Apocalypse Now
So I recently watched "Apocalypse Now." Believe it or not, I have never seen this 1979 classic before. It is an incredible film, modeled on Joseph Conrad's book "The Heart Of Darkness." I thought it did a great job of capturing the madness of war (especially that one), and applying Conrad's story to a completely different context. Some of the more unforgettable scenes include the opening, set to the Doors' "The is The End," and soldiers surfing in the middle of a bloody air attack on a beachside village.
