  • In the summer of 1970, once public opinion had turned against the American presence in Vietnam, Frederick Wiseman followed a group of recruits during their nine-week basic training at Fort Knox. "The U.S. Army is undefeatable," declares a confident commandant. But in this documentary, Wiseman reveals that the entire army system is in crisis. The sensitive nature of the situation becomes apparent when a recruit asks if someone was ever killed with the rifle that he is being issued. Every self-willed sound gets stifled with a dictatorial "Just do as you're told." We see young men crawling, marching, fighting, encountering teargas, and creeping through a replica of a Vietnamese village, but Wiseman shows us a lesson in brushing teeth as well. Just as funny is the scene in which a bespectacled recruit named Hickman competes with the likes of Charlie Chaplin in his vain attempts to get the hang of the marching beat. The humor grows nasty after Hickman attempts suicide and cannot get forgiveness from the chaplain, and it becomes increasingly clear that this boy is a tragic metaphor for a system in which there is no room for individuals.

  • BASIC TRAINING DATES/SHOWTIMES: Thursday, April 20 2:20, 6:00 (1971) Eight stinking summer weeks at Fort Knox of personal hygiene classes, weapons drills, bayonet practice, marching, chemical warfare, disciplinary action, and counseling sessions – the last needed for a misfit private so hapless he attempts suicide. 16mm. Approx. 89 mins. Critical quotes: “Fred Wiseman makes documentaries better than Napoleon made war, and his latest — Basic Training — might even make Napoleon nostalgic…” – Bud Collins, The Boston Globe “Wiseman uncovers human conditions in inhuman situations… In the marching, the hand-to-hand combat, the loss of identity, Wiseman, without narration, conveys the humor and sadness of the situation. He not only imparts the essence of military basic training, he latches on to young men thrust into maturity, some before their time. It is a gripping experience.” – Variety

  • To get the dates straight, Basic Training was released in 1971, after being filmed during the summer of 1970. Stanley Kubrick’s Full Metal Jacket came out in 1987. And if we need to be reminded, America’s military involvement in Viet Nam was at its highest level in the late 1960’s and lasted until 1973. Active anti-war protests began in earnest in early 1967, and in May 1970 National Guardsmen at Kent State University fired at protesting students, killing four and wounding nine more. This last event would have occurred just a short time before Basic Training was filmed. Also, draft lotteries began in December 1969, so the recruits in Basic Training would likely be a combination of volunteers and draftees. And to finish the timeline stuff, Full Metal Jacket’s first half, the part dealing with basic training, takes place in about late 1967, so all these time periods are very close together.
