Duvall had an innate sense of how to physically embody a character in terms of body language, posture and gestures.
I didn’t even notice that he didn’t duck for cover first time I saw Apocalypse Now.
If felt completely right that Kilgore wouldn’t flinch or be put out by explosions as he was war.

Robert Duvall is 95
Apart from his famous dialogue in Apocalypse Now, it was moments like this that made me realise how insane Kilgore was.
Bombs going off, everyone ducking but just a normal day for the Colonel.

Have been sidelined a bit by a head cold for the past two weeks, but it's finally lifting. Managed a light, 20-minute jog this morning and about 30 minutes of walking. It was tiring, but I'm glad I did it - I'm feeling pretty refreshed this evening.
