Rolling Thunder, 1977.

Directed by John Flynn.

Starring William Devane, Tommy Lee Jones and Linda Haynes.

Synopsis:

A Vietnam veteran seeks revenge after the murder of his wife and child.

Part revenge tale, part human drama, part commentary on the Vietnam war, and part study on the human psyche, Rolling Thunder is a great example of ‘they don’t like films like this anymore’ and makes a welcome debut to DVD and Blu-Ray.

The story is simple; Charles Rane and Johnny Vohden return from 7 years spent in a Vietnamese Pow camp to a hero’s welcome. America has changed – the people, the town, the politics but also their family life, too. Rane’s wife has had an affair with his friend and is leaving with his young boy. His boy, only 18 months when Rane went to war, doesn’t know him and they have 7 years to catch up on. Everyone’s »
