25 February 2019
Watched Apocalypse Now featuring Martin Sheen(Taxi) as Captain Ben Willard, Robert Duvall(THX-1138) as Lieutenant Colonel Bill Kilgore, Frederic Forrest(it Lives Again) as Jay "Chef: Hicks,Albert Hall(Kojak) as Chief Petty Officer George Phillips, Sam Bottoms(The Outlaw Josey Wales) as Gunners Mate Lance B.Johnson , Dennis Hopper(Easy Rider) as American Photojournalist ,Scott Glenn(Fighting Mad) as Captain Richard M.Colby , Harrison Ford(Star Wars) as Colonel Lucas and Marlon Brando(Superman:The Movie) as Colonel Walter E. Kurtz.

while this movie has war in it its more of a Quest Film but this has no shortages of great performances also Ben Willards Psyche is demonstrated by the various characters around him also while the film is vague on this but it seems either Willard becomes Kurtz or Kurtz become Willard also Kurtz played Brilliantly by the Late Marlon Brando is an interesting Villain also inspiration for MCUs Thanos which you can see and its implied he is willing to do terrible things for the greater good its a brilliant film from The Famous Ride Of The Valkyries Bombing Run to Kurtz Final Words The Horror The Horror All I can some it up There Are War Movies Then There's Apocalypse Now.

Amazing Score by Carmine Coppola( Napoleon), , Cinematography By Vittorio Storaro (Agatha) and Direction by Francis Ford Coppola(The Godfather ) There Are War Movies Then There's Apocalypse Now 9 /10
