#23SIFF01# 4.5 guide cut version. It's great to watch on the big screen, but to put it bluntly, this is actually a philosophical film. The reflection on the Vietnam War brings questions about modernity and the prospect of civilization and madness in the progress of postmodernism. There is no flaw in the first half. Due to the distortion of the protagonist's spiritual world, the pre-set "God's perspective" shows a strong didactic meaning. However, nature is a textbook-level demonstration of the battlefield "road film", technically aerial panning, overlapping montages, and ingenious use of natural sounds, as well as the highly logical and self-consistent reflection on the script have established its important position in film history.

2020.7.28 SIFF was re-screened ten years later and found that it was a more personal movie than imagined. Use 180 minutes to describe the madness. Full of oracles, but also completely anti-climax.

Photo Journalist: He can be terrible. He can be mean. And he can be right. He's a great man. I wish I had words, man. I wish I had words... I can tell ya something like the other day he wanted to kill me. Somethin' like that.
Willard: Why'd he wanna kill you?
Photo Journalist: Because I took his picture. He said "If you take my picture again, I'm gonna kill you." And he meant it! So you just lay back. Lay cool. He becomes friendly again, he really does. But you don't judge the Colonel. You don't judge the Colonel like an ordinary man.

Willard: [about Colonel Kilgore] Well, he wasn't a bad officer, I guess. He loved his boys, and he felt safe with 'em. He was just one of those guys with that weird light around him. He just knew he wasn't gonna get so much as a scratch here.
