In Hearts of Darkness the angst, agony and ecstasy of Francis Ford Coppola’s Apocalypse Now receives a masterful dissection. That it doesn’t descend into parody for one minute is an accomplishment of Herculean proportions. Coppola had originally intended upon shooting Apocalypse with George Lucas during the Vietnam Conflict. Screen writer John Milius wanted to stage the thing in Vietnam. Studios wouldn’t go near it for obvious reasons, and Coppola had to settle for making The Godfather I and II. By 1976 he had parlayed that success into American Zoetrope and developed enough clout to make the epic. --Bryan Newbury for Documentary Films .Net http://www.documentaryfilms.net/index.php/hearts-of-darkness/
