      Built at roughly the same time as the industrial suburbs of Hue. Post-industrial blight and scheduled demolition of the gasworks meant that Kubrick could go there and blow shit up. And so he did. Sad commentary when an English town is a perfect stand in for city destroyed by war.

    My favorite part is when Cowboy slowly looks up after the mine goes off. Most war movies add big explosions for action or excitement but FMJ portrays every bit of war in its most raw and realistic form. Whenever an explosion goes off it’s terrifying and this scene portrays it perfectly. Cowboy is afraid of what he is going to see when he looks up

    4:23 The magic disappearing magazine. Nobody ever notices. The scene is all about magazine changing but this guy's magazine disappears, and reappears then he fumbles with the change so he misses the first three enemy but get the last two. Kubrick was too meticulous a film maker for a missing magazine to be accidental in a scene all about changing magazines. It's not only a continuity error for the scene but begs the question of how it happened in the first place. He hasn't yet started filming the magazine change yet, the man has just stopped firing so why would the magazine be out in the first place? So Kubrick did it on purpose. A Kubrick puzzle; Why did he do it? What does it mean? Kubrick experts who missed it for 40 years.

      I know this is a year old comment,
      But I think Kubrick’s point in doing subtle things like this is to show how inexperienced some of these men were in battle. Especially against the VC, they were extremely young, headstrong, and willing to die to kill (both parties).
      Your point is right though, and if you look at modern military tactics, there’s no way those buildings would be standing before they moved men up.

  • @robertmiles1603

    i was thinking of walking behind the tank for cover. but the way i imagined it whoever did it should really have been just up behind there as close as he could get and yea to the central mass so that if that kind of thing happened the tank could take it instead for sure. and being up behind the tank like that might also help you keep from being seen so u wouldnt be a target for snipers. plus u would have cover

      Yah but it's not bullets if the fire was on the left because the sniper fired from the left u could see flash but apparently it was a movie accident in Vietnam they wore flak jackets the odds of the shrapnel killing him is exstremly impossible from the chest there was no sniper hitting them it was just grenades or mortars trying to hit the tank
