Best films to watch on Veterans Day
Jane Fonda and Jon Voight both won Oscars for their performances in the Vietnam-era drama, "Coming Home." Fonda stars as Sally, a married hospital volunteer who befriends and eventually falls in love with Luke (Voight), a paraplegic vet. Sally's husband (Bruce Dern) is stationed in Vietnam and soon returns with his own emotional scars from the fighting. "Coming Home" was released just a few years after Fonda's notoriously image-damaging trip to North Vietnam, which the actress herself would denounce decades later as an "unforgivable mistake." This film helped soften some of the public backlash against her.
