One of the most legendary endings in the history of movie making. And they couldn’t have picked a better song to seal the deal. “ He took a face from the ancient gallery and he …….. “
The Killer Awoke Before Dawn
He Put His Boots On
I don't get it. Why is the song perfect?
@@TotalTech2. It's a really long song, that starts slow and then picks up tempo leading to a feverish, abruptly ending climax of the composition which fits the construction of the movie prefectly. In fact, it's the same song that's in the beginning of it. The lyrics are really strange and full of hidden meanings, but can be applied to what's happening; they describe a killer, and Cpt Willard is in fact sent to kill a man. "He took a face from the ancient gallery" is another interesting bit, as he uses facepaint to disguise himself, and in the dark of the night his face eerily resembles the cambodian statues and sculptures in the ancient temple. "Blue Bus" was one of the many street names for a variety of drugs including opioids, although Jim might have meant something else by it. Overall these are just few of the reasons i believe it's a great choice of song for the movie; it was also contemporary to the Vietnam War.
@@TotalTech2.The list of reasons is long and distinguished. @ppppppf covers many of them, but here's a few further explanations. Let's start with the instrumental sounds themselves. They sound exotic, somewhat psychedelic, which befits a lot of where they're going, and reflects that drugs were used by the crew on the boat.. "The killer awoke before dawn..." He is there to kill, it is in fact his specialty. "He took a face from the ancient gallery.." refers to the mask of tragedy, (Morrison studied Theatre) and there is nothing about this story that isn't tragic, especially that an American soldier is sent to kill an American soldier. The reference to "The blue bus" to me refers to the sky-blue flight-line busses found on U.S. Air Force bases in le early 70's to transport troops from the terminal bldg. to their transport aircraft on the apron (I rode a few). "This is the end", as the last phrase of the song, as the movie is ending, sung with matter-of fact sadness, you can't beat that.
I agree. But I personally have trouble watching it because of the animal sacrifice. A really animal was killed for this scene and that isn't right. But holy mother is it a beautiful scene.
I have read the book recently and it just took this scene to a whole different level of meaning. This movie is such an outstanding adapatation of Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness". You gotta love them both!
Mistah kurts, he dead.
@@ganeshwarsekhri2810 read again. That's not what I've said.
Ok
"He just wanted to go out like a soldier. Standing up..." Dodges Willard's swings until he's standing up 2:50
Kurtz goes out like a Soldier...stands up on his own two feet.
Even the jungle wanted him dead, and that’s who he really took orders from.
Crazy that Coppola made 3 genuine aeguments for greatest film if all time. And somehow this is unquestionably his best
Okay, you can't count Godfather 1 and 2 as separate "greatest films of all time" :P

“They were gonna make me a Major for this , and I wasn’t even in their fucking army anymore”
I saw this for the first time last night. This might be the greatest ending to any movie ever.
Oh man I'm so jealous. My Mum always tells me how profound it was to walk out of the Cinema into the daylight when she saw this film when it originally came out. It must have been a trip.
I can still remember the first time I watched Apocalypse Now. I was 15 and had got hold of a vhs copy that had been recorded from a screening on BBC2.
At the end of the film me and my best friend sat in stunned silence and wondered what on earth we'd just experienced. We had started off watching one of the greatest war films ever, that then became one the greatest travelogue films ever, and then finished as one of the greatest horror films ever!
animals were DEFINITELY harmed in the filming of this, but done so under the auspicious of tribal customs
auspice
Just like a documentary! But dont worry about the little white puppy, i ran into him at Vics Bar about 6 months ago, and asked him about it. He said he got "a little roughed up, a little muddy, but I was fine!" And chuckled. (He's old now) "Hell," he said, "we were all tripping anyway!"
but hey, someone probably ate it anyways
Still sick. Savages.
@@theonewholurks do you eat meat?
Poor water buffalo man, innocent creature and suddenly being murdered like that. A great example of the horror.
"It's the judgment that defeats us. "
There's no cruelty or horror in this scene,it's just perspective.
Can you elaborate ?
@@crazypato3752 judging the trials for killing the Buffalo is kinda pointless because thar is apart of what they believe to be Holy, while westerners may consider it to be barbaric, but killing kurtz for example could also be understood as barbaric if seen from another perspective.
@@crazypato3752 This clip explains it best "we train young men to drop fire on people, but their commanders wont let them write fuck on the side of their airplanes because its obscene"
Pride and Judgement.
Col. Kilgore: I love the smell of napalm in the morning.
Col. Kurtz: The horror…the horror.
Col. Kilgore is respected and loved by the US military despite massacring an entire village.
Col. Kurtz has been encapsulated by the horror of war and as a result is an extreme threat who must be terminated.
It’s all about perspectives.
They was gonna make me a major for this….. and I wasn’t even in they f###ing army anymore. Classic
He became Kurtz at that moment.
@@JimBobsonJones007 no.
Not to 'flex...but, no.
He realized at that moment that he COULD become Kurtz.
He would be REVEARED as a
GOD by his 'new people ' after they watched him BEST there leader in hand to hand combat.
BUT THEN ..
The US military would 'just send someone else to get rid of him.
@@mattmingo7694 I think your idea is right, and so is mine, it is complex. Did he balance on the knife edge or go over to the other side, with Kurtz?
@@JimBobsonJones007 no.
In the novel heart of darkness...which this masterpiece is based on...
The main character realises what I wrote earlier...
No offense, I respect your idea. But at the END, after the BEAUTIFUL 'track by the DOORS...he goes home. His friend, who went TOTALLY 'native (buring the captain in the water.... Dancing as the tribe sacrificed the bull...)
Then, after he Hacks Kurtz to death, he simply GOES HOME.
Remember...he stated at the start that "in the jungle...all I wanted was to go home. At home...ALL I could think of was HOW to get back to the jungle. I am no longer 'fit' for Civilian duty"
#beautiful
Radio to street gang...come in. Radio to street gang...
The Horror is Kurtz realizing, he is the Enemy. And the act was already committed. The HORROR!
one of the best soundtracks ever
Kurtz won in a way as he passed on the mantle of his grim understanding of the nature of humans to Willard who freed Kurtz from his pain by killing him.
😂 GET A JOB 😅
@@unclecreepy8343 are you okay? Do you need help?
Your understanding is spot-on. Col. Kurtz had "Left the army", as hjighlighted by his line "Back when I was in Special Forces... seems like a thousand centuries ago" , and that being mirrored by Capt. Willard's "They were going to make me a Major for this, I wasn't even their fucking army anymore". Willard's statements about the Col. wanting him to do it, to die like a soldier also back it up. The Col. was no more evil than anything else there, less-so because he UNDERSTOOD what was necessary, and that understanding changed him.
I've read Heart of Darkness twice and will read it again.
Congratulations.
It is a challenging book. In some Australian schools it is a standard text in grade 12.
@@MrGroganmeisterThe hard part about reading it is how hazy it is with transitioning between what is actually happening and what Marlow is explaining
If you want to go deeper, read Fraser’s “The Golden Bough”, which is on Kurtz’s table.
Reflecting Kurtz as this mythical legend is very much how Brando was also seen in real life I feel.
Back in the old days, they called this a mercy killing but Willard seems to be in worse pain than Kurtz.
Makes me want to watch apocalypse now

well it's rated R so....
@@petak23 that really depends on the version.
Like the original theatrical cut (2hrs 33m)
It's more of violence and Profanity, it would be considered a 15
Now for the Final cut (3hrs) or Redux (3hrs 22m)
It would most likely be considered either Rated R or X since it adds nudity to the film.
(A dead man hanged with his you-know-what sticking out, and a woman naked for Willard in a scene)
Has anyone ever said it is for children?
I love this film on every level it left nothing to the imagination, those in the know call it the good stuff.Also,the choice of Martin Sheen was perfection,as was the death of Kurtz.
Finally USA helped to die people in our time and nothing changes.
I watched that happen to a water buffalo in Nepal around the Dashain holiday. WAAAY more blood in real life, but also quicker and more clean.
This scene was a real animal
that's a real water buffalo lmao
I've seen an in-law cut the neck of a chicken. She collected the blood in a rice bowl.
Yes it is real buffalo killed. This is animal cruelty and we shouldn't support such movies.
@@user-sk4wg7he3x they didn't kill the Water Buffalo for the film.
The people you see doing the ritual are actual tribe called Montagnards. The film Crew started to co-operate with Montagnards, and as a gift they killed a Waterbuffalo and shared It with film Crew. Coppola just decided to film It

To Martin Sheen, it’s an order and he executed it perfectly.

Where do you people think burgers come from
I havr been in a slaughterhouse before...no jungle dwelling tribesmen performing animal sacrifices by decapitation that I remember..
No one slowly hacks the head off a cow in a Western Slaughterhouse.
Once had a guy worked for my dad, told me when he was at pig's slaughter house killing them was one of the most scariest experiences in his life. He had to sit on the pig while ramming a metal tube into its head. They big and heavy so they struggled like a true beast.

@AlanBrando-wb3oqIt was indeed real
Tribal people don’t give a f about vegetarian opinions they need to eat
@AlanBrando-wb3oqit was a gift for god by the local tribe
Do you eat meat?
As I get older I'm less and less sure about this movie. It's visually stunning, obviously, but I really think Brando let everyone down with his physical condition and attitude. He doesn't look like a man who's tortured and living on the edge of sanity. He looks like a guy who's eating six meals a day and sleeping in satin sheets. If he'd been rail thin and then giving that speech about the "pile of little arms," it would have been so much more impressive. I never believed that this "army" was capable of anything militarily, and I never fully understood how Martin Sheen just walks in there and manages to kill him. Kurtz wanted to die I suppose, but I found this whole sequence a bit anticlimactic and nonsensical and it makes sense to me that Coppola admitted at different points that he had no ending to the movie and basically had to come up with one on the fly. Also: I never understood why Kurtz felt his own lack of morality -- i.e., his "no rules," no moral judgment approach to war -- was so superior to Western hypocrisy (see his commentary about training young men to kill but not allowing them to write epithets on their airplanes). Is he saying they SHOULD be able to write epithets and kill freely, or is he saying that nobody should be trained to kill at all? He talks about the "genius" of fighting without the constraints of a moral sense, and yet seems to hate the Americans for PRETENDING to be moral. OK. I guess I don't understand what his issue is. Is he anti-war or anti-morality? Anyway, to sum up this rant, it's a lovely-looking movie that's sort of shoe-horned in themes from Heart of Darkness that don't necessarily fit the Vietnam War all that well -- IMHO. Over-rated spectacle and not as deep as it pretends to be.
so bad ass man
I sure hope that cow is ok.
I don't think so .

I know this is the 2001 version, but still. I'm shocked at the quality of the production of this entire movie, I have to remind myself it was actually filmed in the 70s...
So... was that a real cow? I don't think so, would be way more blood I think (but I'm not a butcher).
Yep it was definitely real
It was a real cow. Filming Crew began working with local tribe, and as a form of gratitude the tribe killed a Water Buffalo and they all ate It afterwards. Coppola decided to film the killing ritual. That's the story
Yes, the Ifugao tribe sacrificed the animal. that is definitely as real as it gets.
it’s just their culture tbh
They didn´t fuck around back than. No animals were hurt during making of the film...
Does this hurt the cow?
Yes, and that's why I won't be entertained by this movie. The death of others shouldn't be part of entertainment. If it was a documentary, that would have been acceptable, but this is being produced and sold as entertainment.
If it was part of a documentary, that might be slightly problematic too. For example some vegan activists filmed a cow that was being mistreated on a farm and all they did was film it and didn't help the cow who was starving to death. They just let it starve to death slowly.
@@Animal_lives_matterthe cow's death wasn't for film purposes though, the tribals were going to kill It anyway and camera crew decided to film It for bigger effect of the scene.
@@Animal_lives_matterIt’s good for you, because Apocalypse Now isn’t about entertainment.
It was a carabao. This movie was shot in the Philippines and the end scene was part of a tribal ritual..✌️
@@Animal_lives_matter its not just for entertainment, but more about teaching the audiences about themes of morality and hypocrisy.
People are fine with killing billions of Animals every year for meat as long as its behind closed Doors, but are Angry at a movie for showing a death of a single animal (which was eaten later on on the set). Human hypocrisy at its finest.
The themes of Apocalypse Now are still relevant today
Was the killing of the animal for real?
Yes
Same with "Come and see".There it were tracer rounds and this movie is even more disturbing!
Yup
No they sewed its' head back on and it lead a long , happy and productive life .
It was filmed for the movie but was a real ritual killing performed by a southeast asian tribe if that makes you feel any better. They were going to kill it and the camera happened to be there.

what happened to brando's character? what caused it?
What happened? They pretty-well explained that in the movie. He'd seen, as anyone who was there saw, the the utter bullshit of it all, the murderous, two-faced lie of it all. He was a soldier, he was trained to lead troops, to secure victory, but was hobbled by higher command every step of the way. He saw that he was being prevented from winning by weaker men who gave him orders, set policies. watch it again, listen to the dialogue, CAPT. Willard's and the Col's most especially, and then think about it. You'll understand.

I prefer the ending in the original edition of the movie. Also, I prefer Coppola's version of 'The Heart of Darkness' to Conrad's, which I felt was a bit racist. Having spent a year in Viet Namthis film, which I've seen four times, really takes me back.
i seem to recall seeing an ending where they napalm the place and those Ankgor type heads are enshrined in a ball of fire...
No such thing as racism, there is only the human race 💪🏿
The original was hardly racist. In fact, one of the main points of the book is deconstructing racism.
One of the prevailing schools of thought at that time in Europe was that being civilized or savage was due to nothing more than your genetics. That was to say that the white man in Europe lived in civilizations because he was white, and people like Africans were savages for the same reason, because they weren't white.
We see this mentality was ingrained in many ways. When the news of the failed Franklin expedition began to reach England, including rumors and evidence of cannibalism, the Admiralty Board put in a lot of effort to cover up or deflect on these issues. They considered it slanderous to imply, let alone outright accuse. British men were gentlemen, and gentlemen don't eat each other. We see this continue even after the racial aspect of this mentality faded away with books like Lord of the Flies. Simply replace the racial aspect with the cultural aspect.
Conrad's book starts off by showing this mentality at the coast, with the civilized cities of white colonists. And as you go deeper into the country, and whites are replaced with native blacks, you see them become savage. But especially when he finds the man he's looking for at the end of his trip, you see the monster he has turned into. Conrad was calling out this dangerously incorrect mindset. Savagery was not something only "inferior" races were. The white man didn't create civilization because they were intrinsically civilized, but that the white man was civilized because he created civilization. You take him out of civilization, and he can become just as savage a person as any "inferior" person can.
In actuality, the original book is one of the best and most effective anti-racist books ever created. It should be spread around far more than it currently is.
Even if you were right and Heart of Darkness is 'a bit racist', let's keep in mind that everything was a bit racist in 1899. You don't have to like Conrad's work, and it's ok to say so, but there's absolutely no good to come of requiring historical masterworks to conform to your 2023 moral sensibilities. They can and should be understood and appreciated for their importance in their own time and place. I swear Western Civilization is a hair's breadth from going full Farenheit 451. Burn the naughty books! I know that's not what you're advocating at all, but every book burning in history began with a purity test like the one you just gave and that Conrad just failed.
