Didnt he do a Vietnam era movie that was pretty accurate? Of course it was based off a book so he couldnt go completely crazy with it.
Ya he starred in We Were Soldiers. Having read the book I think besides the Band of Brothers Series it is the most accurate war movie to date. It followed the memoirs of the Major he portrayed to the letter. I dont think Mel produced this actual film though, I think he just starred in it. All the best, Jon
Mel Gibson also starred in another Vietnam flick in 1990 called "Air America".
