HEARTS AND MINDS is an interesting little documentary exploring the controversial side of the Vietnam War. Made in 1974 when everybody knew just what a bad idea the whole enterprise had been, this features some documentary footage of the war itself combined with plenty of interviews from both the Vietnamese and the American troops involved. Some of the views expressed are, shall we say, quite shocking in this day and age, while the violence meted out is equally so. It's all rather grim and depressing, if truth be told, but this documentary's timeliness makes it well worth a look for anyone with an interest in the ill-fated war.
