Francis Ford Coppola, the making of apocalypse now. A raw and fascinating documentary, one of the best I’ve ever seen.
200+ days of shooting
By the end of this documentary from everything Coppola has said as he is being recorded by his wife secretly for a documentary on the making of the movie
You are in all that the movie was completed and as coherent and beautiful as it is
This is a testament to Francis Ford Coppola
We must honor the greats.
This documentary is perfect. Perfection.
