicted about it as he had a young family and had only just gotten a break when the war started. He was popular and it was a small number that got shirty with him.
Wayne did try to volunteer several times, even with John Fords photographic unit and the OSS. but the studios threatened him with crippling lawsuits if he walked out on his contracts. It was something that haunted him the rest of his life and made him excessively patriotic...
Pick your favorite excuse. Another one is John claimed a shoulder injury but that didn't stop him from doing stunts. He was in love with Marlene Dietrich and didn't want to leave her.
He's referring to another part earlier in the movie whilst they're at basic training, the D.I. is making racist remarks towards a black recruit and so he says that quote which causes the D.I. to give him the nickname "Pvt Joker"

True. Because no one sweats in while they're supposed to be in Vietnam. I mean that's how you can tell.
The battle of Hue was fought actually in cold, foggy weather believe it or not. I have watched tv docs about the battle. So London was not a bad match for this battle.

This is one of the most powerful scenes in film history, let alone war films. The image of the waving soldier with his face heavily bandaged as he walks from left to right in front of the film crew just before the "BABABABA...." part of the song "Surfing Bird" is truly one of the most surreal scenes on film. Just a couple of notes: the M41 Walker "Bulldog" tanks Kubrick acquired for this scene were actually used by the ARVN troops. The main US battle tank was the M48 Patton. Also, 9 out of 10 times when an H-34 Choctaw landed to extract the wounded, ammo and other supplies would be thrown out of one side, as the wounded were put in the other side. No biggie, no director could get every detail perfect...
Maybe not but I would have tried my damnest to get every detail perfect.

You should see 'Dr. Strangelove, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb,' Kubrick's outstanding cold war dark comedy from 1964.
'Paths of Glory' is actually VERY good. Possibly better than 'Full Metal Jacket.' It's just an older film.

Kubrick always got it right . Everytime I rewatch a Kubrick film I see something new. His films never get old. He had a uncanny sense for music and film. And most importantly Semper Fi to all the war dogs out there!
When Pvt.Joker said "Is this you John Wayne? Is this me?"
It got me because when he called for the toughest person in the entire planet who's safely watching the war from his house, and when he said "Is this me?" he's pointing out that he is in the real world, and he is certainly losing his innocence by his decision of joining the Marine Corps, and he isn't living the easy life, he's going through literal Hell.
I think it goes double. John Wayne may have been the man to some people but to actual Marines he's remembered as a massive pussy who dodged the draft multiple times and would often get arrested for getting into fights with the GI's who called him out.

One of the most perfect scenes in cinematic history.
Stanley Kubrick is a master at juxtaposition, creating scenic moments more memorable by placing music that gives off the complete opposite vibe to what we’re seeing.
Psychologically speaking, we unintentionally tend to remember the unfamiliarity.
The Vietnam War and the song “Bird is the Word” go hand in hand without us even really knowing.
As Stanley Kubrick once said in terms of filmmaking;
“Real is good, Interesting is better.”
And Kubrick’s dark humour and cold-shoulder directing style fits this story quite perfectly.
Full Metal Jacket is one of my favourite films ever and I will show it to as many people as I can.
I wish family guy never used this song.

@@A.204-w2d heard what ?
One of Stanley Kubrik's great scenes - you have an upbeat, silly song juxtaposed with down-and-filthy urban warfare. Most of the song's used to frame the CH-34 that comes in to evacuate the wounded and the dead. And there are a *lot* of them. The Battle of Hue was one of the longest and bloodiest of the war.
Fun fact: Kubrik used a Westland Wessex to stand in for a CH-34 Choctaw, since the two look (superficially) similar and it was easier to get hold of a Wessex from the RAF on location in England.
This film reflexes perfectly my military life into the Argentine Air Force, even my companions and corporals resemble enormously the film characters

The vast majority of the dialog actually came from the book, 'The Short Timers' by Gustav Hasford. It's a really good read. Hasford also wrote a sequel titled, 'The Phantom Blooper'. I recommend both to any fan of 'Full Metal Jacket'.
I like the detail of the camera crew's uniforms being clean while the soldiers' fatigues are all beat up and grungy.
This sequence is truly magnificent
