12. Platoon (1986)
Trending
Oliver Stone's Platoon is one of the honest accounts of the Vietnam War that draws on Oliver Stone's experience as a soldier. The movie follows a young recruit, Chris Taylor, who is caught between two morally opposed sergeants in the personages of Willem Dafoe and Tom Berenger. Gripping performances coupled with unflinching depictions of combat fetched it four Academy Awards, which included Best Picture. In 2024, it’s lauded for exposing the psychological scars of war, resonating with new generations seeking to understand the complexities of Vietnam’s legacy.
