In this episode we discuss the 59th Best Picture winner, Platoon, the shift in American culture to discuss the Vietnam war more honestly, the brutality of the film, and the lengths to which the actors went to do their characters justice. We also discuss the 59th Oscars Ceremony, Marlee Matlin’s record-breaking win for Best Actress, Platoon’s four wins, and a tie for Best Documentary Feature.
