Elias Koteas is also in the film. Didn't have a place to bring that up in the piece.

If I had known what Anjelica Huston looked like in Gardens of Stone, I would have watched it a lot sooner! She’s just luminous. Radiant. Glorious! I wish she was the star of the picture, as I do with most pictures, whether Huston is in the film or not.

There really isn’t much to say about Gardens of Stone, Francis Ford Coppola’s middling but pleasant 1987 Vietnam War picture, not to be confused with his excellent 1979 Vietnam War picture that we haven’t gotten to yet.
