I am watching the whole 2017 PBS series about the Vietnam War to educate myself https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Vietnam_War_(TV_series) . 17 hours and it moves along at quite a clip. The lead up to the war is included, so there's masses to cover, what with French colonization, the Bay of Pigs, Kennedy's death, the civil rights movement and so on.
I don't think I'll be able to enjoy Vietnam war films any more. Johnson's lies and the false premises for US escalation are so jarring. Johnson only sent US forces into combat to get elected. Otherwise North Vietnam might have won the war by '67.
