Curiosidades
Nick Nolte wore a back brace during much of the filming to maintain a rigid Marine posture.

Pifias
In 1971, the U.S. military would have not paid to return old, obsolete helicopters and other junk seen on the deck of Ray's ship back to the U.S. It would have been given to South Vietnam or abandoned or scrapped in that country.

Citas
Ray Hicks: When I left the Marines I made myself a promise. Never again am I going to be fucked around by morons. The next mother who tries to make me back off is going to have to live it out with me.

The Drug War

A soldier returning from Vietnam agrees to smuggle some heroin for a friend but the Feds are on to the scheme. Nolte is dynamic as the cynical war vet who becomes a reluctant drug runner. Weld is fine as a drug-addict hippie. However, it is Moriarty who steals the film with his hilariously deadpan performance as a somewhat dim-witted fellow who sees drug dealing as a way to make a quick buck. The banter among Moriarty and agents Masur and Sharkey is often quite amusing. Although it opens in Saigon, Vietnam is not the focus of this film, unlike two high-profile films released the same year, "The Deer Hunter" and "Coming Home." Instead, this is a morality tale about drugs.
