Abstract
A reading of three popular films about the Vietnam war (The Deer Hunter, Apocalypse Now, and Rambo) places them against historical grids of war narratives; such popular and folk heroes as Tarzan, Superman, Batman, cowboys, and private eyes; and myths of social identity. The films express both the polyvalent symbols for all in war as well as the symbolic effort to recuperate Vietnam in imagination if not in fact.
