Moreover, with its emphasis on soldiers returning from war with post-traumatic stress syndrome, facing an uncertain economic climate, and strained domestic lives, the film speaks with emotional power directly to contemporary issues, including the devastating injuries and insecurites faced by soldiers returning home from combat in Afghanistan and Iraq today. Among the topics discussed are American neorealism, aesthetics, war and homecoming, and more."--Provided by publisher.BFI film classics.791.43/72PER004000PER004030ART057000bisacshKozloff Sarah625446UtOrBLWUtOrBLWUkLoBPBOOK9910816853703321The best years of our lives4127437UNINA
