Other films showing the Vietnam War: "Field Platoon" (1986), "Deer Hunter" (1978), "Full Metal Shell" (1987), "Vietnam War Trauma" (1989). "Apocalypse Now" is different from other Vietnam War movies, and even any other movie, because it penetrates into the dark place of the soul. It is not so much a depiction of war, as it is how war has revealed the truth that we never want to discover: a person with good luck can live a happy life in a silly way, never knowing that he is just on the edge of the abyss. Koz would go crazy because he discovered this. In the section of the French restaurant, it may be difficult for people to understand its necessity. Because the journey along the river has established a rhythm, it will be disturbed if it is delayed for too long on the bank. Moreover, it is not realistic for these people to survive in a small enclosed area (and maintain a high quality of life). In this regard, Coppola's explanation is that he treats the French as ghosts. The spirits of these people are like ghosts that warn Americans.
