Shadows

When Willard finally meets Kurtz in Apocalypse Now, I was really annoyed that you couldn't see his face because of all the shadows. But then I got to thinking about how the Coppola wanted to show that Kurtz is a dark character. Pretty cool...

The Dog

This might be terrible, but I felt worse for that cute puppy than for all those Vietnamese people that died in Kilgore's attack. Isn't that ironic and horrible? That I felt more empathy for a dog than for hundreds of people. Am I alone here?
That was a really cute puppy. I looked on the internet, but I couldn't find any backstory about the puppy or even his owner. Too bad.
