The film is rich in archival-memory and first-person recollections of many key figures, of higher and lower or no rank at all.

There's nothing innovative in the filmmaking, it's simply a gracefully told story - tense here; poignant there - with strong detailing.

Rating: 4/5 --
It's a fascinating saga of institutional denial and personal commitment - both of which are somehow bound up in the personal arc of Graham Martin.

Kennedy's take on this dark and convoluted quagmire finds its balance somewhere between oblique reportage and post-hoc apologia.

This is both a gripping suspense story and a profound moral drama.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
Archived film of the final, chaotic push to clear the embassy compound by helicopter is as dramatic as any thriller, heightened by stories of bravery and risk.

Product Description:
This Academy-award nominated documentary traces the chaos and upheaval of the final hours of the Vietnam War through the eyes of key witnesses to the Fall of Saigon: a disillusioned ambassador, a colonel who courageously arranged for the evacuation of South Vietnamese fighters in defiance of official policy, and the tragic story of the last Americans killed in conflict.
