I believe they used that certain incident in the film.
yowza!!....is that a possible explanation for the bizzaro quality of that movie?
it's been years since I have seen it..but, I was not a fan.

loved Platoon though.

thought the way he chose to portray Jim Morrison in the "Doors" was ridiculous. (although I do think V.Kilmer did a good job)
Stone's explanation was that..."it was my Jim Morrison...the way I thought of him"

anyway, I am just waiting to wake up sometime next week and see CNN reporting ..."Filmaker Oilver Stone kidnapped by FARC"
