References Apocalypse Now (1979)

For my part, a masterpiece !

Yes, and I thought to what I wrote ! When I saw this film, it was the first time that all of the characters made me share their emotions and laughs. Amazing !

A very nice film, treated well.

I particularly love the way of filming. It's also the first time I saw such a devotion to one film. Really interesting. The audio fits perfectly with the film.

The problem, as you surely know it, is "the family". Every character is perfect in his or her role, and no one can doubt about that !

Three words : buy and see !
