Delayed stress syndrome among Vietnam veterans is explored in this heartfelt drama starring Robert De Niro, Kathy Baker and Ed Harris. Based on the play 'Strange Snow' by Stephen Metcalfe. De Niro and Harris were best buddies until one fateful mission. Now the emotionally crippled Harris doesn't want his war buddy hanging around with his lonely school teacher sister. The performances are top notch.
