Film Description

Few films have ever found a more dramatic, incisive and ultimately iconic metaphor for the experience of men in war than the famous Russian roulette scene. Touching on many themes - individuals and communities shattered and scarred by the horrors of war, rite-of-passage myths, chance and destiny, blue collar America's loss of innocence, The Deer Hunter remains above all an intensely detailed and touching portrayal of individuals - their friendships, and the trials that not all are able to endure.
