Matthew Modine Slams Amazon For Changing
Matthew Modine, who starred in the 1987 Stanley Kubrick war movie “Full Metal Jacket,” is upset that Amazon changed the artwork on the platform’s landing page for renting the film. Modine took to X to slam the streamer for tweaking the poster of the Oscar-nominated film. “Who decided to remove ‘BORN TO KILL?’ ‘’ Modine wrote in his tweet, adding, “Not only did they alter a piece of iconic art by Philip Castle, but they completely misunderstood the point of it being there.” On the movie’s original poster, there’s a helmet with “Born to kill” written on it. Prime Video dropped the phrase, and showed the helmet sans the words on their version of the poster for the movie. It was the last Kubrick film released during his lifetime; he died in 1999 from a heart attack at age 70.
