In Vietnam in 1970, Captain Willard (Martin Sheen) takes a perilous and increasingly hallucinatory journey upriver to find and terminate Colonel Kurtz (Marlon Brando), a once-promising officer who has reportedly gone completely mad. In the company of a Navy patrol boat filled with street-smart kids, a surfing-obsessed Air Cavalry officer (Robert Duvall), and a crazed freelance photographer (Dennis Hopper), Willard travels further and further into the heart of darkness.
Apocalypse Now - Final Cut is the best looking of all versions and the one that Coppola himself is most proud of. Father to Sofia and uncle to Nicolas Cage, this film is the ultimate long film to watch in this year of long films!
Once you've enjoyed the film, marvel at the madness and mayhem behind the scenes shooting the movie - we're showing the renowned documentary of the making of Apocalypse Now, Hearts of Darkness on Sunday 28 April, 11am. Book now for the doc!
