45th Anniversary, 4K Restoration!
Celebrate the 45th Anniversary of Academy Award-winning director Francis Ford Coppola’s visionary Vietnam War epic, fully restored from the original 1979 film.
The screenplay, co-written by Coppola, John Milius, and Michael Herr, is loosely inspired by the 1899 novella Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad, with the setting changed from late 19th-century Congo to the Vietnam War. The film follows a river journey from South Vietnam into Cambodia undertaken by Captain Willard (Martin Sheen), who is on a secret mission to assassinate Colonel Kurtz (Marlon Brando), a renegade Special Forces officer who is accused of murder and presumed insane. The ensemble cast also features Robert Duvall, Frederic Forrest, Albert Hall, Sam Bottoms, Laurence Fishburne, Dennis Hopper, and Harrison Ford. (R, 1979/ 2019, The Final Cut is 3h 3m)
Apocalypse Now is today considered one of the greatest films ever made; it ranked 14th and 19th in Sight & Sound’s greatest films poll in 2012 and 2022 respectively. Film critic Kyle Smith dubbed it “the greatest war movie ever made,” while The Guardian called it “the best action and war film of all time.” In 2000, the film was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry by the U.S. Library of Congress as “culturally, historically or aesthetically significant.”
