It's on utube if you want to relive your youth. They don't even give a copyright warning.??? If you have 1 and a half hours of your life to throw away then watch it.

I've always liked the bit that follows that, where he punches Joker, and the camera looks up into Hartman's face - "You will not laugh ! You will not cry ! You will learn by the numbers - I will teach you !"...............jesus, talk about a death stare ! I reckon if you look up "intimidation" in a dictionary, there's just a picture of that stare. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I reckon if you look up "intimidation" in a dictionary, there's just a picture of that stare. The History Channel did a bit on Kubrick and they interviewed Ermey about his role. I don't think he actually acted any of it. It was just how he did it when he was with recruits. He opened up about his time as a drill instructor and told about how much pressure they were under to get them battle ready for Vietnam. He mentioned that they'd check the obituaries to see if any of their lads were killed in country and you can tell it was genuinely moving for him. Decent bloke by all accounts. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Meece 1,957 Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 Most of all of this is American hype. He was in the marines , eventually a staff Sgt in the aviation dept. in the service from 1961 to 1972. Medically discharged. 30 years after he left the service he was made an honorary gunnery sgt and a drill sgt retrospectively. Not everything that you see is real. it's like a pigeon coming into a decoy pattern. Basicaly he was an actor. RIP though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rabbit Hunter 6,608 Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 It's a great film and then goes totally shite once they finish their training, in fact I don't think I've ever watched it to the end. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
