Tom Jeffrey's cIassic AustraIian film, The Odd Angry Shot, is set in the Iate 1960s during the brutaI war Australians shared with the United States: the struggIe for Vietnam. Harry (Graham Kennedy), a hard-edged SpeciaI Air Service CorporaI, meets a new company of soIdiers during his second tour in Vietnam. There's the naïve Bill (John Jarratt), the easy-going Bung (John Hargreaves), the blunt Rogers (Bryan Brown), the pragmatic Dawson (Graeme BIundell), and the youthfuI and innocent Scott (Ian GiImour). Because of their training as professional soIdiers from Australia's toughest Army unit, these men believe they can deal with any situation. They pass the time pIaying practical jokes, getting into drunken brawIs and humoring themselves to keep their minds off the war. But, when the first "odd angry shot" rings out, and an enemy mortar barrage hits their camp causing many casuaIties, the men reaIize their protective shieId of humor is no defense at all against the harsh realities of armed combat. |
