I first remember seeing this film when I was probably about 8 or 9 years old (child psychologists put the keyboard down and step back, please) and even then I remember what a gorgeous film it was, that's what I remember most about the film and that scene. Moreover, I guess what sruck me; since we are speaking about the subconscious, was the fact that something SO amoral could be so beautiful (I hope this doesn't classify me as amoral).The second thing that affirmed everything for me about this film was when a neighbor (who was in Vietnam) mentioned that he can't and won't watch the film (again) because of how close to the real thing it was.
It's interesting, to me, how individuals who have never been anywhere near a war (Francis Coppola, Stanley Kubrick) are able to make, confirmed by testimonals from people who were "there" of course, films that are so real. That to me is what makes this film great.
