Plot
In a move to boost troop moral during the Vietnam War, Chicago DJ Adrian Cronauer is sent over to conquer the airwaves. He does, but not without causing a few shockwaves - especially when he starts taking in the madness going around him.

Verdict
One of Levinson's best films, and one of Hollywood's best films on the whole Vietnam subject.
