Exciting year, excruciating movie. Ernest (On Golden Scum) Thompson, directing for the first time in addition to writing, makes a characteristically shallow belly-flop onto deep thematic waters: Vietnam, the generation gap, long hair, LSD — that whole package. The finale — a funeral party turned protest march — is guaranteed to move anyone who could be knocked over with a feather. Kiefer Sutherland, Robert Downey, Jr., Winona Ryder, Bruce Dern, Mariette Hartley, Joanna Cassidy. (1988) — Duncan Shepherd
