What would have to have happened, both in terms of how the war went historically and how it is perceived by later generations, for CCR's music to be used as much in Vietnam movies as the music of that OTHER group is?
Like, I love me some Creedence, but Bad Moon Rising?
Why would Vietnamese directors do that? Their postwar films are all such rambling existentialist noir pieces, like Days In Hue ; having English-language bubblegum rock like CCR would make no sense, artistically. Maybe Claude François or some other French pop artist, but even that I doubt.

I can’t see the phallus reclaimed action movies like “POW Prison Break II” or “Haiphong Aces” for the working class using folk dreck. I associate these films with hair rock.
