Best documentary about the making of a film ever.This is fascinating stuff.scary,funny,and always compelling,watching this you wonder how the film ever got finished.All the main actors contribute interviews for the film,(except Brando of course)and all are quite revealing.theres also contributions from George Lucas and John Milius.Some of Milius's anecdotes are highly amusing,and we get to hear excerpts from his original screenplay,a lot of which was never used,unfortunately.Some amazing footage shot by coppolla's wife,include Martin Sheen drunk and dangerous on set,Coppolla trying to get an obviously high Dennis Hopper to remember his lines,and poor Coppolla trying to shoot the ending,with an uncooperative Brando selfishly wanting to do everything his way,and get paid millions for the privilege!If you are a fan of Apocalypse Now,or even if you have an interest in cinema,this is a must see.
