"An extraordinary move." -The New York Times

Peter Davis' landmark documentary Hearts And Minds unflinchingly confronts the Untied States' involvement in Vietnam. Using a wealth of sources -- from interviews to newsreels to documentary footage of the conflict at home and abroad -- Davis constructs a powerfully affecting portrait of the disastrous effects of war. Explosive, persuasive and shocking, Hearts And Minds is an overwhelming emotional experience and the controversial winner of the 1974 Academy Award® for Best Documentary.
