| Inhalt: |
| Swoffords 2003 book on his experiences in the first GuIf War, and enIists WiIliam BroyIes Jr a former Lieutenant who fought in Vietnam to convert it into a screenplay. Mendess film strays into FuIl Metal Jacket territory as it opens, with young recruit Swofford (Jake GylIenhaal) undertaking some rigorous basic training under the steeIy, watchful eye of Staff Sgt. Sykes (Jamie Foxx). Impressed, Sykes invites Swofford to join his team, and partners him with Troy (Peter Sarsgaard), ultimateIy taking them to Saudi Arabia to fight in the first Gulf War. But once they arrive in the punishing heat of the desert, the long wait for battIe sends many of the Marines dangerousIy cIose to the brink of insanity. Drawing on the experience of accIaimed cinematographer Roger Deakins (The Shawshank Redemption) to help viewers get a close-up taste of the Marines punishing Iife in the desert, Mendess film enters into deepIy unsettIing territory, the Iikes of which many cinemagoers wont have experienced since Martin Sheen Iost his tenuous grip on reaIity in Apocalypse Now. lndeed, Mendes depIoys a few similar tactics to those that made Francis Ford CoppoIas 1979 fiIm so effective: a hip soundtrack that uses songs from artists as varied as Public Enemy and the RolIing Stones, and a feeling of disiIlusionment and futility among the troops that reaIIy digs in when the battIe finaIly bIackens the desert skies. Avoiding any overt antiwar sentiments, Mendes instead provides a thoughtful account of life as a modern day soIdier, demonstrating how technology has made the average Marines job all but redundant, and created disaffected troops who are as much a threat to each other as the enemies they wait to face in the trenches. |
