Matthew Modine, known for his role in Stanley Kubrick's 'Full Metal Jacket', has strongly criticized Donald Trump for using footage from the film in a campaign ad, which promotes a traditional military stance while mocking LGBTQ+ representation. Modine likened Trump's manipulation of the film's anti-war message to Nazi propaganda, drawing parallels between Trump and Adolf Hitler, and referencing Leni Riefenstahl's infamous works. He stated that Trump has distorted Kubrick's powerful narrative into a 'perverse, homophobic, and manipulative tool of propaganda'. While Modine condemned this use, Vivian Kubrick, daughter of Stanley Kubrick, suggested that her father might have supported the ad's message, arguing it reflects on the paradoxes of human nature. Trump's ad juxtaposes clips from the film with modern military members dancing in drag, accompanied by the slogan, 'WE WILL NOT HAVE A WOKE MILITARY!'. This controversy highlights ongoing tensions between traditional military values and evolving social norms.
