   Sorry, translation Italian - English mechanics. Song Huong the perfume river / The work of Stanley Kubrick cast the viewer, inevitably and fortunately I add, some really old-time, real, proactive, without obfuscation and if I add dynamite from all points of view, I do not think being away from his "mind". In Full Metal Jacket, the narrative is strong, subversive, terrorist, violent, intimidating, "forces", "involving" and "start" sensory experiences in a mental process immediate and concrete. And 'with these realities that man, master and prey of their senses must necessarily be measured. E ', the same man who loses his gender-biased to rise and transmigrate to the Subject / History - The protagonist / narrator. So I understand. Kubrick does not like to present itself often, is the 1980 Shining, Full Metal Jacket in 1987. Seven years, seven long years, but why? Because, probably, the "Monolith" needs time to add a new / true piece movie universe. I like to think that all of Kubrick's work, has pledged to defend a eusociality pestered with micro / macro economic Powers / politicians. The film. The instructor Gerheim protagonist of the novel "The Short-Timers" by Gustav Hasford referenced Kubrick, is transformed into the fearsome Sergeant Hartman Ronald Lee Ermey /. Who Hartman? Remember the '"I Want You for U.S. Army?" With the index pointing Uncle Sam? Well, Hartman is the son of that idea degenerated. (Hartman who are out there?) It 'a military instructor was born to destroy the human personality with appurtenances. It 'so good as to become a victim of its own "royalties". Following Pyle will make a wonderful essay by the lessons learned from Hartman. And 'assisted in this performance by the famous 7.62 caliber Full Metal Jacket! In the second part of the film is to tell the soldier Joker mistakes / horrors of an army in disarray. Many scenes are strong and many truths still shrouded in mystery / So, Kubrick offers his reflections to the public and it does work pouring in severity, technicality, fussiness. How much did the fight against communism? I do not know. One thing I know. Many soldiers could not tell the Song Huong the perfume river / as many children of the same bank of the river have not yet achieved. Luckiness!… Expand
