Coming Home

One of the most compelling pictures ever made about the shattering aftermath of the Vietnam War, Coming Home earned eight Academy Award nominations and won three for Best Actress (Jane Fonda), Actor (Jon Voight) and Original Screenplay. Coming Home is a heartrending and unforgettable examination of a critical period in our nation's history and an uncompromising, extraordinarily moving film directed by the great Hal Ashby (The Last Detail).

When Marine Captain Bob Hyde (Dern) leaves for Vietnam, his wife Sally (Fonda) volunteers at a local hospital. There she meets Luke Martin (Voight), a former sergeant whose war injury has left him a paraplegic. Embittered with rage and filled with frustration, Luke finds new hope and confidence through his growing intimacy with Sally. The relationship transforms Sally's feelings about life, love, and the horrors of war. And when, wounded and disillusioned, Sally's husband returns home, all three must grapple with the full impact of a brutal distant war that has changed their lives forever.
