Apocalypse Now is a 1979 American film directed by Francis Ford Coppola from a script by John Milius (rewritten by Coppola) which was inspired by Joseph Conrad's classic novella Heart of Darkness. Set during the Vietnam War, the film tells the story of a taciturn American soldier who is sent to "terminate with extreme prejudice" the command of a rogue United States Army Special Forces colonel. The narrative of his journey and its culmination are studded with events which, while bizarre, are based on real Vietnam stories. The soldier's journey becomes increasingly nonlinear and hallucinatory. Coppola's agenda clearly involves larger themes; the film's subtext concerns a journey into the darkness of the human psyche.\n\nThe film features performances by Martin Sheen as Captain Benjamin L. Willard (Marlow in Conrad's novel), Marlon Brando as Colonel Walter E. Kurtz, Dennis Hopper as a fast-talking hallucinogen-using photojournalist, and Robert Duvall in an Oscar-nominated turn as the borderline-psychotic Lt. Colonel Kilgore. Several other actors who were (or later became) prominent stars had minor or supporting roles in the movie including Harrison Ford, R. Lee Ermey and Laurence Fishburne (who, only fourteen years old when shooting began in March 1976, was credited as 'Larry Fishburne').\n\nThe movie poster art for Apocalypse Now is one of the more famous paintings by Bob Peak, who is considered an influential artist in the world of film when it comes to movie posters.

I wanna know where in the Bible it says in the apocolyptic battle I will have to choose between beavis christ or jim darwin.  If that's what it's coming down to, then I think I'd like to get out now while I still can.

By narrowing down what you want to talk about. There was a lot that happened in the 19th century, and a lot's going on right now. What in particular would you like to compare? Politics, business, fashion, science, religion? Just pick one of them, and be specific. Otherwise, you'll write a book!

I can't find what you are looking for - it appears your book is likely out of print. However, there is a new novel baed during the 1906 earthquake called 1906: A Novel by James Dalessandro that was just published. I hope that helps.\n\nGood luck!
