I know the film took 3 year in the making, and went way over budget.
Francis, put a lot of his own money into it.
What about the song in that scene you mentioned

I can't recall a song being played in that scene, Mr. A. All I can remember is the sounds of chopper blades and the ceiling fan going. I also recall from Heart of Darkness that Sheen had a heart attack during the filming, but can't say at what point. I think they had to use doubles until he came out of the hospital.

Who said in the film "I love the smell of napalm in the morning"?
I seem to recall that song being played twice in the film, Mr. A. I might be wrong though. It's been at least 15 years since I saw it but I trust you on this.
It was Robert Duvall who delivered the classic line.

I've nothing against the Gay/Bi community but give me John Wayne any day.
Completely agree pilot…
however, picture this… sless and MrA go on a fishing trip together and one of them forgets to bring his tent so they have to both sleep in one tent…
I have no point mind, I just wanted you to picture it.. lol …………
