The floor cleaning solution we used at Taco Bell in 1995 was labeled “degreaser/desengrasadora.” It was not a brand name but it sounds flowery.

Johnny Got His Gun

Hey everybody! This week we are continuing our End Of Season Series, where we are discussing films by directors that make only one film with Dalton Trumbo's Johnny Got His Gun. Listen as we breakdown this nightmarish look at the aftermath of war and the damage it can leave behind. Enjoy!

Let's review some more 70's movies now!
Today we start with 
 #1(Bloody Town Hall 1979) This documentary filmed in 1971 was a labor of love to edit and get it released by 79. This is a bloody mess that at least I found super interesting. BTH captures an important time, by way of an extremely odd event in NYC where Feminists take on Douchey Norman Mailer, a whole lotta chaos, and someone filmed it. NYC Gay Liberation Front members can be seen here for brief cameo. Other writers here of note are Germaine Greer, Diana Trilling, Jill Johnston, and Betty Friedman, to name a few.
#2 is (Johnny got his gun 1971). This book was read by anyone in high school who had a Vet for an English teacher. Author and director here was famous blacklisted writer Dalton Trumbo, they made a bio pic about him with the meth making chemistry teacher from Breaking Bad. This films good and trippy, also extremely heavy and sad, also also METALLICA (listen to the song One for the plot). We love Donald Sutherland and he had just passed at the time of recording so we are slowly goin through the few DS films that we haven't already reviewed or showcased. Timothy Bottoms, Kathy Fields, and massive character actor Peter Brocco are here, along with the guy who became a tree in Mr. Sycamore. 
#3 (Badlands 1973) Ok this ones arty. The Dad of the guy from Platoon, and Carrie from Carrie star here. Carrie is groomed by the Apocalypse now guy to be with him and watch him play macho militia survivalist dude, after killing her father. 
#4 (Last American Hero 1973)Before he owned a video arcade in Tron, the guy from King Kong who loves magic was a moonshiner turned Southern hick nascar racer. Gary Busey helps him here, as well as Geraldine Fitzgerald, Valerie Perrrine, and Ned Beatty.
#5 (Cassanova 1976) Donald Sutherland has Mr. Burns in the Simpson's Dracula parody hair here. Director here is the one and only Federico Fellini, and if you wanna read something funny, go to IMDB and check out his biography, unless someone changes it, it is one one the weirdest mini bio's I have ever read. Film looks stunning, but is it good? Well, our hot takes are ready. 
#6 (north Dallas forty 1979) This film experienced some real big problems taking on Big Sports. It's foolish to think that it wouldn't be the same as taking on the mob or the government. This is based on a book from someone who was in it Peter Gent. I was bullied by jocks and organized sports fans as far back as I can remember. I seem to be missing the gene to enjoy pretending I play a role sporting events. I digress, because I could watch a movie about sports or a show about sports if it's good, and this is good. Nick Nolte, and Charles Durning are here, as well as the director of First Blood, where John Jay Rambo was once in charge of million dollar equipment and now he can't even get a job parking cars. Finally today we review another made for TV movie gem called
 #7(The 5.20 an hour dream 1980) Alice from the hit TV show Alice is here and very good as Ellen a rad Mom who needs her car repaired and takes on patriarchy in the factory. Can these butts allow her to do a job she can do even though she is not a man? 
As always thanks for listening and please give us the stars and a review, it can help peeps find the pod.

“How can you tell what's a dream or what's real when you can't even tell when you're awake or when you're asleep?”Dalton Trumbo's Controversial Anti-War ClassicIn 1971, blacklisted screenwriter Dalton Trumbo adapted his own 1939 anti-war novel Johnny Got His Gun for the big screen. The film marked Trumbo's directorial debut and only feature film as director. Set during World War I, the story follows a young American soldier who becomes a quadruple amputee after being hit by an artillery shell. Trumbo's powerful critique of war and its devastating effects on soldiers resonated strongly in the Vietnam War era. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue the One-and-Done series with a conversation about Johnny Got His Gun.Locked-In Horror: A Haunting Tale of War's CasualtiesWe dive deep into the film's harrowing portrayal of Joe Bonham, played by Timothy Bottoms, as he struggles with his horrific injuries and loss of autonomy. The movie's exploration of disability rights and the dehumanization of wounded veterans sparks a thoughtful discussion. We examine how Trumbo's adaptation differs from his novel, particularly in its use of flashbacks and dream sequences to break up the claustrophobic hospital scenes. While we appreciate the film's powerful anti-war message, we debate the effectiveness of some of its more surreal elements.Other points of discussion include:• Timothy Bottoms' compelling performance as Joe Bonham• The impact of Jason Robards as Joe's father• Donald Sutherland's portrayal of Christ in dream sequences• The film's bleak ending and its emotional impact• Comparisons to other "locked-in" films like The Diving Bell and the Butterfly• Trumbo's transition from novelist to filmmakerA Thought-Provoking Journey Through War's AftermathJohnny Got His Gun remains a powerful and disturbing examination of war's human cost. While we found some aspects of the film more effective than others, we agree that it's an important work that continues to resonate decades after its release. Its unflinching look at the physical and psychological toll of combat makes it a challenging but worthwhile viewing experience. We have a great time talking about it, so check it out then tune in.

Raconteurs et raconteuses, bienvenue dans La Machine à écrire, le podcast de celles et ceux qui créent des histoires. Dans cet épisode, nous réunissons deux invités qui nous livrent avec sensibilité des récits introspectifs, personnels et intimes… pour rendre plus légère la vie des autres. Notre premier invité est une figure bien connue de la scène, du cinéma et de la télévision. Vous l'avez découvert dans la troupe des Robins des Bois sur Comédie et Canal+ dans les années 90s. C'est aussi le chef des cheveux propres dans RRRRrrr!!!  qu'il co-écrit avec ses camarades, avant de se lancer dans la réalisation et l'écriture de films plus personnels tels que Casablanca Driver, Papa, Low Cost, Pas très normales activités ou Les Ex. En 2021, il coécrit avec la coach Charlotte Wils un livre pédagogique et autobiographique intitulé Fort comme un hypersensible, thème qu'il développe par la suite dans un seul en scène. Dans son premier roman L'Expérience, il raconte l'histoire de Léo, un homme à cran au bord de l'implosion, qui s'autorise une séance de cinéma pour respirer un peu, et qui va vivre une expérience qui va changer sa vie. Nous avons le plaisir de recevoir Maurice Barthélémy. Notre deuxième invitée est une scénariste, réalisatrice, comédienne et chanteuse qui a fait ses débuts sur YouTube en 2015. Cinq ans plus tard, elle diffuse sur sa chaîne une mini-série autoproduite How to Be Your Own Best Friend et Le Tarot un court-métrage qui remporte le Prix de la Fiction au Frames Festival d'Avignon. Après un premier rôle au cinéma dans Habib, la grande aventure où elle donne la réplique à Bastien Ughetto et Catherine Deneuve, elle obtient un financement du CNC pour produire une deuxième saison de sa série. Librement inspirée de ses propres expériences, elle y raconte l'histoire d'une jeune autrice qui doit écrire une série et la pitcher à des producteurs. Mais rien n'est plus difficile quand son appartement vient de brûler et que tout dans sa vie semble vouloir l'empêcher d'avancer. Nous sommes heureux d'accueillir Inès Banzet-Benhagouga. Voici deux artistes qui se racontent, exposent leurs doutes, leur hypersensibilité, et leurs questionnements pour mieux se comprendre et partager leur expérience en tentant d'alléger un peu le quotidien de leurs spectateurs et lecteurs. Alors... Est-ce que nos failles sont de bons sujets ? L'hypersensibilité aide-t-elle à écrire ? Peut-on écrire un récit singulier en restant universel ? Le huis-clos permet-il de mieux parler d'introspection ? Est-ce qu'on finit toujours par se raconter à travers la fiction ? Faut-il interdire les sachets de popcorn au cinéma ? C'est à toutes ces questions et à bien d'autres que nous répondons dans cet épisode. Bonne écoute !

We are taking out an entire month to look briefly at the prolific body of work of Arch Oboler. The 1930s saw Oboler in a position of prominence in radio with his own series "Arch Oboler's Plays." Today we hear the most dramatic of these, with an riveting production of Dalton Trumbo's "Johnny Got His Gun," starring James Cagney as the blind and deaf soldier with no arms, and no legs.  Visit our website: https://goodolddaysofradio.com/ Subscribe to our Facebook Group for news, discussions, and the latest podcast: https://www.facebook.com/groups/881779245938297 If you don't do Facebook, we're also on Gab: https://gab.com/OldRadio  Our theme music is "Why Am I So Romantic?" from Animal Crackers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KHJKAKS/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_MK8MVCY4DVBAM8ZK39WD

Für Episode 133 hat Plor Johannes wieder einen echten Feel Good Movie mitgebracht: Im Zentrum von Johnny Got His Gun aus dem Jahr 1971 steht ein Soldat, der durch eine massive Kriegsverletzung zum Gefangenen seines eigenen Körpers wird. Seiner Arme, Beine und Sinne beraubt, unfähig mit der Außenwelt zu kommunizieren befindet er sich in einem permanenten Zustand zwischen Leere, Erinnerung und Alptraum. Mindestens genau so faszinierend wie die Handlung von Johnny Got His Gun ist das Schicksal seines Schöpfers, Dalton Trumbo, der zu den prominentesten Hollywood-Opfern des McCarthyism zählt und als Mitglied der Hollywood Ten sogar im Gefängnis saß. Wir reden also nicht nur über den Pazifismus in "Johnny zieht in den Krieg" sondern auch das Canceling im traditionellen, konservativen Hollywood, über deprimierende Filme und den deprimierenden Umgang der USA mit ihren kontroverseren Künstler*Innen.

“Johnny Got His Gun” is an anti-war novel written in 1938 by American novelist Dalton Trumbo and published in September 1939. There have been radio, stage and screen adaptations of the novel, including Trumbo's own 1971 film, and Metallica recorded a song – titled One – based on the book. In March of 1940, the book was serialized in the Daily Worker, which was published by the Communist Party USA - to which Trumbo belonged. For people on the political left, including the American Communist Party, the book became a rallying point in their opposition to involvement in World War II. But when Hitler invaded the USSR in 1941, Trumbo and his publishers decided to suspend reprinting the book until the end of the war – so long as the US stayed allied with the Soviet Union.

Arch Oboler's Plays, originally broadcast March 9, 1940, 83 years ago, Johnny Got His Gun starring James Cagney. A dramatization of the superb, shocking, Dalton Trumbo best-seller about the legless, armless, blind, deaf and dumb war veteran. An eloquent anti-war statement, Cagney was never better on the air.

Chris Hedges, who appeared on this program a few months back after the publication of his book Our Class, returns to discuss his powerful new book The Greatest Evil is War, which shows the true face of war and exposes the propagandistic narratives that help to sustain and escalate wars. Hedges, a veteran war correspondent, shows us the people who actually do the fighting and the dying, from those maimed and traumatized for life to those who must collect the corpses from the battlefield. He shows how every war is presented by each side as a battle of the forces of light against the forces of darkness, and why the real story is almost always much more complicated. He shows how the darkest facts of war are kept from public view, and instead the population is presented with an image of war as something heroic and exciting. He shows how war memorials and the media get us to "admire the despicable beauty of weapons systems without seeing what they do to human bodies," and explains how those who benefit from continued conflict contribute to sustaining it. Hedges warns that history shows us that those who think they can keep wars from spiraling out of control are often deluding themselves, and policy-makers who think themselves rational have often led their countries into catastrophic and suicidally destructive conflicts. Hedges' TomDispatch piece about writing on war is here. Tomas Young's letter can be read here. Hedges refers to Johnny Got His Gun and the preface to Edward Said's Orientalism. Nathan's review of The Greatest Evil is War is here. The news story about the Congressional Progressive Caucus' letter is here. Apologies for the delayed release of this episode. CA staff are busy trying to finish up the new print issue, which will be out within days! Also Nathan still isn't quite over COVID.

We're not quite back just yet, but we're also not still on the road. Vania and Eric chit some chat and chat some shit on what they've been up to. Vania has been taking the summer off, while Eric's finished up the photography trip. On the trip, she shot 260ish sheets and 70ish rolls of 120 across 7000ish miles. There's not a lot of specifics. Eric somehow managed to keep a travel journal, and reads a couple of entries from it about loss and how to cope with it on the road. We also recommend that you check out Kaz Rowe's video on the Cottingley Fairies Hoax. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtSVxd_pXns&t   Also, how about Johnny Got His Gun? https://archive.org/details/johnny-got-his-gun   And hell, why not Day of the Dead while we're at it... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dIQJ39HKU0   We'll be back next week for a whole new Dev Party!

Arch Oboler's Plays, originally broadcast g 82 years ago, Johnny Got His Gun starring James Cagney. A dramatization of the superb, shocking, Dalton Trumbo best-seller about the legless, armless, blind, deaf, and dumb war veteran. An eloquent anti-war statement, Cagney was never better on the air.

Metallica got its start back in 1981, but their 1988 album ...And Justice for All would be the one to bring them mainstream success.  Today Metallica has an international celebrity status as a founding band of thrash metal, but at the time they were much less well known and considered inaccessible to mainstream listeners.  The band also saw a lineup change for this album, as their previous bassist Cliff Burton had been killed in a bus accident while on tour in Sweden.  Newcomer Jason Newsted would be the bassist to join Lars Ulrich on drums, Kirk Hammett on lead guitar, and front man and guitarist James Hettfield....And Justice for All was quite complex for a metal album, and a comparison to prog rock would not be out of line.  The lyrics are also deeper than the typical metal faire, focusing on the theme of injustice through corruption, censorship, and of course, war.  Musicianship had to be tight, as much of the work was fast, meriting the title "thrash metal."  While overall critical reception was quite good, the bass for the entire album seemed downplayed.  This is unfortunate, as the Newsted's bass work is very good.  However, the drums are quite powerful.The album was an unqualified commercial success, hitting number 2 on the Billboard 200, and charting for 83 weeks.  Metallica received a Grammy nomination for the album in 1989, controversially losing out to Jethro Tull.  Some of this commercial success is undoubtedly from a feel of competition the band experienced with the success of Guns 'N' Roses' "Appetite for Descruction."  Lars Ulrich did not want Guns 'N' Roses to be perceived as "harder" than Metallica.Metallica would go on to be one of the best recognized performers for decades to come, and are still touring to sold-out audiences today.Friend of the show John Lynch joins us to bring this album. ...And Justice for AllThis title track takes its title from the last four words from The Pledge of Allegiance.  The song chronicles justice miscarried, with lyrics like "justice is lost, justice is raped, justice is gone.  Pulling your streams, justice is done."  Much of the album is political, but the lyrics center around freedom of speech, freedom from war, and, well, justice for all.BlackenedA distinctive intro builds into this highly complex lead track from the album.  It is a protest against environmental catastrophe and/or war.  Musically it is straight out of prog rock, with multiple time changes and tempo alterations. OneThis well known song and video tells the tragedy of a man horribly wounded in war who is left with no connection to the outside world as he exists in pain and is kept alive by machines in a hospital ward.  The video uses cuts from a 1971 film entitled "Johnny Got His Gun."  The band bought the rights to the film rather than continually paying royalty fees. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Ornithology by Charlie Parker (from the motion picture Bird)This biographical film was about Charlie "The Bird" Parker, directed by Clint Eastwood.  STAFF PICKS:Smooth Up in Ya' by Bullet BoysWayne kicks off the staff picks with a hair metal glam metal band musically looking for a no-attachments one night stand.  This song would not make the top 40, but would be seen on MTV's "Head Banger's Ball." Love Bites by Def LeppardRob's staff pick is off the hugely successful album "Hysteria."  This was Def Leppard's only number 1 single in America up until this time.  Their producer, Robert John "Mutt" Lange, write this tune intending it as a country song.  However, Def Leppard decided to record it as a rock song.  Lange sings backing vocals on this track as well.Time and Tide by Basia Bruce's staff pick is a slower adult contemporary piece from Polish singer Barbara Stanislawa Trzetrzelewska, better known as Basia.  The song is about her unfulfilled love for her songwriting collaborator Danny White during a time when they both were in relationships with others.Simply Irresistible by Robert PalmerJohn closes out the staff picks with a song heavily played in 1988.  The video was well known - though simple - for its use of guitar-playing and dancing girls with short skirts and tightly pulled back hair.  It was...well...simply irresistible!  "She's so fine, there's not telling where the money went." INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Good Lovin' by Bobby McFerrinActually an anti-instrumental cover of The Rascals piece finishes off the episode, as McFerrin performs all vocals an instruments either with voice or slaps on his body.

"In this tragic, dark, anti-war satire, a patriotic young American in WW1 is rendered blind, deaf, limbless, and mute by a horrific artillery shell attack.

America was riven in the late 1940s and early 1950s when the House Un-American Affairs Committee turned its gimlet eye on Hollywood and 10 writers and producers with suspiciously leftist sympathies. The Hollywood Ten were among the most successful and well-known writers of their time, including Oscar-winners Michael Wilson and Dalton Trumbo. After being forced out of their careers and country, they encamped for the more tolerant climates of Mexico and Europe, writing under assumed names for much lower wages and no credit. In the mid-1950s, they began to trickle back into America, where Trumbo and Wilson set up camp in Ojai, led by Wilson's wife, Zelma, the noted architect. Zelma and Michael formed a salon where other blacklisted writers and actors gathered to commiserate, party and make history. We take up this story with Mark Lewis, former chair of the Ojai Valley Museum and a long-form narrative feature journalist who is also an associate editor of the Ojai Quarterly. After Kirk Douglas and others helped bust the blacklist, these talented writers got back to work on such classics as "Planet of the Apes" and "Johnny Got His Gun." Among other topics we talked about Stalin, Ojai architecture, Ronald Reagan and Nordhoff homecoming queens. We did not talk about Zen archery, Great Lakes boat craft or the Peloponnesian War.

2020 is the 100-year anniversary of 'The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari', the German Expressionism film that created the visual and thematic template for the modern horror movie. And I think it is very fitting that three films up for Best Picture at the Academy Awards this year were horror films in disguise. Join me as I show how three very different films carry the Caligari DNA and continue to expand the language of the modern horror film. I hope you enjoy the show! Movies Discussed: The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) The Shape of Water (2017) Get Out (2017) Combat Shock (1984) Joker (2019) The Dark Knight (2008) The Man Who Laughs (1928) Taxi Driver (1976) The King of Comedy (1982) Easy Rider (1969) 1917 (2019) Black Hawk Down (2001) Come and See (1985) All Quiet on the Western Front (1930) Johnny Got His Gun (1971) Parasite (2019) The Funeral (1984) Audition (1999) Sleep Tight (2011) US (2019) My book, Screaming for Pleasure: How Horror Makes You Happy and Healthy on sale NOW! https://hellbentforhorror.com/book/ Want to read a chapter for free?

“El vientre de los espejos” es el título de un poemario escrito por Fernando Alcaine, cuyos poemas nunca fueron publicados en papel pero que vamos a ir dando a conocer, uno a uno, en nuestro programa. (3) [RECORTE DE PRENSA Morir, dormir, no despertar más nunca, poder decir todo acabó; en un sueño sepultar para siempre los dolores del corazón, los mil y mil quebrantos que heredó nuestra carne, ¡quién no ansiara concluir así! Morir… quedar dormidos… Dormir… tal vez soñar! Hamlet, III, 1] El sueño de Joe es una versión para radioteatro del guion cinematográfico escrito por Dalton Trumbo y Luis Buñuel, a comienzos de los años 60, a partir de la novela del primero titulada Johnny Got His Gun (1939), que en España se traduce como Johnny cogió su fusil. Sabido es que la película en que debía convertirse el mencionado guion, dirigida por Buñuel, no pudo realizarse y que fue el propio Trumbo quien en solitario la reescribió y dirigió, presentándola en el festival de Cannes de 1971 donde obtuvo el Gran Premio del Jurado. Por otro lado, el Instituto de Estudios Turolenses logró editar en 1993 el texto escrito por los dos creadores en colaboración, rescatándolo así del olvido. El sueño de Joe recoge los hilos esenciales de la historia del soldado a quien un obús mutila casi todo su cuerpo pero que, a pesar de ello y como consecuencia de los avances en el campo de la medicina, sigue vivo, atrapado en el laberinto de su propia conciencia. Más allá del alegato antibelicista o de la proclama a favor de una muerte con dignidad, la pieza presenta de una manera vívida y lancinante ese horror, tan característico del siglo pasado, de la alienación del individuo. Que, por lo demás, es reflejo de una de las contradicciones de nuestro sistema: el Poder –político, económico, religioso…- que proclama y sanciona la existencia del Individuo, cuando actúa, lo niega metódicamente, lo vacía de dignidad, lo desposee. De ahí la fragilidad de Joe, su vulnerabilidad: es –eso le enseña la educación recibida- pero también no es –eso le enseña la experiencia. Y de ahí, también, por descontado, la inconsistencia de la Vida, que difumina las fronteras entre Realidad y Sueño. El sueño de Joe, en fin, condensa ejemplarmente esa pesadilla, nuestra pesadilla: la de la desposesión. Voces: Manuel y Fernando Alcaine Música: Jesús Aparicio – (BSO El Fusil de Johnny)

Josh and Zak discuss a Dalton Trumbo Classic! War has plunged Army soldier Joe Bonham (Timothy Bottoms) into an unending nightmare. Hit by an artillery shell in World War I, Joe has suffered injuries that have all but erased his humanity: he's lost his sight, speech, hearing and sense of smell. But he still has the ability to think and remember, which, in the end, may be more a curse than a blessing. Trapped in his body, Joe realizes there's only one way out of his misery: death. Can he get a sympathetic nurse to help him? - One time Donation (Paypal) (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=UCDJJT4BBGNDW&source=url) - Be a part of the show (Patreon) (https://www.patreon.com/duckintheusher) Support this podcast

Du vågner i en seng og kan ikke høre, ikke se, ikke lugte, ikke smage, ikke tale, og du mangler dine arme og dine ben. Det er grufuldt... og grueligt godt. Dalton Trumbos "Johnny got his gun". Musik: Ketsa "Night Flying"

In May and June, over a hundred groups across the country came together for town hall meetings to discuss climate change and what a Green New Deal for Canada could look like. And the energy continues – there are still a few town halls happening in the month of July. This week, a report was posted online summarizing what some of those findings were, and what communities were saying about how the Green New Deal could be applied in their cities, towns, villages and townships. The Green New Deal town halls were organized by a coalition which included the Council of Canadians, Leadnow, GreenPeace Canada, The Leap and 350.org. According to the report released this week over 7,000 people took part in 150 town halls. On today's show: 1) rabble radio executive producer Victoria Fenner went to one of these town halls in Barrie, Ontario, just north of Toronto. What she discovered was a discussion that was wide ranging, going way beyond what is usually considered to be environmental issues. In a series of questions prepared by the national organizers, participants were invited to look at issues relating to environment and sustainability in the broadest terms possible. The solutions people came up with had to do with environment, economy, transportation, health and every facet of life which is or will be affected by climate change. 2) She also talked to Tim Ellis, one of the national organizers of the Green New Deal town hall project to find out what the next steps are.  He works with Leadnow. 3) Also on today's show – Johnny Got His Gun is a musical response to school shootings in the United States, performed and composed by Emilie Feldberg, also known as E.L.F.  She contacted rabble radio with her song, which is on today's show, along with an interview with E.L.F. about why she wrote the song.  Her songs are strongly inspired by her political views, the impact of her environment on her, and the regular life of a seventeen-year-old today. She has studied music for most of her life, receiving training in classical studies as well as performing indie music. Emilie has taught both piano and voice and plays multiple musical instruments. She completed the royal conservatory of music grades in voice and uses her knowledge of vocal technique and classical styles to inspire her songs. She first became inspired by activism through feminism at a young age and has attended protests throughout her city. Since then, her music reflects what she sees in the world around her.

Big Cow, it's still there, and I'm still talking. This week I'm joined in my talking by Lee Abecasis, who has actually never seen the Big Cow before. Wow! We go pretty deep on the film "Johnny Got His Gun" which came out in 1971, but we call is "Johnny Get Your Gun", and claim it came out in the '40s. Talking points include: Too Big!; a very big net; not actually a talking point, but I think at one point you can hear gulls in the background; Knockermen, a term from the Discworld books which I wrongly apply; Italian - the language of truth; Thinkin' 'bout my size; people who mate with birds; robes of woven grass; and Speed 2 Cruise Control.

Once nearly impossible to find and now... still pretty tough to obtain via legitimate means, Dalton Trumbo's JOHNNY GOT HIS GUN—the 1971 film he wrote and directed based on his own 1939 novel—is both legendary and forgotten at the same time. It tells the disturbing tale of a young soldier who loses his limbs and nearly all of his senses, but whose mind remains intact as he's trapped inside his own body in a military hospital. Adapted into Metallica's music video "One" and rubbing shoulders with the great anti-war and surrealist films, Johnny Got His Gun is not easy to watch. Also discussed: the film's most effective techniques; Trumbo's career and politics; other adaptations on stage and film; and its maybe-possible influence on Better Call Saul. Plus: does Metallica really own the film outright?

The anti-war novel Johnny Got His Gun and the song it inspired, One by Metallica, tell the story of Joe Bonham, a soldier who has been grievously injured on the battlefield in World War I. Upon waking in the hospital, the soldier finds that he cannot walk or speak, see or hear. Modern science has saved his body—or at least part of it—and he is left questioning what kind of life this actually is. There is the haunting lyric in Metallica’s epic song: “Landmine has taken my sight Taken my speech Taken my hearing Taken my arms Taken my legs Taken my soul Left me with life in hell” Certainly one would not want to be flip about the unreal torture that would have been Joe’s position—a position that far too many soldiers have found themselves in. However, the Stoics would have pushed back on the second to last line—taken my soul. Because to the Stoics, nothing, not even the explosion of a landmine, can touch what is inside us. And in fact, the plot of the novel and the song are evidence of this. Despite the terror and pain of his ghastly position—trapped in his own body, unable to move, alive only in the most technical sense of the word—Johnny shows a remarkable amount of control over his own life. Remembering that he knows Morse Code, he begins to communicate with his doctors by tapping his head. First, telling them SOS, SOS, SOS until eventually they understand. Then, finally, he asks the military to exhibit him across the country, in a glass box, as evidence of the horrors of war. This is not a man whose soul has been taken. This is a man who has been deprived of everything but his soul and it is that soul that he is leaning on in this moment of unimaginable suffering and difficulty. Our soul is the only untouchable thing within us. No arms, no legs, no eyes, no face, and Jonny retains the ability to determine his own fate, to decide the terms he is going to live or not to live on. And we do possess this power and fortitude, which we can apply in any and all situations we face today...ones that if Fortune holds will be far less ethically fraught and painful than those that real soldiers face in the intensive care units every day. Oh and, now and ever, it’s important to remember: Memento Mori.

EL FUSIL DE JOHNNY (Morir, dormir, no despertar más nunca, poder decir todo acabó; en un sueño sepultar para siempre los dolores del corazón, los mil y mil quebrantos que heredó nuestra carne, ¡quién no ansiara concluir así! Morir... quedar dormidos... Dormir... tal vez soñar!—) Hamlet, III, 1. El fusil de Johnny es una versión para radioteatro del guion cinematográfico escrito por Dalton Trumbo y Luis Buñuel, a comienzos de los años 60, a partir de la novela del primero titulada Johnny Got His Gun (1939), que en España se traduce como Johnny cogió su fusil. Sabido es que la película en que debía convertirse el mencionado guion, dirigida por Buñuel, no pudo realizarse y que fue el propio Trumbo quien en solitario la reescribió y dirigió, presentándola en el festival de Cannes de 1971 donde obtuvo el Gran Premio del Jurado. Por otro lado, el Instituto de Estudios Turolenses logró editar en 1993 el texto escrito por los dos creadores en colaboración, rescatándolo así del olvido. El fusil de Johnny recoge los hilos esenciales de la historia del soldado a quien un obús mutila casi todo su cuerpo pero que, a pesar de ello y como consecuencia de los avances en el campo de la medicina, sigue vivo, atrapado en el laberinto de su propia conciencia. Ya Poe, en “El entierro prematuro”, había dado forma literaria a la pesadilla del muerto para los demás y, sin embargo, vivo para sí. Yendo mucho más allá, Trumbo y Buñuel aciertan a incardinarla en el terrible siglo XX que les tocó vivir y extraer de ella todas sus implicaciones políticas, sociales y culturales. Más allá del alegato antibelicista o de la proclama a favor de una muerte con dignidad, la pieza presenta de una manera vívida y lancinante aquel horror, tan característico del siglo pasado: el de la alienación del individuo. Que, por lo demás, es reflejo de una de las contradicciones de nuestro sistema: el Poder –político, económico, religioso…- que proclama y sanciona la existencia del Individuo, cuando actúa, lo niega metódicamente, lo vacía de dignidad, lo desposee. De ahí la fragilidad de Johnny, su vulnerabilidad: es –eso le enseña la educación recibida- pero también no es –eso le enseña la experiencia. Y de ahí, también, por descontado, la inconsistencia de la Vida, que difumina las fronteras entre Realidad y Sueño. El fusil de Johnny, en fin, condensa esa pesadilla, nuestra pesadilla: la de la desposesión.
