ORIGINAL: MrsWargamer I have heard a lot of people react oddly to this, but of all the Vietnam films I have ever watched, Good Morning America has always been the best one. Robin more than any other actor gave us a film that REALLY showed us how stupid that war was. And the man was a comedian. He wasn't one of our tough guy greats, he was a comedian. Sometimes, it takes a master of the idiotic and the crazy to portray the idiotic and the crazy. He wasn't just funny, he was a superb actor. He was a cut above. So many of the guys I see on Netflix, they are funny, but they do so in such an average ordinary fashion. Some days I'm afraid to look for how many of the greats of my youth are still with us. It's sad to sometimes discover the information. warspite1 Its strange (maybe?) but so many comedians/comediennes make really good serious actors/actresses. You must be like me - of a certain age - yes its is sad, and scary too [:(]
