An obsessed director, a cast of unknowns, and a country on the brink of revolution. Somehow these ingredients produced one of the great Vietnam movies. Hugo Rifkind of The Times goes further, making the case that Platoon is the greatest Vietnam movie of them all.
Hugo's novel \"Rabbits\", about a different kind of teenage battle, is now out in paperback.
