Marla L There are a handful or two of movies made for TV that stays with you for life. This is one of those movies. First of all, the performances by lead actors Carol Burnett and Ned Beatty are stupendous and gut wrenching. Secondly, it's the subject matter that was tackled to the ground and exposed for the first time and that subject matter is known as ‘friendly fire’. This movie is responsible for educating all of us about it and none of this would have taken place if it weren't for the guts and integrity of Peg Mullen, the mother of the murdered soldier. She never took 'no' for an answer' but rather fought to find out the truth from the government. Truths don’t always come out, especially when it comes to war. Thanks to Mullen and her commitment to her son's memory, we know much more than we did back then. Peg Mullen truly honored her child's memory by persevering and cutting through the red tape. Watch this movie. It won 4 Emmys for a reason. You will feel, learn and grow and you will never look at Carol Burnett or war the same way again. In addition, the next time you hear the stats of deaths in any current war or those of the past, you will always think about how many soldiers were killed by 'friendly fire'. This is An Absolute Must-See. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/19/24 Full Review Audience Member Carol Burnett in a dramatic roll is wonderful.
