Curiosidades
The opening scene where the vets in the hospital are talking was unscripted. They were real Vietnam vets discussing their own views about the war. Jon Voight was supposed to have added to the dialogue, but out of respect, stayed silent and listened.

Pifias
Not only is Bob's long hair and mustache out of place for a Marine captain, there isn't a military haircut on any able-bodied soldier in the film.

Citas
Wounded Vet #1: Some of us, not all of us, some of us need to justify to ourselves what the f*ck we did there. So, if we come back and say what we did was a waste, what happened to us was a waste, some of us can't live with it.
Wounded Vet #2: So, they'd do it again.
Wounded Vet #1: So they say, well, they gotta keep, man, they gotta make, you know, inside of themselves, they're lyin' to themselves, continuously, saying, "What I did, was okay, because this is what I got from it, man. I have to justify being paralyzed. I have to justify killing people. So, I say it was okay." But, how many guys, though, can make the reality and say, "What I did was wrong and what all this other sh*t was wrong, man" - and still be able to live with themselves, because they're crippled for the rest of their f*ckin' life.

Créditos adicionales
Four members of the film crew are designated as "Friends who did everything".

Personal ramifications of the Vietnam War

RELEASED IN 1978 and directed by Hal Ashby, "Coming Home" is a drama taking place on the shores of Southern California about a lonely Captain's wife (Jane Fonda) who befriends a bohemian, Vi (Penelope Milford), when her husband (Bruce Dern) is deployed to 'Nam in 1968. She volunteers at a Veteran's hospital where she meets a bitter paraplegic, who happens to be an old classmate (Jon Voight). Robert Carradine plays Vi's brother, who suffers PTSD.

Like all great dramas, "Coming Home" is realistic and takes its time to establish the characters and their situations. The emotions run the gamut of the human experience. The performances by the principals are superlative. The outstanding soundtrack includes twenty hits from the late 60s by artists like The Stones, The Beatles, Hendrix, Buffalo Springfield, Joplin, The Chambers Brothers, Jefferson Airplane, Dylan and so on. The movie's not so much "anti-war" as it is just depicting the way it was for combat Vets after coming home.

THE FILM RUNS 127 minutes and was shot in Manhattan Beach, near Los Angeles. WRITER: Waldo Salt & Robert C. Jones based on Nancy Dowd's story.
