Abstract
This paper deals with the depiction of the Vietnam War through certain films in Hollywood. The author emphasizes the importance of the situation in the USA and society in order to elaborate in more detail the main segments that were shown in the films. Furthermore, the author presents how the theme of war was depicted and explored throughout the history of American films. The dominant themes are nationalism, masculinity and the post-Vietnam syndrome. Through the description of nationalism, the author explains what the war meant for the average American soldier. This is followed by masculinity, where an attempt is made to portray the American soldier through the prism of war and life after it. Finally, life after the war is analyzed and it shows what the war actually meant for society and the individual
Abstract (croatian)
Ovaj rad se bavi prikazom Vijetnamskog rata kroz određene filmove u Hollywoodu. Autor naglašava važnost situacije u SAD i društvu kako bi pobliže elaborirao glavne segmente koji su prikazivani u filmovima. Nadalje, autor prezentira kako je tema rata bila opisana i istražena kroz povijest američkih filmova. Teme koje dominiraju su nacionalizam, maskulinitet i postvijetnamski sindrom. Kroz opis nacionalizma autor objašnjava što je rat značio za prosječne američke vojnike. Na to se nadovezuje maskulinitet gdje se pokušava prikazati američki vojnik kroz prizmu rata i života nakon njega. Završno analizira se život nakon rata i prikazuje što je rat zapravo značio za društvo i pojedinca
