"Back there I could fly a gunship, I could drive a tank, I was in charge of million dollar equipment, back here I can't even hold a job PARKING CARS!"
Always hits hard.
Sadly it happens till now
I could barely stand regular everyday people. Even today around my military co-workers the young ones get annoyed that we have a click, I tell them join something so maybe you will understand…
They so soft… close minded, shitty work ethic, judgmental. , I can go on and on… it’s frustrating
i always thought he said he couldn't hold a gun
This is so American
When he slumps down, starts crying, and says "where is everybody?"
Damn. That hits hard.

“trying to be nice and help him out”
Insults his “unkempt” hair, insults him further, brandishes a gun at him after no more than ten seconds of refusing to put his hands on the police car, takes his knife to use as “evidence”, takes him to the police station and calls him a “smartass drifter”, then hands him over to other officers who repeatedly physically abuse him, resolve to take him to court for resisting arrest, trigger his PTSD no less than twice, and that’s only before Rambo escapes.
@@deanfarr3249 trying to help him out? By what? Insulting him, unlawfully arresting him, trying to shown off how small his dick is by hunting him when he didn't even wanna get involved in a fight? That cop deserved what Rambo did to him.
@@deanfarr3249 LOL did you watch the same movie I did? Because all I saw was a small town sheriff acting like a pompous dickhead to a guy who just wanted a hot meal in town before moving on. No crime in that.
How did Stallone not get an Oscar nomination for this movie? The emotional power of his performance in this scene alone is heart-rending.
Because the rest of the movie is mostly an action extravaganza

I am Croatian, we had war back in 90s against Serbs. I have much older cousin who was in that war, every time I see him now he is like stone, people view him as strong man who never cries, he is always in his minds, one time when I was younger this movie was on TV, and this scene. He was siting and watching, out of the blu while rambo had this speech about his friend, I saw tears droping from eyes of cousin, he didnt say anything, just cried (first time I saw him crying). I felt sorry so much I asked him; "what is it..."? he said; this is not movie about american soldier, it's about all of us soldiers, nevermind Croatian, American, Serbian, or anyone...I've lost everything he said... his mind etc... (PTSD), he took my arm very strongly after this scene and said to me; "NEVER EVER HATE SOMEONE because he is serbian or anyone of different nationality, we were all fuc...ed both we and them, it's all bullshit, no one will ever understand except us who been there." I swear... I said; I promise I will not. And I never do. I was 15 when he said this to me, I am 36 now...And I can tell you with straight face: this is not a MOVIE SCENE, all this is authentic speech. Greets to everyone who understands me and especially my cousin who cried on this, greets to all honest people in USA, in Croatia in Serbia, and everywhere.......
Governments play with soldiers' lives, it's so sad. All that trauma for nothing. What even can soldiers do, they're just following orders!
Thank you for sharing your cousin's story, your comment moved me 🙏
@@devaiskander9983 hug
@@devaiskander9983 Just wanna add somethin, my cousin went to meeting in neighbour country to our country Croatia: Bosnia, where people with PTSP from war gathered and talk, Serbian, Croatian, Bosniak soldiers etc... now when they meet he told me, once they were enemies durin war, now they share both that PTSP nightmare, but feel good to talk about everyday things. Once enemies, now they're brothers from opposite sides, with one thing in common: HELL they all saw..., which they will never forget. Ofcourse Croatian govermont or Serbian or Bosnian govermont will never report this on news, because even today it's in their interest just hatred.
@@CroPETROforeverNBA It's actually so beautiful to hear that people who once fought each other - from a war that didn't even happen that long ago - now meet each other to share their traumatic experiences. This means that there is still hope for humanity, all in all, and it's not even that naive for me to say. I've met some people from both Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Kosovo (I'm from Italy) and once I went to a concert with two of them, who didn't know each other yet. We all met at the station, and at first I was worried that they would feel uncomfortable with each other. They both had left their countries because of the war and came to Italy in the 90s. I was so pleasantly surprised when they started behaving like buddies straight away, even sharing the curse words they had in common - that was so fun! Again, thank you for sharing your story 🙂
Though he doesn't directly mention PTSD, Rambo was way ahead of its time in exposing the psychological challenges our soldiers face. This scene is so powerful yet heartbreaking.
It sadly didn't have a name put to it (or maybe it did, but it wasn't spoken about), in the time these movies portray. It's sad.
Well, they are brave yet it doesn't mean that they don't experience struggle and distress
@@modafoka230 its was called shell shock, and showing it was a way to get other than honorable discharge, which is worst than dishonorable.
Ahead of its time? Soldiers have been showing signs of PTSD since WW1, and I suspect way before that. Back in the day, they called it "shell-shock". Patton, that piece of shit, ridiculed men who came back, terrified, shaking, hiding under hospital beds. People do not enjoy killing other people, and PTSD, whatever you wish to label it as, is a pure indicator of the trauma.
Just think of this, the next time you hear of a war being fought "in the name of freedom." When you send people to murder other people, for the "interests" of a nation, you have blow-back.
Shell-shock in ww1, then it became battle fatigue in ww2, then it became operational exhaustion in Korea, then it became PTSD in Vietnam.
Always broke me when he said “back here I can’t even hold a job parking cars”
Agreed...
Reminds me of Walter White quitting his car was job.
Remember that many people nowadays can't hold any jobs
can't even handle a valet jockey job, feel sad for Vietnam War veterans...
Deep, in the heart deep.
This scene is why I hate the other Rambo movies. He’s a tragic character that covers some really serious and sad concepts about veterans in a really powerful way. Then they do a 180 and make him into a stereotypical 80s Arnold type character that just kills everything in his sight.
Yeah they should've stopped after the second
"...You just don't turn it off..." wow, that statement can be applied to many things, mental illness, depression, PTSD, autism, trauma, and many others, you can"t "turn it off"...
Or the training...
True. It's always there, it's one reason I can't stand mirrors.
1:30 Rambo: "back there I can fly a gun ship, I can drive a tank! I was in charge of a million dollar equipment! back here, I cant even hold a job parking caaaaars......!"

That cut me deep. My buddy served 6 years in the Marine corps. Came back from Iraq. He was turned down at a gas station and car wash. 😑😑
It's,real bro..
Thanks for pointing out this dialogue
"i was operating million dollar equipment here i cant hold down a job parking cars" if you know someone with mental health problems from combat, you know how true this statement is.
He says 'parking cars'.
he said parking cars, not pumping gas
How could you mess up the line man?
@@jackychang9148 I dont speak yankee or cali or whatever
@@exandious867 It's called english dude.
"Where is everybody?" Such a great opening to a masterful written and performed monologue. This movie is such a masterpiece.
Anyone who says Stallone cannot act needs to watch this and the scene from Rocky Balboa outside the restaurant with his son. This scene really hit hard and still does all these years later.
He was great in Copland also... very underrated performance
@@redomega24I was gonna comment on this lol.
Not sure if this is the scene you're talking about, but the scene where Rocky says "Your prime? What about my prime! I never had a prime!" when the old man/mentor talks about his prime of his life.
Or Mickey's death scene
As a veteran, every time I watch this scene, I absolutely cry for Rambo. His pain is so raw and for Truatman to listen to him and not answer him, but silently acknowledge him...is completely powerful. Rambo, as tough as he is, is a man haunted by his past and just wants someone to hold on to. And Truatman understands his pain. I weep so much during this scene.
You can see the pain in Truatmans eyes like he had failed Rambo in some way by making him this indestructible warrior but none of the tools to cope with life back home.
It was sickening and pathetic how left-whiners jumped on this scene and commented that they never spat on veterans. They DID. Why doesn't Jane Fonda move to Vietnam since she loves them so much? She should have been stripped of her citizenship.
how i felt when a man i married strong and patriotic fall apart one day when his best friend ended his life in suicide after of years of dealing with the conflict they left behind
I am not veterean. In fact i am brazilian and every single time i see this scene this make me cry. I can imagine the horror and trauma from the men who fought this terrible war.
Basically, when it comes to war, there are no winners.
This movie has a lot of over the top moments, but this scene is so damn real. I had a mentor who was a Vietnam Vet. He always smiled. I always thought he was the nicest guy in thr world. Always so positive. I walked in on him once when he was having an episode. It was scary. I had never scene him like that before. He told me all the stuff he experienced back there. The friends he lost. The hate he got after he got back. He told me he smiles all the time to hide the pain. He died last year from Covid. He survived Vietnam just to die alone in a hospital room. I'll never forget him. He taught me so much. He taught me to live and to smile through the pain.
I am so sorry to hear that you had lost your mentor and that he had died the way he did. I hope that you feel better soon and things for you get better.
What branch was he in? Did he get drafted or did he volunteer?
He should have cried like Rambo
Sometimes you have to let it go
@@reycesarcarino4653 we see that Rambo never lets it go
What was his name, i wanna pray for his soul.
A shockingly accurate portrayal of PTSD.
Rambo's case was really bad and that was true for some but not all veterans who came back
@@CrossOfBayonne nobody really comes back from war whole. Just my two cents.
Agreed. They didn't call it that back then but a lot of those guys probably had it( and I imagine that that goes back all throughout the entire long history of warfare). Oliver Stone( a Vietnam War veteran) even said that everyone he served with probably all had it but again, they didn't call it that at the time.
@@CrossOfBayonne He was tortured in Nam. His friends were killed or brutally murdered. And his last friend died of cancer... All hope was gone him. He was a ticking bomb ready to explode.
3:53 Underrated detail I don't see enough recognition over. Trautman is clearly shocked over just how broken John is after Vietnam, and seeing him completely 180 from a rampaging gunman to a traumatised soldier seems to put the entire situation into perspective for him, perhaps even feeling guilt for not being there to help John through the grief and pain of coming back home. A reflection on the abysmal treatment of veterans after the Vietnam war...
Trautman may have emerged from Vietnam better off than Rambo as a commander, but he never seemed to realise UNTIL NOW just how badly the war affected his own soldiers, especially the most deadly among them. He trained John into a ruthless killing machine, but he never quashed just what made him still human. He takes guilt in not being there for his men, and all he can do is hold John as his mind collapses...
Fun fact: that was Trautman’s real reaction. He used to be a soldier during the Korean War
@@armorpro573he was in ww2. Served in the Battle of the Bulge.
I never noticed that before. You can see his mouth trembling and the tears in his eyes. I definitely think in that moment Trautman felt responsible for what happened in the film. He turned Rambo into a killer, sent him into a war that no one wanted just to do unspeakable things, become a POW, get tortured and violently lose his friends. At that moment Trautman realised that Rambo wasn't an elite soldier anymore, he was a deeply broken young man and he was the reason why. That kind of shit has to weigh heavily on one's mind.
As much as I like the sequels, I feel like they ruined the message of the first film. It just feels wrong for Trautman to recruit Rambo for another mission when he knows what he's been through, it feels cruel. He knows that Rambo will go back to help the other POW's, he knows he won't turn that mission down.
It's like a father seeing his son losing his mind, at first you think its just him flipping out..then you realize it's a very real mental breakdown and is very serious
In the movie the hunted
The hard part is turning it off
I love that, when he's recounting what happened to his friend, he's barely intelligible. He babbles. He squeaks. His pitch is all over the octave. There's nothing romanticized about his grief and trauma. It's hard to watch, but you have to because it's so amazingly *real*
its some of the best acting ever put to film, and basically got ignored by Hollywood.
I bet Rambo is high IQ too he's able to outsmart the law.
If his pitch would've went any higher than 1:37, that would've hit even harder
The way our Vietnam veterans were treated when they came home disgusts me
Is it any different now ?
@@DerDoenerInMir these days people are more aware of the mental struggles veterans face and our culture is more supportive towards veterans then they were back then. But even with that our veterans today are still being failed by us and it's embarrassing to see
Well i hope the veterans are finding reasonable people and finding peace
This movie implies that the peace movement treated veterans coming home unfairly. Which is completely false and has no evidence. The peace movement was actually the most sympathetic to the veterans and soldiers and protested the conflict itself and the American government. This scene touches on the jingoist politics that these movies portray. This is much more obvious in the sequels.
@@Elias-yb3xv I don't deny that, but he never specifies that the peace movement people mistreated him. Also there probably was a few peace movement people that mistreated the veterans but they would've been the exception
WHAT a scene! No one but veterans themselves can know how much of a living hell such PTSD is, but Stallone is incredibly believable as a man who's suffering greatly. Superb acting.
👍👍.
"No one but veterans can know hoe much of a living hell PTSD is"

@@bard6184 Shiii- when you're right you're right my bad
I’m a Marine, OEF Veteran. I just watched this movie for the first time and this scene broke me down. I still struggle to make sense of going from Active Duty to civilian life, I feel lost and confused, and I have struggled with that feeling of being a Marine Sergeant, having so much responsibility on my shoulders, then getting out and struggling to find meaningful work that pays well. I miss my friends, I miss feeling a sense of purpose, I miss feeling honorable. Sly Stallone struck a cord with me, such a powerful scene.
not a vet, and likely have lived a completely different from you, but I hope it gets easier friend.
Thank you for your service.
"I miss feeling honourable" myself bud. Very few will ever understand that pain. There is no honour in the world anymore.
There’s war and work. Thank you for the service. Recommend doing something with your hands
I’m so sorry brother. And I’m eternally grateful to you for your service, you and all of our servicemen/women. You deserve all of our respect. Thank you. I truly hope you find that purpose in your life again. Know that there are people out here in this great country who still respect and honor our veterans
We send these guys into the worst situations and throw them out like garbage when they come home. It’s not right, it’s just not right. Our veterans should be treated better than this.
Unfortunately we r truely just a society of maggots, no code of honor among the political back bitters, greedy dead beats & self centered delusional entitled lot.. ! 😔😖
Soldiers never got the respect they deserve. Both past and present.
Our world is an engine and it is fueled by human souls. Souls are fuel... and blood is oil.
@@MrMrx123456789 in ancient times a lot of them were threated with respect

“I don’t talk to anybody” that part hit me the most, I’m not a veteran or anything but I know what it’s like to be alone for years.
I've been alone for 3 years without family or even a cat lol I've started feeling like this recently . Hard to keep it together man
@@113charlie7 we can be alone....and still talk to people!

@@shaunbat5097 yeah it ain't the same man
Rambo Didn't Die He Always Survives
@@113charlie7 same bro, this is my 3rd year not being home. Living on my own. You feel like a ghost among everyone else. It's really tough for me express the things that boil inside of me sitting at my desk after a grooling work week. To come on to a empty apartment where I don't even hear the sound of my own voice. I don't even talk to anyone unless it's at work and even there it's like nobody sees me.
At the drop of a hat, Rambo goes from hard-core to mush. Shows you that he's a human being just like anybody else... and we all have a breaking point.
I think Trautman's reaction was more than just pity, empathy, or even understanding as a combat vet himself, but also self reflection on his own complicity in what has been done to this human soul. "God didn't make Rambo, I did."
When he said that line, it was filled with pride, but in that very moment he probably said it again in his head but with loathing and regret for what he did.
I think the cuts to his face and reactions kinda sneaky steals this scene
Those Police Officers Are Cruel.
He did the best thing you can do. He listened to his pain and embraced him. That's all rambo needed. Just someone who would listen.
Nice Analysis
Sylvester should’ve won an Oscar for that performance
100%
He also should've gotten an oscar for his role in rocky
@@robertisham5279 least he got nominated tho but yeah he should of won
@Jean Oh Now it is
The Oscars don't deserve him
he should get an Oscar retroactively. Rarely has someone conveyed such emotions. World class performance, world class film
My late grandpa was a Vietnam vet and this was one of his favorite movies. I will always remember him and how honored I was to call him my grandfather.
My Uncle's friend Bobby was there too and was wounded but came home
Respect to your grandfather. He was a warrior u have warrior blood in u be very proud.
Powerful scene.....what hits me hardest is when he is telling the story and he said nobody would help. Rambo the paragon of toughness and capability....was powerless and just wanted someone to help him help his friend...... :(
He wanted to be comforted......... That's when colonel realized, my men are human...
If this was Rambo in the nowadays world he wouldn't have suceeded breakout with jails being securily advanced
@@deanfarr3249 Who cares? I mean, that's not the message of this movie. This was then and the message is quite lasting.
Don't misunderstand me: you're right. And the world you paint is even worse: "If this was Rambo in the nowadays world, he would be silenced to the very end, so no one could understand the pain of his plight. So no one could know the truth. Because, after all, truth isn't something we're allowed. If you must suffer, suffer alone because NO ONE WILL EVER HELP YOU".
40 Year Masterpiece.
this scene became a movie about the events of a veteran elite soldier and his psychological drama and losing his friends. I even did it right now it made me cry even in the comment. War is always hell and unnecessary.
When I was a kid I didn’t really understand this scene or appreciate it. I’m now 38, some years out of the service and instead of adjusting back into civilian life, I find myself in absolute agony every single day, much like the Stallone acts out flawlessly in this clip. There’s no real friends, no camaraderie, no one has your back. Coming back, everyone seems to actively work against you, crush you, reject you, and you only find safety completely alone.
You're not alone bro. You're not.
@@Brnxlif1 Same here too.
well we do accept you and you did your best to fight through and sure i never was a soldier but i can always feel pain from my friends and you just need to find understanding people to support u so don't think you're ever alone with no friend because we will support you for your service
You wouldn't notice it as much had you never served but since you did, you know what it's like to be in a reliable community, as opposed to the others. The pain you feel, in this sense, is very much like what deep down they all feel and what makes them act like animals to protect themselves. That's how I deal with it (admittedly not a soldier). Bottom line is, you're not alone. You might see one of us every day, without knowing. I hope that helps.
@@Khorothis Point taken, bruh.
That's an incredibly strong performance from Stallone, one of the first realistic portrayals of PTSD and also of how the American public's treatment of returning Vietnam vets made a bad situation even worse for them.
"Where is everybody?" "'Cause back here there's nothing." "I can't get it out of my head." Damn.
Losing a friend in war is impossible to describe
My VFW member August Caccavone went through this in Germany.
Stallone is so good in this scene he is trying to stay tough but when he finally breaks you feel his pain and feeling alone losing his friends the line no one would help gets me every time
And only Trautman understand his pain, he embrace him like any father should. Great acting by Richard Crenna too.
Most of the stuff he says I can't understand
RIP Richard Crenna
@@yourstruly4817 That’s what makes it realistic.
@@AdamRee-lx8uh I meant it literally
This is especially poignant since the Colonel character likely belongs to the WW2 generation of soldiers. When his generation came home after defeating the germans and japanese, they were seen as brave heroes that had valiantly helped save he whole world from evil, almost like real life fairytale knights having been away fighting monsters. When Rambo's generation came om from Vietnam, they were seen as either monster themselves or as essentially a group of fools that had been tricked into fighting a useless war that amounted to nothing and was just a huge waste of human lives. When the colonel came home, people told him "What you just experienced was awful, but you did what had to be done and we well be grateful to you for all eternity". When Rambo came home he was told "What you just exprienced was awful, and what you did was awful, and there was never any point that any of it should happen in the first place. You killed, saw people get killed, and was at risk of being killed yourself for NO REASON". That has got to hurt, in part because I'm sure a lot of young men like Rambo assumed that they were going to be seen as heroes just like their fathers were.
Korean War
amricans didnt defeat the germans. ! they did nothing!! It was URSS who did it !
There is a group of women who make "valor quilts" for the Vietnam vets. They get their name called for role call. Presented with a handmade quilt and a long over due hug and thank you. Please contact your vfw to get the information out. I live in Appalachia. My town is small but its almost a Vietnam vet living door to door. I could tell it meant alot to those airmen, sailors, and soldiers that endured combat. My father was a champion hurdler who took a bullet in Nam...............i never knew that until i read the newspaper clipping about his return home wounded in action, awarded medals in combat in an old family veteran scrapbook. My oldman was 6'2 235lbs of a solid steel mountain dairy farmer that strolled tall and proud. I saw him catch a punch and told the guy "you dont want to do this" that man said "your right Bob i dont want to do this" then we all stood there and watched a big old fisticuffs at an Appalachian family wedding. Everyone in town would say he was the fastest man alive. I neer seen him run before i finally thought and thats when i seen it. That slight grimace when his leg lands a step.........but he sure talked about them big track meets he missed so much i seen em all i my imagination and that elephant he seen one time in Asia i heard that story umpteen million times. That must have been a pretty big deal for a hayseed back in the 60s.
Vietnam Was no more evil than WW2 was
In 50 years' time, the concept of free will, will have changed significantly, people will look back on previous generations of people and grasp the horror of what that belief has caused, whilst understanding completely why it had to be that way. The praise WW2 vets got will be seen as absurd as the hatred Nam vets got. The irony is, imagine hating those soldiers so much without having the capacity to empathize with the horror at all, dumb 18 year olds signing up for uncle Sam and seeing their friends die and then getting spit on by morally righteous imbeciles... And yet neither had a shred of choice in their behaviour, or what led up to those events.
A reason precedes all our behaviour, every thought, every action is a response to something else. Show me a person generating action potentials and novel behaviours with no prior priming or exposure to a stimulus from nothing. Brain cells don't generate something from nothing and that is why free will is so god damn stupid as an idea. All it does is make it easy to hate others who have brain injuries, traumatic pasts etc.. And hating them is just as absurd as giving praise to the smartest child in the class room or the prettiest because neither had any control over it.
People talk shit about the "cheesiness" of action movies from The 80s but this scene is one of the most heart wrenching scenes I've ever seen.
I think it genuinely was the first time when the actual PTSD from NAM was shown in the movie and Stallone nailed this scene like hell. Still wonder how he wasn't nominated for this part at least for the Golden Globe.
My father was drafted to Vietnam. Came back a shell of a person and for what? To be called a baby killer. Be against the war, but support the troops. Especially, when you force them to go over there and fight for their lives. My father, Andy Sumakis, may have died August 15th, 1992, but he was gone long before that.
Its just sad that newer war veterans like myself couldnt give your father his flowers while he was still alive. RIP Sumakis
I don't like the US military, I don't like the wars, but I try not to judge veterans. I don't know why they joined, I don't know what they had to go through.
"It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate one."
I'm sorry for your father. I know that's not enough, but I'm sorry.
@@DinsRune Well that’s very kind of you. But to be fair, he didn’t join, he was drafted.
@@DinsRune
I don't know why you wouldnt like the US military. Sure there are some internal politics, but those things are the result of human nature.
Don't like the wars? Wars have kept the United States a super power and made it the way it is now. If we'd still be isolated like the old days we'd be nothing. If some foreigners have to be gone for the US to keep its power among the world? So be it. I like the American way of life thanks. It does need a major overhaul from within though, and needing to do that is clean out those in power.
People don't understand that war is apart of life as much as peace is. We will always have wars and soldiers/warriors. War is a part of life. Violence is apart of human nature. Whether for self defense or in assault. We are very good at killing.
I feel for you, Prudie. It was a thankless task. Seems like your dad left behind one set of enemies just to face another group at home. Reminds me of my father when he was deployed to Vietnam for a while. Even as a young child, I knew somehow that he came back... Different. He never opened up about it. Not even once. Whatever thoughts and secrets he had about his experience he took with him to his grave. RIP to our fathers and those that never made it home. May their souls find peace.
3:52 You can see Trautman holding back tears of his own.
Obrigado
this scene became a movie about the events of a veteran elite soldier and his psychological drama and losing his friends. I even did it right now it made me cry even in the comment. War is always hell and unnecessary.
Troutman was like a Father to Rambo
Yeah, especially with the way his lip trembles, it's devastating to him to hear what happened to Danforth and see what's become of John after the war has ended.
Those were legitimate as well! Trautman's actor was a genuine Green Beret and something of a hardass, he's also worked with other vets...the fact that someone so otherwise STONEFACED was close to tears meant the acting was that good that the scene hit so fucking close to home.
4:14 this is what crippling PTSD and depression look like.
I always wondered if the Sheriff heard all of this while lying there, and then felt so bad for how he treated Rambo...
Yeah wondered that too.
@@Realrealreal272 Yeah, perhaps that shootout wounding him served him right for mistreating Rambo like that. If only he'd let him into the town, respected him as a Green Beret, not let his personal emotions get in the way, and gave him some hospitality, and If he had done something wrong, he could arrest him, but otherwise, none of that with Trautman (no offense) involved and the whole manhunt for Rambo would never have happened in the first place.
The sherrif was also a veteran, he knew what Rambo went through. He just hated him because Rambo's conflict overshadowed the sacrifices that him and the rest did during the Korean War.
i hope so cause everyone deserves a chance to give anyone the choice to be better
@@alternateperez4086 That’s just pathetic, you’d think as a fellow veteran he would have an absolute respect for him but no. If he’d just let him alone and had him just get something to eat, Rambo would have left town in peace without all this chaos and I’m sure the mayor of the town or governor of the state probably fired him for not handling the situation professionally especially how crazy the other officers were like that dude that threatened the chopper pilot.
Crenna's lip shake at 3:51 is genuine, he's clearly in awe.
I never noticed that, thank you. I was always so focused on Rambo. It makes that scene so much more powerful.
Trautman is about to lose it as well but he knows he can’t because he has to maintain a professional distance between himself and Rambo, great acting by Crenna.
@@spaceace4387 It's the best part, to me. Trautman was there, too, but right now John needs him to be strong.
God the actual horror both generations have seen... It's almost too much to bare just seeing them both.
He was a brute pumping out all kinds of action roles. But he wasnt just a jock head. This scene is such a great performance.
As a kid this movie was just a cool ass movie about a guy shooting up a city. Then when I got older, I finally understood the full grasps of wtf was going on. The movie changed from being a cool action flick, to being one of the most devastating showcasess of PTSD and how society fails to help veterans who has been in kill mode for years.
This scene breaks me everytime. Imo the best acting Sylvester Stallone ever did.
PTSD was actually around before Vietnam during WW1 and WW2 but at the time it was not recognized as like today. Even Korean War vets struggled with it
@@CrossOfBayonneanything to do with mass killing can and will cause severe ptsd. war is hell.

@@CrossOfBayonneyep. Thats how shell-shocked was coined…

But Crenna's face is just a movie itself. The range of emotions without saying a fucking word.
I rarely if ever cry, this scene makes my eyes watery.
And for me since I was a kid.....my favourite film....then as it goes....it's Rocky 1+2........
This is the only film I actually cry
@@shaunbat5097 All masterpieces!
When i was 9, Rambo 3 was my favorite among others.
12 years later i found out i was wrong.
First Blood is a masterpiece.
Totally correct...
yes
Rambo 2-5 are fun, but this is a pure mastersiece
I love the whole series but you are right. First blood hits different. But it's so sad
If you were a kid all you like is the very cool action scene.
Here in first blood, its not the action scenes, but the horror a man is experiencing war once again in his mind.
always start crying seeing this...
Trautman acknowledging the absolute pain Rambo is in is so powerful.
This is the real shell shock in one monologue. Masterpiece cinema.
When my friends say "Sly cant act" i show them this scene, majority of them change their minds, the other ones well i guess being ignorant is a bless.
As much as i love Rocky, i like Rambo more because he´s so emotionaly complex.
Anyone who says this man cant act is idiotic. If he couldnt act, then why is he in so many movies?
He can act, there is no question about that. The problem is when he allows his abysmal Directing and Writing skills to get in the way and he edits the scripts. The only movie he wrote that was good was the first Rocky. Because of that, Stallone keeps trying to use that power as leverage to change the script with crappy results. Even First Blood, which was amazing was still watered down due to Stallone removing Rambo actually killing anybody and Trautman killing Rambo at the end. It worked somewhat fine in this one (Although fans of the book still hate Stallone for that) but when he edited James Cameron's First Blood: Part 2, then it just came across as silly and devoid of meaning that the first one had. James Cameron hated it so much that he wanted to take his name off the script.
@@jacoblitchfield2527 bollocks
@Mr.1-UP They changed it even before it was filmed because Stallone wanted to tone down the violence, although the street rumor was always that they did that so they could make sequels. I never heard that they ever filmed such a scene.
To get the full impact of this scene, you have to watch the full movie first. He is constantly silent, straight-faced, barley says a word, and seems like an unstoppable force. And then to just see him completely break down in this last scene is absolutely heartbreaking.
metaphor for what all men go through in society
Stallone said in an interview that the first draft of the movie Rambo had a bunch of lines to give the character backstory but the end result sounded bad so instead they ditched that idea and had other characters do that for him, like colonel trautman
This scene is extremely underrated. It’s not only a movie. It’s reality 😢
Rambo said exactly how all of us feel💯💯💯
"Nothing is over! You don't just turn it off!" Those words really stick with me from this movie, it's a real struggle living with PTSD and feeling constantly anxious.
Stallone acted like he actually was included in the Vietnam war. I think this movie is better than his Rocky movies. The way his throws off the ammobelt like it was his friends bodyparts seems so real.
Both his Rambo and Rocky movies are equally as great
But he was! The colonel explained it during the conversation with the policeman in the tent!
First Blood will always be better than all the Rambo movies.
Only this movie. The rest of his Rambo movies are not that good.
@@0900370pian Last blood was pretty good too
This scene is so powerful. Not just with Stallones acting but with crennas too. He's the only father like figure Rambo seems to know, but not just a father like figure but someone who fought along side with him. Rambo really respects him as trautman respects him. I feel this movie was ahead of it's time.
This scene brought me to tears. I know they’re just acting but I can feel his emotion and his torment.
The Shoeshine box part is a true story that actually happened Sly met two Vietnam Vets who were actually on set when they told him there story about when they were In Saigon
Fucking hell it's partially true story
It's horrendous
What was the story?
@@robertisham5279 Im assuming from what Rambo was saying that a Veitnamese kid rigged a shoeshine box with explosives and was hoping to trick unsuspecting Americans into thinking he was going to shine their shoes when really it was a suicide bomb. In Rambo story he denies getting his shoes shined but his friend accepts so when Rambo walks away to buy a couple beers the bomb went off and blew his friend in half.
@@1headphoneguy it wasn't the kid, more than likely -- It was those in charge. My dad told me a story of when they had a kid running towards his line, obviously rigged. He was wrapped in explosives, he was running his ass off straight for them. He fired, and he ordered his men with him, to fire to stop the kid from reaching them. My dad cried about it and was asking me, "what was I suppose to do?". He talked about no way a kid would be able to rig that up and do it, it was things the guys in charge were doing and he thought that kids would do it because they were probably threatened themselves or the family. He would often tell me stories when he drank and was crying.
@@MrJerryluckey Oh yeah. I wasnt trying to imply the kid did it but thats very sad. War brings the worst out of people and unfortunately the use of children as bait or bombs wasnt something new by Vietnam times nor the last considering Afghanistan and Iraq years later. I hope youre dad eventually finds or has found peace, sorry to hear that.
I was born three years before the Vietnam War officially ended, but I have an older friend who served in that war when he was barely out of his teens. He served around 1967-1969, I think. Army Rangers. One night I watched this movie with him, and when this part came on his eyes went red with silent tears, his shoulders shaking a little. I could see his face reliving a nightmare from that war. I politely asked him what he was thinking about but of course, he never said, and I respectfully never asked him again. All he could say was: "I know this is just a movie, but I know that feeling, man." Not long after he tried to put a bullet in his head but his wife saved him. He's doing much better now, but sometimes when you look at him - even during video calls, as I now live overseas - you can see a flash of memories across his face. His oldest son now serves on the Army Rangers, and my friend prays each day that his son NEVER goes through what he did. God bless our men and women who serve their country. I'm not an American, but I lived there a long time ago, and I came to admire those honorable warriors. God bless you all, and thank you all for your service 🇺🇸
math doesn't add up but if his son serves right now. Not much to worry about. Oh sorry, I'm supposed to throw my like without thinking. my bad.
I normally don't like taking a piss over someone's comment but man you should put some thought into it...
Serving the country...to do what exactly? Invade other countries. How is that admirable? Or honorable?
I don't doubt that in their mind the intentions of soldiers are noble but they are used as cannon fodder by the state for profit.
@@user-tm9ho3bm4v Back then they were drafted, didn't have a choice. Today, yes, I do agree, but only kind of. You see American society is designed is such a way that joining the army is the only way for some folks, The Army gives a lot of benefits like free education, medical, housing, etc. It's crazy, America hates these ideas because they're "socialist" but ironically the US Army is the most socialist institution based on this standard. But, yes, if a person willingly volunteers to join the army during a war then I don't have much sympathy for them. Yes it sucks what is happening to you bro but you went out of your way to join in an invasion of a foreign nation.

@@Asphyx12 I wasn't talking about the drafted soldiers. Already said I do sympathise with the draftees. They didn't have a choice.
Richard Crenna also deserves massive acting credit for holding the silence during this scene.
Stallone should have definitely been taken more seriously as an actor after this role.
I've always loved the way this film was written. John Rambo is an enigma to us throughout the bulk of ‘First Blood’, but then hearing him vent his psychological pain and trauma really puts the preceding hour of the movie into perspective. He’s an unfortunate man haunted by the horrors of war who can’t adjust himself to the slings and stigmas of civilian life. Stallone plays this scene so perfectly that we really can feel his characters aguish; we want to cry with him.
This scene is an exemplary example of the horrors and gratification of War. Life is very simple, yet so profound. You have one sole job, and that's to watch your buddies back and he'll watch yours. Over there, you want nothing more but to be home with your friends and family. However, when you come back you realize you'd rather be over there with the realist family you ever had.
Yo mista wait

Walter White is a veteran of the Vietnam war confirmed.
As much as I love Stallones acting in this scene, and it truly is phenomenal, the thing that really breaks me is the Colonels reaction listening to Rambo's monologue, he doesn't need to speak, but Richard Crenna did a phenomenal job portraying Trautmans emotions, as he struggles to hold back his own emotions at realizing just how far he, and the war, broke the man in front him.
@Hitler Loves Anime H-Hitler Senpai?!
Exactly, it's a great mirror of the scene when Troutman is explaining to the sheriff how he made Rambo into the ultimate killing machine. He is so proud then of how he created the ultimate soldier, but here he sees the true cost of it and is deeply ashamed.
Whats even colder about this scene... The sheriff was still in the station... So you know he heard every last bit of this.
Watched this one today for the first time. Hurt me so unexpectedly. This badass dude doing badass things, harboring something like this inside. Cried so damn hard in front of my dad. No man deserves to feel like this.
This scene breaks me every time i swear to god
same here
It was done amazingly, that's why
And me....
Same here
I watched it for the first time yesterday and it hit something deep inside of me
It's why I feel for every Vietnam vet, they were called to do unbelievable things and returned to an ungrateful nation. My great uncle served two tours and returned home to people throwing rotten cabbage and beer cans at him. There were no parades or celebrations, just cold eyes and indignation
To be fair they made the same choice German conscripts did in WW2
They didn't stop the My Lai Massacre or punish those responsible
The Vietnam War showes everyone the US military isn't Superman, both physically and morally
Superman would have opposed the Vietnam War
I am Asian. I consider the Vietnam War much worse than 9/11!
@Christian Dauz there's too much here to unpack in a simple reply, but as far as trying to compare the Vietnam War to 9/11, it's not even close. There is a difference in the NVA and members of the VC since VC guerillas didn't wear uniforms and were indistinguishable from the civilian population. Thanks to movies like Platoon and Full Metal Jacket, the majority of the world thinks the actions of the US Army were one giant war crime and that's far from reality. My FIL is Hmong and was there and what VC communist guerillas did to innocent villages who wanted no part in the war, were far worse than what the US did and those atrocities continued long after the US left Vietnam and his family was able to escape to the US in 1978. Again, there's far more than can be explained in a reply here, but the gist of the problem US Vets faced was not only being conscripted, but then coming home to a nation who, thanks to the political environment of the 60s/early 70s absolutely treated them like garbage. War crimes were committed by both sides and while that doesn't make it "right" the actions of a VERY few in the US Army are overwhelmingly given the spotlight as if such actions were being taken by every member deployed there
@@sargepent9815
Didn't help that the US broke their end of the deal and invaded Vietnam
The deal was an election to decide which government would rule an united Vietnam
US broke it because everyone knew Ho Chin Minh would win the election. The US Army ARE THE OCCUPIERS. Also Racists
The US loves subverting democracy abroad
The US Army lost its moral high ground on Vietnam. Never recovered it
The Vietcon are no different from the Minutemen. Except one is White and the other is Not
I wish I can go back in time to Industrialized the Bronze Age Civilizations such as Egypt, Sumeria, India, China and Peru!
Trump should have died in Vietnam
@Christian Dauz wrong, we invaded NORTH Vietnam which was a seperate country at the time and the VC werent anything like the minute men since they invaded south vietnam in the 1950s after the French left what was known as Indochina at that time. This was over a decade before the US even got involved. Considering I have family that lived and fought against communist guerillas from childhood through their 30s, you have a severe misguided view on what actually happened amd I can see by your inaccurate statement and bigotry that you're a victim of progressive education, so this is a pointless exchange. BTW, absolutely nothing is stopping you from going to live in Communist Vietnam, so feel free to renounce your citizenship and leave if you're so inclined. In any case, go troll somewhere else bigot.
Strange, my uncle served in Vietnam and never felt much resentment from people when he came back. From what he says, neither did the guys in his unit that he kept in touch with. It feels like it happened at some spots, and in the years since, its been embellished to the point that we currently think everyone in the country treated him and others like him like garbage. He thinks its more of a myth that's been accepted as fact. I mean, he could be wrong, but he personally never felt persecuted. As I said, could be wrong, but he lived it and I didn't, so I have to believe what he's saying.
As for no parades or celebrations, why would people celebrate something they were against? That makes no sense.
That is exactly why I love this movie! Rambo, who seemed cold and heartless, finally express what’s in his soul and guts! Probably, Stallone’s most dramatic role!🙏🏻
Stallone's best role and performance in my opinion. This scene really moved me. Too bad all sequels after this couldn't live up to the original.
You have to see trautman's face after hearing every Word the look in his eyes is a look of a father and a teacher that found you in your worst and the best thing he did was that hug. GREAT MOVIE
rambo just needed a safe person to hear him out
Very underrated acting on his part. So many words said by just his expressions. Ofc Sly was great
As a future psychologist and teacher, this really did hit the nail on the head when it comes how veterans feel when they want to fully express their emotions and thought at the time. Even today, you can see this with the PTSD they are diagnosed with. This entire idea and point of the movie and book is about the hardship and loss the veterans have gone through when they returned home. Yes there is a lot of action scenes, but that doesn't disturb the message that Rambo has demons he is fighting. You can see the weight of chains within Rambo, like a past holding him down. Sly's portrayal of this character, I mean damn they couldn't have found another actor.
Completely agree. So sad and moving.

It should of gotten an Oscar for that
The sad thing is that I have several friends fresh out of the Marines who are basically going through this right now. Telling me about how expensive all their equipment was and how they were responsible for it every single day, how they were put into situations where they were literally responsible for the lives of their soldiers, and now places won't even hire them to work a cash register.

"And nobody would help!"
That's the peak for me, man. What a crushing delivery. Stallone is exceptionally skilled.
The way the colonel tries to hold back tears.. golden.
When he says “I don’t talk to anybody…sometimes a day…sometimes a week…” Damn I felt that.
This scene hits me so badly. My friend died from a suicide bomber, we were on patrol in Afghanistan and some guy casually strolled by my unit in the street and detonated himself, one second my friend was there, the next he was gone like he never existed. Here I am years later with scars over my body from shrapnel and can no longer work because of all my injuries. I managed to do 3 tours over there, a few kills to my belt and my final deployment almost killed me. Then I find out the US President gave it back to the terrorists, so we fought and died for nothing.
Saying Thank you for your service at this point probably rings pretty hollow but Thank You ...Our military industry complex has always been a heartless machine that has never treated our soilders with the respect and care you so rightly deserve ..They create these wars and put you guys into them like some kind of pawns in their sick game ..All for their own greed and wealth while you guys bare the emotiona and physical scars...I always thought like so many that the wars we have fought in were for the right reasons ..Now after being here for over 50 yrs I know that there is a reason that is justified but that's not why they send you off to war ...It's for all the wrong reasons and these evil bastards know it ..Their reasons never align with the soilders and now they have gone ahead and injected all our young men and women with a posein that will destroy them without even going to war ...It's so far beyond fixing now it's just a matter of time..they said the United States woukd be destroyed from the inside out ..Never could of imagined where we are today ...It makes me sick knowing my family members fought for this country in WWII Korean War and Vietnam only to have it turn out like this ...they've planned this destruction a long time ago ...This is high treason against our citizens and our military and they should all hang for what they have done and continue to do !...You deserve so much better soilder I'm sorry our country let you guys down

Joe Biden gave it back and left everything and everyone behind.
Not the US President. Joe Biden did that.
The Afghani people gave it back to the terrorists. After 20 years, thousands of lives lost, many more wounded trillions spent, and they still didn't have the gumption to defend themselves. How many more soldiers needed to be lost or maimed? We weren't there for permanent occupation. Inevitably we were going to leave. The President and Congress didn't give it back, because it was never ours. The Afghani people refused to defend what had been won on their behalf. Blame them.
@@jesusnthedaisychain It was not America's duty to "civilize" or "free" the Afghani people. It was their internal matter, their civil war. Clearly they preferred stability over constant warfare. I'm not defending Taliban but it must be offering something that the US backed government wasn't. You could see from the ending phases of the war, all top politicians of the Government ran with loads of money. They were corrupt and out of touch with the people. They were cowards. The Afghani military tried its best but there is only so much you can do when you constantly receive the order to retreat from up top the moment Taliban shows up at the outskirts.

Did you pay respect to Collin Powell?
I love Trautman here, you can tell he has had the exact same experiences. Trying to hold it together
I appreciate that Trautman, himself likely a WWII vet just lets Rambo talk about remembering his friend who was blown up by an IED. Who knows how many friends he lost during the war he understands Rambo's pain. For the longest time all Rambo had was himself and his broken PTSD-ridden mind filled with painful and haunting memories he never will forget. This is the only Rambo movie I fully enjoy because it is the most realistic. The 2nd one was good but nowhere near as good as this.
@Hitler Loves Anime it lacked emotional depth of this one where one man pushed past his limits snaps it didn’t feel like an action movie the second one nearly removed the majority of the emotional impact
Wish they had of gone back with Rambo rather than forward...Shown us what The Delta Team he was apart of was like, the IED attack scene would've been brutal.
@@TingusPingus445 It actually tried though at times, especially when Rambo gets the opportunity to rescue fellow Vietnam POWs and to tell Trautman face to face that he doesn't need or a Medal of Honor but those whom he rescued do despite that they all deserved it.
Yeah the second one would have been better if he only found evidence of possible prisoners or perhaps a Vietnamese guy who told him they were there but died. The part about him rescuing them was unrealistic. That film could have been a lot better but instead they went for action.
I'd imagine it would be worse for Rambo. As far as I know WWII vets came home to more fanfare than Vietnam vets.
thank you veterans

What a great actor, Sylvester... He's a noteworthy movie creator. His message is touching whether in Rambo or Rocky. His topic was ahead of his time.
this scene became a movie about the events of a veteran elite soldier and his psychological drama and losing his friends. I even did it right now it made me cry even in the comment. War is always hell and unnecessary.

Anyone who’s a veteran and fought for this country whether it was WWII, Vietnam, or Afghanistan, or Iraq, can truly relate to this scene. It is very sad to know this scene isn’t fantasy. Scores of ex military experience PTSD like this or worse. Spare a thought if you have a family member who is or was in the military and fought in a war or some type of conflict.

Anyway, the Marines visited his shotgun house (recruitment) and talked to his parents and him .. after learning the truth they discussed what happens when this sort of thing happens (a crime to lie on these docs). Luckily his parents said yeah we're ok with it...they took out life insurance on him for themselves. Flash forward, he retired out at around 30 years in the Marines (E-9). He had some stories about his tours there. I've tried to get his service record so I and his grandkids can know what he went through.. that was over a year ago and I've heard nothing.

Man, Stallone absolutely nailed this scene.
This guy can act, no matter what other people say.
Growing up, we had a family friend who fought in Vietnam. He came back and joined a biker gang just to have somewhere to belong. He was called a baby killer, murderer, and so many other things upon returning and it hurt worse than bullets ever could. To be disrespected by his own people after risking his life for a war he didn’t ask for. He died a few years ago after battling a disease he supposedly contracted while in Vietnam. I’ve never known a nicer guy. He was a tough, intimidating man with a teddy bear of a soul. He loved to eat frosting with his granddaughters and play with his dogs, but you could always see when those memories surfaced. Especially when the stare would come back.
Wow that’s amazing. The trauma is real
My mom is south Vietnamese and grew up in the middle of the war. It was American soilders who allowed her and her family to escape. The story as she tells it is her and thousands others were waiting at an airfield for cargo planes to take them out of the country as the NVA were gaining ground quickly. The NVA made it to the airfield before the planes did and were shooting at the south Vietnamese civilians. The Americans defended the airfield for hours until the planes arrived. When they did arrive they still defended the air field. All of the soilders apparently died to protect the south Vietnamese. My mom said she’s eternally grateful for folks like your grandfather.
I'm probably not gonna get an answer but do you know what biker club he joined? Just curious, I'm fascinated by motorcycle clubs.

Sometimes Stallone gets dismissed as an unserious actor. But he's quite an intellect, able to pull off not just the amazing script, but the whole Cinderella enterprise that was Rocky. And here in this clip, in Cop Land, and other places, he shows his range and his tenacity and focus. When he's wanted to, he hits greatness. Hats off to him.
