Two scenes from Francis Ford Coppola’s APOCALYPSE NOW.

From the same movie. Paul Goldfinger still.

 

 

Silver Fox is the winner.  We will send him the prize information.

This film won the Best Picture Academy Award 1979  along with 7 other Oscars.  It is based on Joseph Conrad’s book  The Heart of Darkness. Coppola had no script; just a copy of Conrad’s amazing book. It takes place during the Viet Nam War.

In the scene on top, the Americans, on a boat mission up river,  get to stop at an old French plantation where a French family still resides and where Captain Willard gets some satisfaction.

Below that is the “hell-on-earth” command of Col. Kurtz–played by Marlon Brando. It is in Cambodia and is the weirdest place you have ever seen.

And then we have a trailer from the movie.

SAMUEL BARBER     Adagio for Strings.   This is movie music but NOT from the movie above.
