Veteran’s Day is coming up and what better way to spend it than climbing on the couch with a loved one to watch a movie? Dean Stockwell stars in “Citizen Soldier,” a compassionate tale about a Vietnam veteran who learns to deal with his past and gains hope for his future. If you’re looking for something less dramatic and bit more surreal, catch Stockwell, along with Michael Cera and John C. Reilly in their new film, “Entertainment,” following the life of an old and aging comedian looking to revamp his career. While it won’t teach you much about compassion, it’s sure to entertain. Each movie follows the protagonist in a crucial point in his life, one just returning from war and feeling suicidal, and the other at the end of his career and feeling lost. Despite their prickly pasts and bleak futures, each looks for some sort of change and with the help of family and friends, they may just do that.
Enjoy your Veteran's day, and thank a Veteran!
