Let's just say if this was me things would have gone a little differently.

I thought an older guy like the sheriff would be more respectful to a veteran?

>>213474742
The sheriff was a veteran.

Korean vet dabbing on Vietnam "muh peeteesdee" boomer.

>>213474742
Nah there was a huge stigma around Vietnam vets being psychos, druggies and baby killers, and there was no jingoist yellow ribbon support our troops propaganda on the talmudvision back then.

You try to be nice to some people

Brian Denehey in this movie is so awesome. It takes a high level of acting skill to play a convincing asshole.

does the deputy not know about the us constitution and the bill of rights? i don't get it

>Welcome to our little town, young man!
>I see you're a member of our armed forces
>As a veteran myself, let me be the first to say; thanks for your service
>I'm glad you helped prevent the spread of communism over there
>Listen, some of the guys are getting together at the V.A. hall later on for a barbecue
>You should stick around for awhile son, meet some of 'em
>But first we have to talk about the serious problem I have with you...
>That's right, you drifter son of a bitch...
>You don't have a cup of hot cocoa and a slice of pie in your hand yet
>Come on, let me buy you lunch stranger
>I'll call home and have the wife make up the guest room for you
>Please, I insist, as sheriff of Hope, Washington it's my duty to give you a warm welcome

They literally came back crying about mental trauma after having to walk one day through the jungle, turned into deranged alcoholics and asked for welfare.
Meanwhile their dads went through WW2 and never even mentioned it.

I watched this recently and I kinda enjoyed the 80s Cascadian smalltown vibe

any other kinos in this setting?

>>213475820
I think they should've mentioned it

WW2 vets typically experienced 40 days of combat and then got rotated so they can get breaks in between the war. Vietnam vets had to do 240 days a year.

Not to mention it was a war they won and were celebrated triumphantly afterwards. You come back and it's like 'wow my sacrifice was not in vain, I am a beloved part of the community and life is great'

In the book the sheriff was the good guy. He was a Korean war vet that hated the pansy ass Vietnam vets that used war as an excuse to be losers. Not to mention he was just a basic Marine back in the day and he still outsmarted and beat Rambo, who I might add was supposed to be a badass Green Beret still in his prime.

If you walk in the USA in about 95% of non urban city centers people are mocking you every other car driving by, even residential areas if it's clear you're doing it out of neccessity

The book was so much better that it ruined the movie for me.
