Apocalypse Now is a great film centered around cinematography. Everything from the framing to color stood out and helped give the film life in it's own disturbing way. Primarily the framing and movement made this film for me so that's what I'm going to spend my time talking about.
The framing of this film was very different from that of The Diving Bell and the Butterfly because it was mostly from a step back so that the viewer could get the big picture of what was going on in the environment around the characters. There always seemed to be something in the framing that through you off to one side or the other, whether it was an explosion or just another character on the screen.
The way that movement was used in this film definitely paralleled the mood of the situation that was being shot. When there was an eerie feel to what was happening, the shot moved really slow and deliberately, but when there was action or something unpredictable happening the shot was very fast and erratic. Just from the speed of the movement, you feel more "in" the film instead of just a casual viewer in a theater.
