News Wire:
Once again, our host Nancy Lynn has chosen a wonderful DVS movie for us to
listen to on Friday evening July 3.  It is "Good Morning Vietnam" starring
Robin Williams.

In 1965, United States Air Force Airman Adrian Cronauer (Robin Williams)
arrives in Saigon from Crete to work as a DJ for the Armed Forces Radio
Service. His first contact is with Private First Class Edward Garlick
(Forest Whitaker), whom he persuades to help chase down a couple of pretty
local girls before taking him to the radio station.

Cronauer's irreverence contrasts sharply with the rest of the staff and soon
rouses the ire of two of his superiors, Lieutenant Steven Hauk (Bruno Kirby)
and Sergeant Major Dickerson (J. T. Walsh). Hauk adheres to strict Army
guidelines in terms of humor and music programming, while Dickerson is
annoyed by Cronauer's behavior in general. However, General Taylor (Noble
Willingham) and the other DJs quickly grow to like the new man and his brand
of comedy which begins as soon as he first goes on the air with a yell of
"Go-o-o-o-o-o-o-d morning, Vietnam!"

Cronauer's show consists of unpredictable humor segments mixed with news
updates (vetted by the station censors, which at one point causes Cronauer
to dryly comment 'Ooh, censor, censor, censor join the Army and mark
things!') and rock and roll records that are frowned upon by his superiors.
Hauk finds nothing funny about any of it and tries, without success, to get
him to change his approach.

Bring your favorite girl or guy and your virtual popcorn and join us on
Friday July 3.
