  Hearts of Darkness
Conceived as an action-adventure, 'Apocalypse Now' was based upon the novel 'Heart of Darkness' by Joseph Conrad, changing the setting from 19th century Africa to Vietnam in the late 1960’s.
But what ‘Hearts of Darkness’ reveals which ‘Apocalypse Now’ cannot is that much of the vortex of adversity through which the crew pass is due almost entirely to Coppola himself.
Neither filmmaker was there when Eleanor shot her footage of the production and so they have 'given' footage for this part of the documentary.

  The DVD Journal: Apocalypse Now Redux   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Apocalypse Now Redux, Francis Ford Coppola's re-fashioning of his 1979 Vietnam war story masterpiece, is on DVD after a brief 2001 theatrical run, and the film is just as good as it was on the screen.
Apocalypse Now has already been reviewed by The DVD Journal, and there is no need to supersede Greg Dorr's excellent summary of the film's virtues and vices.
Apocalypse Now Redux, like its predecessor, is about a soldier going up-river to look for a man. As he travels, the soldier encounters people and places that take him on a trip backwards into the past, a journey that exists parallel with his voyage north and forward.

 APOCALYPSE pRODUCTION cREW - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
aPOCALYPSE pRODUCTION cREW (aPC) was a major MP3 warez organization founded by two individuals known under the pseudonyms acid^rain and Viper in May of 1997.
aPC operated well into the mid 2000s and was subject to raid during Operation Fastlink — a coordination of four separate simultaneous undercover investigations by the FBI, the FBI Cyber Division, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Computer Crimes and Intellectual Property Section (CCIPS) of the Criminal Division and Interpol.
Shumaker was previously a leader of aPC, but at the time of the raid, he had retired his role.

 APOCALYPSE NOW: 25TH ANNIVERSARY RETROSPECTIVE REVIEW
APOCALYPSE NOW was originally going to be shot on a small budget with minimal production crew over a short span of 6 weeks.
But in the case of APOCALYPSE NOW, as soon as the lights faded in the theatre and the desolate shot of the Vietnam jungle came up with The Doors’ THE END playing in the background, you just knew that you were seeing something avant-garde and special.
APOCALYPSE NOW is a beautiful and abstract film and represents Coppola’s finest hour, and considering what he went through to get this film finished, you sort of feel him through every pore the film.

 REELINSIDER.COM - APOCALYPSE NOW (1979)
Apocalypse Now's production history was similarly troubled by many of the very same furies and acting like a close artistic metaphor.
Instead I believe Apocalypse Now is that kind of movie which is viewable in changing circumstances as a Vietnam drama, an action film, a spectacle of filmmaking excess, a fantastic aesthetic experience and as a literary metaphor for journeying down the belly of madness.
I recommend Apocalypse Now to anyone with an interest in cinema as an art form and who would be open to the treasures of Hollywood auteur filmmaking.

 Apocalypse Now Redux
The film, even the '79 version, is made up of a series of interludes involving Willard and the crew of the Navy motor patrol boat assigned to his secret mission, the kind of heavily-armed, plastic-bottomed boat that prowled the rivers in search of Charlie on Vietnam's massive Mekong Delta.
Still, seeing "Apocalypse" in any form again on the big screen in a new Technicolor print is a treat, although the print I saw suffered from more blips and scratches than I would have expected.
Mostly what "Apocalypse Now Redux" points out is how much Coppola was indebted to his editor (Murch began with 1.25 million feet of film!) and brilliant cinematographer Vittorio Storaro.

 Apocalypse Now and then   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Its brilliance comes from an icy fidelity to its source, Joseph Conrad's 1902 novella, "Heart of Darkness." It is simply film's best-ever evocation of Conrad, and a shatteringly perfect update of his vision of the exploitative colonial white man drowning in an alien jungle he can't understand.
A whole new scene with Kurtz (Marlon Brando), the special forces colonel whose death is the object of Willard's journey into Vietnam's heart of darkness, in which he gives a monologue that more fully explains his bizarre, renegade defection from the war and the world.
New footage at the beginning of the journey upriver that builds the characters of the crew members (including then-14-year-old Laurence Fishburne) and culminates with a conspiracy to steal the surfboard of the chest-pounding Col. Kilgore (Robert Duvall).

 The Mediadrome - Film - Reviews: Apocalypse Now Redux
I was going to see a new, longer version of "Apocalypse Now," Francis Ford Coppola's masterpiece and what is undoubtedly one of the greatest, most intensely provocative, mesmerizing, and haunting movies ever made.
It's no secret that "Apocalypse Now" was plagued by production problems unlike any a director had ever seen (or would see again until James Cameron's "Titanic" in 1997).
The patriarch of the compound (Christian Marquand) invites the crew to dine with them, but he soon ends up lecturing them for fighting "for the biggest nothing in history." It's a powerful scene that gives the film tremendous political depth, and it's easy to see why Coppola left it out of the original release.

 DVDFILE.COM: Production A To Z - Apocalypse Pow
The new version, called Apocalypse Now Redux, was edited and mixed by Walter Murch, who has worked with Coppola on many projects in a variety of capacities.
For the original Apocalypse, Murch was one of four editors on the film, the lead re-recording mixer, and sound designer.
When Apocalypse Now was made in the late seventies, it was considered financially risky to release a film over two and a half hours long.

 FILM REVIEW: Apocalypse Wow -- The Film, Now Improved, That Changed Vlad’s Life
Now, Coppola had returned to his film, adding 49 minutes of footage and remixing the sound, releasing the result as Apocalypse Now Redux and giving us the priceless opportunity to see it the way it was always meant to be seen: on a giant screen, in surround sound, with images’ hallucinatory beauty cleaned and restored.
While the original Apocalypse was one for the ages, truly one of the dozen best films ever made, Redux, for the reason I’ll mention shortly, is merely a masterpiece.
After all, the main thing Redux provides is a chance to see Apocalypse Now on a big screen, where it goes not as much for the brain or even for the heart as for the jugular.

The level of fine-tuning that the crew was making throughout the eight-month mix period having to step back and update complex premixes and, especially, effects combines with additional elements, for example would have been nerve-wracking at best without automation.
Apocalypse Now was as good a candidate as any, not only because of its classic status, but also because many film buffs have long had bootleg copies of an early five-hour rough cut.
After much head-scratching and investigation, the crew realized that there wasn't much to be done about this; it was yet another example of why the film sound community has welcomed the discrete 5.1 digital formats.

 Apocalypse Now Redux (2001). Movie reviews by Dr. Edwin Jahiel.
In 1979 his reasoning was that since in those days very long movies were rare, and "Apocalypse" as then edited already ran two and a half hours, a film of almost three and half hours, and one that was not an orthodox war movie, would have been rejected both by festivals and the public.
Coppola's presentation was rich with explanations, mostly about the way the 1979 version had been edited, about the richness of the footage that had been shelved, the genesis of the new version, various technical aspects, plus anecdotes about his actors, especially Marlon Brando.
The film that enriched the common persons' vocabulary with expressions ("terminate with extreme prejudice"), quotations ("I love the smell of napalm in the morning"), with a bit of Wagner ("the Ride of the Walkyries"), with Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" which is at the heart of the movie.

 Apocalypse Now from The Hollywood Edge: THE AMERICAN ZOETROPE SOUND EFFECTS COLLECTION
There is no question that Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now (1979) ranks among the top films of all time in terms of its sonic impact and creative use of audio elements.
Creating the sounds for Apocalypse wasn't easy, given the conditions and length of the production schedule-month after month on location, with cast and crew enduring the very real hardships of the Philippine jungle exteriors.
Of course, "Apocalypse Now" is intended as a collection of war sounds, and it certainly does not disappoint in this regard.

Many years ago, "Saturday Night Live" had a fun sketch where a man was sent by a major movie studio to the Philippines to find a renegade director who was filming a Vietnam War movie there, but had reportedly gotten out of control and was way over budget and schedule.
Based on the 1902 novel, "Heart of Darkness" by Joseph Conrad, Coppola's film hit the big screen in 1979 after three tumultuous years of production - featuring heart attacks, hurricanes and drugs - and was unlike any war film the public had seen up to that point.

Murch also reinstated a scene early in the film in which the crew members are more fully introduced to their new passenger, Captain Willard (Martin Sheen).
