Full Metal Jacket

For this assignment you create a misleading T.V. guide synopsis of a movie or show that uses actual facts to distort the story.  I chose the film Full Metal Jacket and make it sound almost patriotic or noble in its portrayal of Marine life.  I think Stanley Kubrick had different intentions.

 

Full Metal Jacket

“Darwinian study of Marine Corp life during Vietnam.  Portrays the efficiency and splendor of Marine life and follows the struggle of one undisciplined Marine as he eventually overcomes his shortcomings and finds his purpose as a long-distanced rifleman.”
