Michael Cimino's The Deer Hunter was met with both critical and commercial success upon its release in 1978. However it was also highly controversial and came to be seen as a powerful statement on the human cost of America's longest war and as a colonialist glorification of anti-Asian violence. Brad Prager's study of the film considers its significance as a war movie and contextualizes its critical reception. Drawing on an archive of contemporaneous materials as well as an in-depth analysis of the film's lighting mise-en-scène multiple cameras and shifting depths of field Prager examines how the film simultaneously presents itself as a work of cinematic realism while problematically blurring the lines between fact and fiction. While Cimino felt he had no responsibility to historical truth depicting a highly stylized version of his own fantasies about the Vietnam War Prager argues that The Deer Hunter's formal elements were used to bolster his troubling depictions of war and race. Finally comparing the film with later depictions of US-led intervention such as Albert and Allen Hughes's Dead Presidents (1995) and Spike Lee's Da Five Bloods (2020) Prager illuminates The Deer Hunter's major presumptions blind spots and omissions while also presenting a case for its classic status.
