>> JOURNEY FROM THE FALL
>>
>> "Platoon, Born on the Fourth of July, Full Metal Jacket, Casualties
>> of War, and First Blood?the ?80s saw a flurry of Vietnam War movies.
>> A few were excellent, but none came close to depicting a Vietnamese
>> point of view. First-time feature maker Ham Tran aims to rectify that
>> in Journey From The Fall, which follows the Boat People from the fall
>> of Saigon to harsh Communist re-education camps, pirate-infested boat
>> journeys, and the struggles of adjusting to life in America. Shot in
>> Thailand (because permit requests were denied in Vietnam) and largely
>> funded by Vietnamese-American businesses, the movie is truly epic,
>> honest, and heartfelt." -- Martin Wong, Giant Robot
>>
>> Go out and watch Ham Tran's JOURNEY FROM THE FALL (look for it in
>> GR 47, too) at a theatre near you!
