Tigerland is a 2000 American war drama film directed by Joel Schumacher and starring Colin Farrell as Private Roland Bozz.
It takes place in a training camp for soldiers to be sent to the Vietnam War.
Tigerland was the name of a U.S.
Army training camp during the mid-1960s to early 1970s located at Fort Polk, Louisiana as part of the U.S.
Army Advanced Infantry Training Center.
As often the last stop for new infantrymen on their way to Vietnam, Tigerland was established in humid and muggy Fort Polk in order to closely mimic the environmental conditions of South Vietnam.
While the film's setting is loosely based on Fort Polk, the film was actually filmed at Camp Blanding in Florida.
