I think this was the most haunting scene in the film and really showed the clash between human ideals and human nature

These videos are O-U-T-S-T-A-N-D-I-N-G. Apocalypse Now has been my #1 favorite movie since I first saw it in Westwood in 1979.

I appreciate that you pointed out the effect the Typhoon brought to the people of the Philippines as well

15:00 i think that its okay to feel close to the men, having followed them so intimately up river, and then have that thrown into question, when they take advantage of the women: its the amoral fog of war -- has any surviving participant ever come back entirely whole? call me a cynic, but i find that one of the more grounded sequences. Love your work CinemaTyler.

I thought the point of the girl being ok with being pimped out was to show that it had happened to her so many times that she's become desensitized to it. BTW. I can't stress how much I love your work. I thought that your work on Kubrick films was amazing and probably the best documentaries on him out there, but I don't know if your Apocalypse Now series isn't even better!

It’s easy to say that from the comfort of your living room, but be real- no you wouldn’t.

This is an incredible piece of work. Every entry leading up to this one has been nothing less than stellar, but this one actually manages to level up and go to another plateau. The brilliant middle section laying out the whole typhoon disaster is like a missing cut scene straight out of Hearts Of Darkness.Your content has went into another dimension. It really has hit a quality benchmark on par with the Coppola doc. This was very rewarding, revieting and manages to do something no other materials or medium previously has been able to convay and that is the absolute sh*t show that was that typhoon production hell shut down. Even in Hearts of Darkness it's treated as a footnote. This is the first time I've really felt it, the misery, the conditions, the hopelessness, the, well, yes, the horror. Again, this is so informative and immersive that just that portion of the vid could be spliced into Hearts doc seamlessly, it's that good. Close second: that Rachel Welch joke is epic. EPIC. That antidote is so freakin great, you could forget the rest of the series and just publish the joke. This entry has everything. Thank you genius sir.

We're finally getting to Do Lung. I can't wait. That was single greatest scene in all of cinematography.

This just shows how hard it is to make a movie. It really is. All the things that can go wrong. Coppola went through a living Hell on earth to make this movie. More than anyone should ever go through. Also, I know one of those actresses that played a Playboy bunny that was in the movie. Colleen Camp. She was the one dressed like a squaw (Indian). She tells some great stories nowadays about her experience on that movie. A very wild ride!

A truly eerie part of the movie, right there with the Laos border bridge scene. Love how this movie makes your skin crawl.

15:52 - reminded me when I had a Tarot card reading from a similar type girl - of course wanted to sleep with her which she ignored. She said a specific card in the pattern meant “the current situation” and put down “The Lovers” - embarrassed, she reshuffled and again the card that came up was “The Lovers”.

Great stuff again on my favorite movie! I think it would be interesting to compare the making of Apocalypse Now with Werner Herzog's making of Fitzcarraldo. Both films have very good documentaries about how each one was made. Both were filmed in the jungle. Both had filmed large chunks of their film and had to scrap everything they shot and re-shoot because they had to replace their lead actors. Herzog filmed in the Brazilian rain forest and faced equally difficult conditions. Both directors suffered greatly in making their films. Both filmed seemingly impossible scenes, Coppola with the helicopter scene and Herzog moving a huge steamship up a large hill thru the jungle by hand and one single bulldozer. Both had to deal with the very real war and violence. Both films were made around the same time. For those not familiar with the making of Fitzcarraldo check out the film Burden of Dreams. It's almost better than the finished film! I hope someone does a comparison piece sometime.

This is a great addition to the lore. The cut bunny scene added nothing to the story, was creepy, and seriously diminished the viewers empathy for the crew. His use of river water after a typhoon was stupid or criminal. Coppola seems to have had no concern for the welfare of others. Genius aside, it is disconcerting.

well the thing is it doesnt have to be a reference to the odyssey, or it can, its subjective, I liked this part because it added to the journey in the boat, from the tiger and the hunters/temples and all, it wasnt just the plot at that point.

When the film opened I saw it at the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood that featured as much of a surround sound system that they had the technolopgy in 1979. The film was overpowering and everyone left the cinema silently, all of us trying to absorb as much as possible. My favorite cut however is Redux, with the planation scene that really puts the icing on the cake for me.

First, excellent documentary series. Second, when I finally got to see the "Med Evac" scene(s), it had been many years since I first watched Apocalypse Now. I was a bookish precocious child and had read Joseph Conrads "Heart of Darkness" when I was in middle school (some 40 years ago). Thus, I found the movie transcendent, a brilliant adaption of the book. However, when decades later I saw the Med Evac scene, I found it didn't relate to my understanding of the book. I also found it profoundly darker than the rest of it, oddly out of place. I tried to apply my usual filters given that humans like original versions and once we have seen one version for decades, we are less likely to view any changes as positive. Still, I'm glad they didn't use it.

I would add that the scene with the French plantation owner did seem to fit and did add considerable context to the film. I recognize that it's likely both scenes were originally created to establish and then reinforce the surreal nature of the war, and Williard's and the boat crew's journey. As they advance up the river, things get stranger and stranger. After all the weirdness, death and tribulations, sitting down to a formal dinner is incredibly surreal. It's also historically accurate as I would learn in college that this mess used to be a French mess, an ugly artifact of French Colonialism. In the end, this movie is a masterpiece, one unlikely to be seen again as movies get dumbed down, flattened, simplified. .

I will always prefer the theatrical release of Apocalypse Now over the Redux or Final Cut versions. All the extra scenes add nothing of importance to the overall story. The French plantation and the stranded Playboy bunnies sequences stop the story dead. The extended scene where Willard steals Kilgore 's prized surf board is tonally jarring and just doesn't mesh with the rest of his character. It's really rather silly. The only scenes I was surprised to see removed from the Final Cut were those of Brando. But Coppola keeps the utterly dull French plantation sequence. I'm glad these scenes are available, but not when they are reinstated into the film. The film was perfect in its original run time and required no further embellishments.

I think Coppola ultimately made the right decision. Don't get me wrong, I love Redux but this scene seems to just weigh it down, even without burning any goodwill earned by the PBR crew. I'd honestly have been more interested to see a tight, lean, 90-100 minute Coppola "Essential Cut". If done right, I think it could have the feel of a one on one duel in the jungle, surrounded by chaos. Nothing superfluous to the "mission".
