Colburn and Thompson: "the enemy" was us. Twenty years after the world learned about the massacre of hundreds of Vietnamese villagers by American soldiers, the legacy of My Lai is examined in this British documentary. Some participants in the slaughter of March 16, 1968 are still haunted by it, including a former dileman who still sees it "in my nightmares." Vietnamese survivors are also interviewed, as is former helicopter door-gunner Lawrence Colburn, who describes how pilot Hugh Thompson was so "desperate" to help civilians that he gave orders to shoot Americans if necessary. (60 min.)
