Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Released in 1993, Heaven & Earth is Oliver Stone's third film about The Vietnam War, following Platoon and Born on the Fourth of July. These three films are often said to form a "trilogy", although they merely share subject matter and do not take place in a shared continuity.This film is notable for telling the story of the war from the Vietnamese perspective, a viewpoint which Stone had been criticized for excluding in his two previous Vietnam films. The movie is Very Loosely Based on a True Story, being adapted from the memoirs of Le Ly Hayslip, a Vietnamese peasant girl who married an American soldier and became a humanitarian in the U.S. It stars Tommy Lee Jones, Joan Chen, Haing S. Ngor, and Hiep Thi Le.Not to be confused with the Hong Kong film Tian Di, which is retitled Heaven and Earth in foreign releases.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

All Men Are Perverts: In the first half of the movie, practically every male character (whether American or Vietnamese) wants to get into Le Ly's pants, whether she wants it or not. | |

All Asians Wear Conical Straw Hats: As you'd expect of a movie set in Vietnam during the war, these hats are worn by many people, including our heroine at several points. | |

Domestic Abuse: While things are nice for a while after they return to America, eventually Steve becomes unpredictably angry and violent, at one point aiming a gun at the back of Le Ly's head. | |
