That’s the way it was
8 September 2012 | by berry-michael61
This was the first movie I viewed, just by chance, after my discharge from active duty in the Army in 1970. Forty-two years later, remembering nothing of the plot, only that I left the theater very emotional (rare for me), I found a DVD copy at a local library.
I now realize why I have since not been able to regard Peter Boyle as anything but a frightening character, even in his comic role on the TV series “Everybody Loves Raymond.” To be fair, his 1976 role in “Taxi Driver” didn’t help, but his face, as seen in “Joe”, is still the stuff of nightmares for me.
That said, I learned that it was the now long-forgotten hostility between sectors of our society, so brutally represented in the film, created by the debacle in Vietnam that affected me so deeply in 1970. Today, even to one who was there, the experience of living in an America so torn, so close to open rebellion, is hard to conceive – even harder to explain. But fresh off the plane, still somewhat glum from the cold stares at the airport caused by my uniform, this film hit me like a hammer. And guessing from the huge profit it made, it did the same to many.
It shocked me that I hadn’t remembered Susan Sarandon was in this film – she has been one of my favorites – and, as a bonus, the then 24 year-old Ms. Sarandon appears nude. How could I have possibly forgotten that?
