During the final ceremony of drinking from a dual wine cup, the convention is the couple will have a good life if they don't spill any wine but the camera catches some drips on the bride's dress. Mike spends a lot of the time at the bar drinking and watching Linda from afar. This is a very long scene and sets up the relationships and foreshadows some of what is to come. At the Russian wedding reception, there is lots of drinking, ethnic dancing and wedding rituals. Mike is upset and walks out when Linda shows up. She leaves for the wedding and takes her belongings to Nick's where she asks to stay for a while. Linda brings him his breakfast and he hits her a couple of times leaving a bruise on her face. Her father, an abusive and hallucinating alcoholic, is upstairs and alone, having an alcoholic attack and has trashed his room. Nick's girlfriend, Linda, makes breakfast for her father while wearing a bridesmaid's dress. The hall is decorated with the boy's high school pictures and lots of American flags. Before they go, Steven marries the pregnant Angela, with whom he has not had sex, and their wedding party is also the men's farewell party. But their placid life is soon to be changed after three enlist in the airborne infantry and go to Vietnam. They work together, hang out in a local bar and enjoy weekends deer hunting.

In the Western Pennsylvania foundry town of Clairton, during the late 1960s, Russian-American steel workers Michael (Robert De Niro), Steven (John Savage), Nick (Christopher Walken), Stanley (John Cazale), John (George Dzundza), and Axel (Chuck Aspegren) are preparing for two rites of passage: the marriage of one and military service for three of them.

The synopsis below may give away important plot points. The three may be the only ones to help the other(s) who didn't come out the other end in one piece, either physically or emotionally. The three will find that the community hopes of their time in Vietnam is not what they want, their Vietnam experience which will inextricably be tied to the way they deal with life, with those that head home, either wanting or able, unwilling or unable to express how the war has damaged them. Besides Linda's, there are many issues underneath the otherwise happy and joyous surface of the community, that surface joy only ramped up with the wedding and everyone, including the three subjects, seeing Michael, Nick and Steven as the honor and duty of them all and of the country. Steven is not the only one who will leave behind a girl, Nick in a serious relationship with Linda, she wanting to escape the abuse inflicted on her by her alcoholic father. In the days before they leave, they will attend to a few items, Steven who will marry Angela in a lavish event for the entire community, and the male friends, without Steven, who will go deer hunting the following morning, a highly ritualized activity especially for Michael. Michael, Nick and Steven are only three of a group of friends and coworkers at the local steel mill in their small town of Clairton, Pennsylvania - they and most of their community blue collar of Eastern European heritage - but they are the only three in the community who will imminently be heading off into combat in Vietnam.

A unique is not surprising that Cimino didn't have another movie in him after something this wrenching.1968. Meryl Streep glows, DeNiro has seldom been more affecting. Even now, the Russian Roulette scene (in context, people: watch all that comes before it first) is the single most intense sequence I've seen it makes the end of "Reservoir Dogs" seem like a cartoon. I don't want to see it again.but I want you to see it. But I looked at it today on cable and found that not much had changed about it, or me.

After seeing it in a very high quality theater on its initial release, I walked out thinking it was easily one of the best movies I had ever seen - and that I never wanted to see it again. This is one of the very few post-war Hollywood films that shows a sincere reverence for the lives of small town Americans. But because the (primary) victims here are recognizable American archetypes, Americans will feel this in their gut more than any other war film I know of. It could be any war, with any combatants. The vets who don't like it have it wrong, as do the Vietnamese who found it racist. No, this is not the best film about the Vietnam War it's hardly about Vietnam at all.
