Apocalypse Now (1979)

This week, BK & Jack head up the river, deep into the heart of darkness as they take an incisive look at 1979's Apocalypse Now, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, co-written by Coppola & John Milius. Our intrepid hosts take on the film's relentless descent into madness as Capt. Willard & his PT Crew allies track down a rouge American colonel during the Vietnam War, the sheer insanity of a creative process that spiraled out of control in pursuit of cinematic perfection, the massive contributions of production designer Dean Tavoularis & cinematographer Vitorrio Storaro, & much, much more. A thought-provoking film deserves an equally deep conversation; Revenge of the Film Nerds is here to deliver! Enjoy the show!
