Johnny Got His Gun
|
In the 1950s Senator Joe McCarthy blacklisted many American citizens for alleged Communist ties. Anybody who spoke out against America or war was a traitor. One such man was Dalton Trumbo with 'Johnny Got His Gun' being the best example of an anti war statement. On the last day of the First World War a young solider (Joe) is involved in an explosion. He wakes up in hospital a shell of the man he used to be. Now without his arms and legs the use of his eyes ears or mouth yet remaining conscious and still able to reason he struggles to decipher between reality and nightmares. Trapped inside his own mind when he finally learns how to communicate he asks that he be used as a shocking demonstration of the horrors of war or be left to die. Johnny got his Gun inspired Metallica's Grammy Awarding winning song 'One' making the film famous to a new generation of MTV viewers and young audiences around the world.
