2-0 out of 5 stars so many movies like this
there are so many movies like this....movies which showed the american hardships during the war. every movie blames the vietnamese as being evil. particularly this one. in every war....there are people who suffer.....and people who do the suffering. vietnamese people suffered in the war too...even more so than the americans. every vietnamese was affected with the war. lets not forget the my lai massacre and countless other incidents. both sides were to blame...not just the vietnamese. and because of that i dont give this movie a high rating.

4-0 out of 5 stars COMMUNISM WAS EVIL, EVIL, EVIL
One lonely conservative voice has been trying to shout out from the "wilderness" for years. Lionel Chetwynd is a writer/producer who made "The Hanoi Hilton", which actually described the North Vietnamese as the evil torturers they were. The "Hilton" was the moniker given the infamous prison camp where American POW's were kept while Jane Fonda was flirting with our enemies. Liberal film reviewers criticized it. Do not believe them. It is good stuff.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Hanoi Hilton
I was in the Air Force during the war and have over 100 combat missions. This is the most accurate presentation of the war that is available. It is a story that needed telling and still needs to be told. It describes the situation of the American prisoners in Vietnam in an accurate and truthfull manner. Everyone should see it.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Hanor Hilton
This movie shows what terrrible hardships these prisoners had to endure. I had the priviladge to talk to one of the wives of these heros and she confirmed a lot of events shown in this movie. Also stated that she was not allowed to even mention that her husband was shot down for six-months. Tell her that this movie was "too long and over emotional"!! Most americans just did not want to face reality during this sad time in our Country's history. I was there during 1966-1968 and in Sigon 1970.

4-0 out of 5 stars The best Vietnam War film ever made.
I think that this the best Vietnam War film ever made since The Green Berets. What I like about this movie is that it explains about the subject of American Prisoners of War in Vietnam. The film depicted the harsh reality of the suffering and torture that was inflicted on them in these prisoner of war camps. I really enjoyed this film. ... Read more

Description

This is the untold story of Varian Fry (William Hurt), a forgotten hero of World War II. He built an elaborate underground rescue network that managed to save some of the most influential cultural figures of our age. He saved artists (such as Marc Chagall), writers, and scientists. The safe arrival of these treasured individuals in the United States permanently changed the face of American culture and enriched all of our lives forever. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Simplifies the Complexities of History
This movie is loosely based on the life and work of Varian Fry, an American intellectual who went to Vichy France to save European cultural luminaries from fascist persecution and death. The movie simplifies a complex person and situation, and, as such, falls short of the true history. I do think William Hurt does a good job portraying Fry. I have shown this movie to history classes, but found the pacing is a little slow for most high school students (although a minority appreciated the fact that an American also played a role in saving Jews). To people interested in learning more about Varian Fry, I highly recommend Andy Marino's fascinating character study, A QUIET AMERICAN: THE SECRET WAR OF VARIAN FRY. To history teachers looking for good (and appropriate) films to show students on rescuers during the Holocaust, you might consider the RESCUERS: STORIES OF COURAGE series.
