Apocalypse Now

“The horror…. the horror….”

Since its release in 1979, Francis Ford Coppola’s astounding APOCALYPSE NOW remains one of the most important and influential war films ever made. Set during the Vietnam war, APOCALYPSE NOW is loosely adapted from Joseph Conrad’s seminal novella ‘Heart of Darkness.’ Coppola’s masterpiece walks the line between light and dark, with some of the most sweeping flourishes of operatic visuals to illustrate the horrors of war ever put to celluloid. Widely acclaimed upon rlease, the film won the Palme d’Or at Cannes and was nominated for muliple Oscars and won awards for Best Cinematography and Best Sound and features iconic performances from Martin Sheen, Marlon Brando, Robert Duvall, and Laurence Fishburne
