GodzillaFan54 ◊ 2024-01-28 15:29	A harrowing anti-war movie about a young American soldier serving in World War I who "survives" an artillery blast and is so badly mutilated that he is left with no arms, legs, eyes, a face, or a voice. He cannot see, hear, or speak, rendering him a prisoner inside what's left of his body. The scenes set in the present are in black-and-white, everything else (dreams and flashbacks) are in colour. A particularly lachrymose film, as anyone who's watched it can atest. Some interesting trivia, Metallica used a lot of footage in their music video for "One", which has been declared one of the greatest metal songs of all time. They approached the owners of this film's copyright to renew their contract to allow them to keep using footage in the music video but instead found that it'd be cheaper to just buy the film outright so that's what they did; Metallica owns the rights to Johnny Got His Gun so whenever it's re-released on physical media, Metallica includes the "One" music video as a bonus feature. This was the only movie that Dalton Trumbo directed. Badly-obscured cars in stock footage Set from the 1890s to World War I, though it jumps back and forth.
