Born On The Fourth Of July (Collectors Edition) DVD

Film Description

The talent of the director and Cruise's integrity and dedication as an actor are evident in this searing portrayal of the disillusionment and angst of a young disabled ex-serviceman after Vietnam.

Based on a true story, the film follows the young Ron Kovic from a zealous teen who eagerly volunteers for the Vietnam War, to an embittered veteran paralysed from the chest down, who emerges as a voice for the disenchanted. Nominated for eight Academy Awards, it won two, for best direction and best editing.
