Although Coppola uses different characters‚ scenes and themes‚ both the film and the novella follow the same storyline. In his film‚ Coppola creates an allegory between the British imperial behaviour in Africa and the American army behaviour in Vietnam.

After reading Francis Parkman’s article‚ "Women Are Unfit to Vote"‚ I found myself both offended and annoyed. His arguments were not only shaky‚ but they were also illogical.
