"Jarhead"

Post when you've seen this movie.

If you have family or friends in Iraq, see the movie at your own risk.

I agree that there is a whole other story to be told about the girlfriends and wives who are left at home, fending for themselves with a letter-writing lover across seas fighting for her rights. Sure she appreciates it and of course she loves him. But he's out doing Lord knows what and may never return and she has to live her life every day as if that doesn't kill her inside.

Not to mention, note that when the boys got back, it's as if they've been asleep for a year... Like they think the world has stopped for them and that nothing in their friends' and families' lives have changed. The whole world has been living for a year with only the memory of you and suddenly you're back from your coma and we both have to learn how to integrate you back in to our lives.

I'm sure there's a movie out there about that half of the story, right? (I'm holding my breath)
