One of the most harrowing Hollywood films to confront the legacy of the Vietnam War, CASUALTIES OF WAR is based on the true story of a squad of soldiers caught in a moral quagmire. Witness to a vile crime, Private Eriksson (Michael J. Fox) is forced to stand alone against his fellow soldiers and commanding officer Sergeant Meserve (Sean Penn), a powerful and charismatic man pushed over the edge of barbarism by the terror and brutality of combat. With sweeping scope, intense action, and raw power, Brian De Palma creates a devastating and unforgettable tale of one man’s quest for sanity and justice amid the chaos of war.
