Dogfight is a 1991 film set in San Francisco, California, during the Vietnam War (1963 – 1966). It stars River Phoenix and Lili Taylor, and was directed by Nancy Savoca.
The film explores the love between an 18-year-old Marine, Corporal Eddie Birdlace, on his way to Vietnam, and a young woman, Rose Fenny. Both lovers are portrayed as innocent and inexperienced: Birdlace is angry and inept, Fenny is idealistic yet unsophisticated.
The first portion of the film is set on November 21, 1963 (the day before President John F. Kennedy was assassinated). Birdlace and three of his Marine buddies have arrived in San Francisco for twenty-four hours, before shipping off to Vietnam, and are planning on attending a "dogfight" (a party where Marines compete to bring the ugliest date, unbeknownst to the girls they bring) later that evening. They separate into the city to attempt to find dates. After a few women reject his advances, Birdlace ducks into a coffee shop, where he encounters Rose, a waitress, on her break, practicing her guitar. She is not particularly "ugly", but rather plain, shy and awkward. Birdlace attempts to charm her, complimenting her on her guitar playing, and inviting her to a party. She is suspicious of his motives, but decides to accept his invitation.

Okay, so this is movie many people have never even heard of. That's sad because it's really awesome movie that deserves to be seen. The only problem is that it's a hard movie to explain, that was it's downfall. The company producing the film couldn't figure out how to market it and it ended up slipping through the cracks. It sounds terrible, a guy bringing a girl to a party for 'ugly" girls, but it's actually a very endearing story. Now, those of you who have seen this movie may ask why I didn't use a song from the film's soundtrack (which is fantastic by the way). I'll tell you why, not many people listen to folk music anymore. At least not many people my age anyway, I love it. So, I used a fairly popular song to try and get the word out to people. The film stars River Phoenix (Stand...

Cold
But I'm still breathing in
Ignored
So what I'm used to it
I'm pushed aside
Not realized
I'm sick of all this shit
I'm feeling numb I'm on my own
I'll take another hit
I'd rather be
I'd rather be
I'd rather be all alone
Bored
I'm full of uselessness
I'm sore
I'm sick of all your shit
I'd rather be
I'd rather be
I'd rather be all alone
I'd rather be
I'd rather be
I'd rather be all alone
Alone
Alone
