Apocaypse Now
I watched the movie today, since I wasn't there Saturday. I thought it was interesting how one man said, to the Captian while eating Roast Beef,that good does not always triumph over evil. If you think about it, its really sad.Knowing that there is evil in the world,but there is also a balance of good which gives me hope. That statement that he said just made me ponder about today's standards. I also think, that Kurtz started to become crazy over the years; he became like a savage just as the people who worshiped him in the movie. In the movie, I didn't mention ivory though...did it?

I don't agree with you that kurtz started to go crazy over the years and he became a savage as the to people who worshipped him. I believed that kurtz was a very intellengent man, which held a position of authority and found that the government he worked for was not being successful in their methods they used in running the war. He looked for ways to be placed in a command that was away from the politics and corruption, but his commanders knew of his potential and wanted to keep him in the mix of the politics and corruption. Kurtz could not find a successful way out, so he went with the natives to make it difficult when the government came to eliminate him for what they saw as a betrayal.
