Plot The true story of Anthony Swofford, a 20 year old recruit in United States Marine Corps. His time training, as a sniper, and eventually being shipped off to Saudi Arabia to assist with the Persian Gulf War, and the Desert Shield, and Desert Storm conflicts. Direction Directed by Sam Mendes, who captures the gritty wartime brilliantly. I loved his use of bright, almost blinding lights depicting the harsh environments that the men live in.

In our series "Have You Seen?" we discuss a movie that some of us know well and others have just now seen for the first time. Our conversation focuses on the experience of someone watching the movie for the first time today and their reaction. This week we revisit Ring (リング, Ringu), a 1988 supernatural horror movie directed by Jideo Nakata and starring Nanako Matsushima and Hiroyuki Sanada, a journalist who investigates a series of deaths linked to a mysterious VHS tape. We talk about how this movie straddles the line of horror and mystery and why it wasn't like other horror or ghost movies we're used to, the numerous things this movie has in common with The Exorcist, whether the investigation that fills the bulk of the movie is as compelling as it could be or whether it relies a bit too much on convenience and coincidence, how the movie's use of technology and normalcy has aged and what a modern movie that does the same thing would look like, and much more.  Related playlists: Horror movie reviews: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5nEzAuLhmPeQVt6eJGStPn 90's movie reviews: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4bJzTdH4xq7jwuTgStjAMZ Halloween season reviews: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/58HVIHc2oHh93OrGsDRuuY
