Apocalypse Now (1979), IMDb

Everyone gets everything he wants. I wanted a mission, and for my sins, they gave me one.
Captain Benjamin Willard, Apocalypse Now

Horror has a face, and you must make a friend of horror. Horror and moral terror are your friends. If they are not, then they are enemies to be feared.
Kurtz, Apocalypse Now

Well, you see Willard, in this war, things get confused out there: power, ideals, the old morality, practical military necessity. But out there with these natives, it must be a temptation to be god, because there's a conflict in every human heart, between the rational and the irrational, between good and evil, and good does not always triumph. Sometimes, the dark side overcomes what Lincoln called the better angels of our nature. Every man has got a breaking point. You and I have one. Walter Kurtz has reached his, and very obviously, he has gone insane.
Lieutenant General Corman, Apocalypse Now

Wow, John, you really pick the tough ones to portray...and once again you've succeeded in capturing the mood, message, and in this case, the mayhem...'the horror', the death, the descent of fear and psychotic influences can quickly be grasped in this gritty abstract image and your chosen passages further enhance this impression...excellent entry for this week...thank you!

This image certainly gives the notion of disaster very well. Great idea and presentation John.

Have never seen a disaster that beautiful, John. (😄)
Perfect visualization, well chosen quotes, and music link for this SNATM-theme (🎥). Very well done again!

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

It looks like a Tsunami Strat. I figured you would get around to using this movie, what with the artistic skills you possess. You have done a magnificent job.
I'm reminded of a scene in the movie. I love the smell of napalm in the morning.
Excellent presentation and perfect for SNATM.👍👍

I notice there's a lot of orange in here... hmmmm... now who does that bring to my mind? Orange. Apocalypse. Politics, maybe? A tower shape? Hmmmm...
