COMING HOME (1978)


The 70's Rivers, Day 15

Coming Home (1978)
This is not in the 1001 movie book, but I’ll always think of this as one of the trilogy (with The Deer Hunter and Apocalypse, Now) of Vietnam films of the late 70’s, so I really couldn’t leave it out. Still a strong and sad drama. Of course, I also love the music. I hadn’t seen this movie since it first came out 34 years (34 years! Holy, crap!) ago, but still associate The Rolling Stones’ song Out of Time with the opening credits of the film.

The Ashby River II
The Ashby River was one of my favorite 70’s waterways. You just never knew in what direction it was going to flow.
