Born on the Fourth of July
Overview
The performance that made everyone take Tom Cruise seriously. Ron Kovic goes from gung-ho Marine to paralyzed veteran to furious activist, and Stone films his disillusionment with righteous anger. The homecoming parade sequence is shattering — a hero returns broken and the country looks away. Fierce, sorrowful, essential. It's a tough sit, no question. But it earns its place among the great American films.
