It has nothing to do with absurdity-----Apocalypse Now

I have been admired for a long time. I thought it was at most a shocking Vietnam War film, but the facts tell me that Apocalypse Now has already surpassed the Vietnam War. Its outstandingness is destined to be worthy of the classics.

Half of the success of Apocalypse Now depends on Conrad, if Without Dark Heart as the material for novels like nb, Coppola's understanding of war and human nature is by no means that deep. !

Oh, Sai Kung! I deeply suspect in Jiang Wen took the first sunny day in a line -------- Beijing! is completely mimic the Apocalypse in the first sentence of the lines, ----- -----Saigon! The simple two words are full of complex emotions.


The word most used by many film critics in Apocalypse Now is "alienation". Indeed, many scenes make people feel that this is not war at all, it is beyond All the routines of war, this is the greatest part of Coppola. On the one hand, we rationally think that this is the evil side of human beings, but we are indeed high in the senses. Hearing the classic line: I like to hear it in the morning. When it comes to the smell of petrol bombs, when you see the scene of crazy shooting under Wagner's music, no one does not admit that the blood is stubborn!

The role of Marlon Brando is ridiculous, but I prefer to understand him as a vain character , The heart of a politician projected in front of the public is like Brad Pitt's role in a fight club. It seems ridiculous, but in fact it is just like in our dreams. We are as ridiculous as we are, so I am more I feel that Apocalypse Now is a work in a dream, but it is so shocking when projected under the sunshine of reality!


Nothing to say, tribute to Coppola!
