1969

THREE MOVIES IV'E WATCHED TODAY, THREE TO CHECK OFF ON MY LIST OF RDJ FILMS TO WATCH! MY FAVORITE OF THE THREE WOULD BE 1969, IT HAS AN INTERESTING STORY INVOLVING THE WAR IN VIETNAM.  IT'S NOT SET IN VIETNAM OR DIRECTED SPECIFICALLY OF THE WAR.  IT'S ABOUT SOME KIDS IN COLLEGE, WHO GO TO COLLEGE TO AVOID THE DRAFT (WHICH ACTUALLY DID HAPPEN) AND IT'S A FIGHT OF OPPOSITION TO THE WAR THROUGH THE EYES OF THESE KIDS. THEY JUST WANT TO BE FREE, TO TRAVLE THE ROADS!
