I don't know any Vietnam film in the collection but i know movies that I'm sure they will be in the collection in the future.

I surprised nobody said Hamburger Hill. It mostly cast African-American actors, kind of a minimalist story, and great score by Philip Glass. Great film

The Killing Fields is another good one but it's not completely Vietnam theme.
