41. Apocalypse Now
    Play's review of Francis Ford Coppola's extraordinary adaptation of joseph conrad's Heart of Darkness novel. The meaning of the film, and a misconception of Marlon Brando's performance, are provided in detail.  
    http://www.geocities.com/ResearchTriangle/Forum/6370/apocalypsenow.html
    
    Extractions: "Charging a man with murder in this place was like handing out speeding tickets at the Indy 500" Francis Ford Coppola's study of insanity in the Vietnam War is a magnificent creation. Artful cinematography, bizarre elements, a probing and complex script based on Joseph Conrad's dark, depressing novel and top-name actors as unlikable characters, all make this commentary a masterpiece. Every character in this film is severly unhinged or ironically contrasted with the battle-strewn surroundings which lends considerable quality to Coppola's study of man's capacity for evil and madness. Coppola's nervous breakdown and Martin Sheen's heart attack during filming are eerily appropriate in their coincidental parallels with the mental disintegration themes of the picture. "Apocalypse Now" is a film capable of driving a casual viewer insane with the unhinged actions of its characters and Coppola's phenomenal adaptations of Joseph Conrad's primitive novel accentuates an absorbing journey into the human psyche. Coppola's "war" film is a study into man's capacity for evil and insanity. The film's brightest moments occur with Laurence Fishburne's on-screen death which connects Coppola's Vietnam film with Conrad's primitive journey towards Kurtz. A personal favorite and a great addition by Coppola is the narrative introducing Cook, who is "Wound too tight for New Orleans." Martin Sheen is dead-on as the suffering soldier unable to cleanse himself of Vietnam, and his symbolic journey down the dark rivers of Cambodia towards his target is a profound journey through the mind of madness. Marlon Brando's hollow, monosyllabic performance as Kurtz is widely misunderstood (considered a fatal flaw in the film by many critics) but he captures an important aspect of the novel and the "emptiness" essence of the war.

What signs are there that the narrator is sympathetic to them? ensign (1) dropped limp like a rag; the muzzles of the long six-inch guns stuck out all over the low hull; the greasy, slimy swell swung her up lazily and let her down, swaying her thin masts. In the empty immensity of earth, sky, and water, there she was, incomprehensible, firing into a continent. Pop, would go one of the six-inch guns; a small flame would dart and vanish, a little white smoke would disappear, a tiny projectile would give a feeble screechand nothing happened. Nothing could happen. There was a touch of insanity in the proceeding, a sense of lugubrious drollery in the sight; and it was not dissipated by somebody on board assuring me earnestly there was a camp of nativeshe called them enemies!hidden out of sight somewhere. "We gave her her letters (I heard the men in that lonely ship were dying of fever at the rate of three a day) and went on. We called at some more places with farcical names, where the merry dance of death and trade goes on in a still and earthy atmosphere as of an overheated catacomb; all along the formless coast bordered by dangerous surf, as if Nature herself had tried to ward off intruders; in and out of rivers, streams of death in life, whose banks were rotting into mud, whose waters, thickened into slime, invaded the contorted mangroves that seemed to writhe at us in the extremity of an impotent despair. Nowhere did we stop long enough to get a particularized impression, but the general sense of vague and oppressive wonder grew upon me. It was like a weary pilgrimage amongst hints for nightmares.

    Extractions: Women's History Month Resources Heart of Darkness By Joseph Conrad Joseph Conrad, author of Heart of Darkness J oseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness had its genesis in his personal experience working on a Congo River steamer in 1890, five years after King Leopold of Belgium established the Congo Free State. By 1898, when Conrad sat down to write the story, conditions in the Congo were already becoming a political issue in England. Protests by the Aborigines Protection Society of systematic abuses in the Congo led to debate in the British House of Commons in 1897. Although it did not begin as a political statement, and Conrad later declined invitations to join the Congo Reform Association, Heart of Darkness was an important literary intervention into the emerging debate about atrocities in the Congo. Edmund Dene Morel, who founded the Congo Reform Association in 1904, described Conrad's story as "the most powerful thing ever written on the subject." For Morel, the title became synonymous with the "tortured African world" of the Congo that suffered under the autocratic rule of King Leopold, a man Morel described as "a great genius for evil." Heart of Darkness was first published serially in Blackwood's Magazine in February, March and April of 1899, and was reprinted in the United States the following year as an eight-part series in
