Oliver Stone – „Platoon“ (1986)

Dschungel, Schlamm und konstante Paranoia. Absolut keine Helden, kein Happy End. Ein Film, wie schweres Fieber. Und ein Film von Oliver Stone. Es ist tatsächlich spürbar, dass er dabei war, in Vietnam. Der Schweiß, die Mücken, die Schreie in der Nacht – nichts davon wirkt erfunden. Schon die erste Szene lässt das Publikum jede Hoffnung verlieren. Keine Hollywood-Kriegs-Glorie, sondern nur eine Schilderung des Überlebens von Stunde zu Stunde. Tag zu Tag. (ARD)

A golden lion with a Bird’s view

A Royal Golden lion guard sharing a bird’s view on the spot where Tonle Sap and Mekong Rivers are meeting. It is just in front of the Royal Square and Royal Castle in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

This meeting point is at the middle of Sisowath Quay river walk. It is still a nice walk both north and south from this point. If the cooling breeze from the river is there, of course. On a quiet day it will become a very hot walk pretty fast.

This riverside walk has been extended after the Pandemic. Now it extends north towards the Chroy Changvar Bridge, were the large main roads north and northwest enters Phnom Penh proper. And it has been stretched south along, around and over Koh Pich Island with its modern riverside development of housing and shopping areas.

Along the walk there are some interesting places to take photos, and there are new offerings of drinks and eating targeting people enjoying this walk. Being locals or visitors.

King Sisowath was king of Cambodia in the early 1900s, at the time Phnom Penh was called the Pearl of Asia because of the French Asian architecture, modern city design and art deco styled facades and public art.

Today the riverside walk mirrors this experience, showing the growth and development of a new metropolitan area in Southeast Asia.

"Old angry man blue sky river"

An evening where a sudden change to rainy clouds added heavy blue tone to the Tonle Sap River Walk along Sisowath Quay.

And some reminiscence of a rather angry man in the cloud warning of a rainy night, indeed...

In the evening, the riverside fills up by locals socializing, playing, exercising, eating, drinking, dating and selling. It is hard to say if it is more lively there than in the old town behind Sisowath Quay, or the heavy trafficked river filled with boats on the other side.

The river boats offering day cruise, sunset cruise or dinner cruise are always out try to fill up their boats. Their sales agents work hard to get late arriving guests to choose their boat for the evening.

This evening’s river cruise boats waiting for their guests may need to prepare for a reduced visibility later. On the other hand, with this sunset, customers will be compensated.
