Vietnam, Vietnam was a United States Information Agency (USIA) film about the Vietnam War. The film, narrated by Charlton Heston, was shot on location in Vietnam in October–December 1968 but not released until 1971. Though John Ford, the executive producer, went to Vietnam, he did not participate in production work there. Ford later did supervise the editing and rewrote the film scenario.

Bruce Herschensohn, the producer, remarked that the purpose of the film was to provide a "balance" to the view which critics of the war were providing. Due to the changing political situation in Vietnam, the film went through numerous cuts and script alterations over a three-year period and, when finally released, managed to offend almost everyone. Critical reviews were unfavorable. USIA Director Frank Shakespeare left the decision on whether or not to order a copy of the film up to individual US Embassies abroad, and only a few did.

Opening remarks by Charlton Heston and Mickey Rooney are used to establish the film’s direction and mood. Introductory scenes quickly dissolve into one laced with sounds of thunder and artillery fire. The setting is atop Niagara Falls where waters cascade over the falls’ edge. Superimposed in the haze are dissolving scenes of American conflicts from the American Revolutionary War through Desert Storm.

Le film présente et analyse la stratégie allemande pour conquérir l’espace vital hitlérien. Il met en évidence toutes les bassesses orchestrées par Hitler pour étendre petit à petit son empire, malgré les pactes de non-agression signés avec la plupart des pays européens.

Le fait débute par un rappel historique. Il évoque les controverses liées au Général William Mitchell, pionnier de l'aviation militaire entre 1919 et 1936, année de sa mort. Il militait pour le développement d'une aviation ayant des bombardiers, mais sa hiérarchie croyait en la supériorité de la marine de guerre. En 1925, il fut même rétrogradé comme colonel.

Un documentaire soulignant, à travers des images d'archives et des témoignages, les enjeux et les attitudes contradictoires des témoins de la guerre du Viêtnam. Le titre vient directement d'un discours du président Lyndon Johnson qui déclara, en tentant de justifier l'envoi de soldats au Viêtnam, que l'ultime victoire ne se gagnerait qu'avec le cœur et l'esprit des hommes qui vivent là-bas.
