Went to see the new restoration of APOCALYPSE NOW at the cinema last night. Its looked and sounded out-of-this-world! It was fantastic to get the chance to see it on the big screen. Coppola's own American Zoetrope studio did the digital remastering and really did the best possible job.
The film itself is beyond compare as far as war films go if you ask me... its a stunningly realised film, the action and set pieces are incredible to watch. Robert Duvall and Martin Sheen are show stealers but Brando's presence towards the end of the film is incredible. The atmosphere created from the haunting music and beautiful but alien locations really make it a special film.
