Another one that I had all ready to go!!! I didn't think anybody would remember that move - one of my all time favorites.

could we go this far? Charlie Sheen playing "Chris Taylor" in Platoon, Oliver Stones "semi biographical" movie about his experiences in Vietnam as an Infantryman.

I was just about to show the same thing. And along those lines is Willem Defoe as Sgt. Elias from "Platoon" next to the real Sgt. Juan Angel Elias who served with Oliver Stone in Vietnam.
