FRANKIE'S HOUSE (1992)

PETER FISK

Plot

1964: Tim Page has been recruited as a rookie photographer to cover the war in Vietnam. Amidst the brutality, horror and cynicism of war-torn Saigon he discovers friendships with his fellow reporters, especially combat photographer Sean Flynn, son of movie star Erroll Flynn. With a bravado that only the young can display, they relish taking the risks that their old and more war-weary colleagues shun, counter pointing this adrenalin rush with the sex, drugs and rock'n'roll that are permanently on offer at Frankie's House. An absorbing BAFTA winning series based on Tim Page's original book.
