Brought a tear to my eye. Compared to this guy, the drill instructors we had were friggin'hand-holding nancy-boys.

This is probably the best scene in the movie.

from IMDb: R. Lee Ermey (Gunnery Sergeant Hartman) was in the US Marine Corps for 11 years.

He's just brilliant.

IIRC, Roger Ebert gave Full Metal Jacket a Thumbs Down in the same show he gave Benji the Hunted a Thumbs Up.

What's remarkable about this clip, and Kubrick films in general, is that he uses extremely long takes. The first part is a continuous tracking shot that runs well over a minute.

Another thing that gives Kubrick films a unique look is that he uses natural or existing lighting whenever possible. This scene is probably lit from the windows, which are covered on the outside with paper. If studio lights were used, they would be outside the windows.

In this clip, Private Pyle is played by Vincent D'Onofrio, who's on Law & Order: Criminal Intent, and also played Orson Welles in the movie "Ed Wood" (although Welle's voice was dubbed by cartoon voice-actor Maurice LaMarche).

In response to therealblankman, Army drill instructors reduced the severity of their treatment of troops due to complaints and the desire of the army to reach a lower drop out rate from the dwindling volunteers that are coming in.

It is my stern belief however that the military is not a game and thus it should be as sever as possible because ultimately training must become instinct based for the soldier. And there is nothing more impressionable then R. Lee Ermey.

To add to the trivia, R. Lee Ermey actually went and rewrote the Drill sargent part because he did not think it was realistic.
