The Nixon administration attempted to defuse the negative political fallout of the My Lai massacre by claiming that it was a unique event and the work of a rogue outfit. Veterans who knew differently assembled in a Detroit hotel conference room in 1971 to publicly confess to the torture and massacre of civilians, and to testify that this was SOP (standard operating procedure) in a war of attrition against the Vietnamese. "Winter Soldier" is a 95-minute document of the testimony.
The simplicity of the film-making gives the content a starkness which is entirely appropriate.
This film is finally being given national distribution through Millarium Zero, thirty-three years after it was made.
Parallels with our current involvement in Iraq are unmistakable and chilling.
