They blow off steam after work at a neighborhood tavern. They go deer hunting every fall. One day late in 1968, Michael, Steven, and Nick leave for a tour of duty in Vietnam. Before they go, Steven marries the pregnant Angela; their wedding reception serves as the friend's farewell party. 30 years after it appeared, this film can still generate intense responses and controversy. Perhaps the best description of the subject was offered by film critic Roger Ebert, who said, "'The Deer Hunter' is said to be about many subjects: About male bonding, about mindless patriotism, about the dehumanizing effects of war, about Nixon's "silent majority." It is about any of those things that you choose, if you choose, but more than anything else, it is a heartbreakingly effective fictional machine that evokes the agony of the Vietnam time."MPAA rating: R.DVD; Region 1, NTSC; Dolby surround; wide screen presentation, preserving the 2.35:1 aspect ratio of the original theatrical exhibition.- Subjects: War films.; Feature films.; Historical films.; Video recordings for the hearing impaired.; Male friendship; Vietnam War, 1961-1975; Soldiers; Vietnam War, 1961-1975; Man-woman relationships; Military deserters;
