On the morning of July 23, 2005 I left Kuwait heading to the United States of America to continue my studies, following a feist with my closest friends and relatives. I was very sad for leaving my friends, and family, behind, yet very happy knowing that this trip was going to make them all proud. I left with a smile, with a life, full of hope and love; thinking that the U S and A will bring me the happiness I have always dreamt of. Little that I know, I was going there to embark on "The Great Depression" of my life.

A True Masterpiece, 8 July 2005

Author: DonZ from Kuwait

The Deer Hunter is one of the best movies that ever came out of Hollywood, Michael Cimino does an Outstanding job Directing, his Best Director Oscar was not even enough. Robert De Niro, my favorite actor of all time, has Portrayed his character with so much intensity your emotions are just rushing through till the end of the movie.

The story is about 3 Friends Michael (Robert De Niro), Nick (Christopher Walken) and Steve (John Savage) living in a steel town in Pennsylvania who went to Vietnam to support their country. They play their roles so well and are immensed in their roles to make the brilliant Masterpiece Accurate in many ways. The Music is very touching and very emotionable(Cavatina)that at the end Credits you just go with the flow and just think about the effect of the movie. Robert De Niro got an Oscar Nomination for Best Actor for his role as Michael and Christopher Walken got the Best Supporting Oscar for his incredible part as Nick.

This Masterpiece talks about the effect of Vietnam on three Civilians who are very normal and enjoy life as it is as we see in the beginning. There are not enough words that I can speak of this masterpiece. It was Michael Cimino's Biggest hit, although his second movie was a flop, but this movie made the second one watchable !

f You haven't Seen this movie You have no Idea how you are so lucky because I would give anything to see it for the first time again, It is so challenging emotionally and mentally. Michael Cimino at his BEST EVER, Robert De Niro at his most Demanding role, Christopher Walken at his First big hit and Oscar, John Savage proves himself worthy of being called a great actor and John Cazale's Last movie before his Death .. One of the very few Masterpieces Hollywood has ever done .. See this movie and pray for me.
