With Francis Ford Coppola’s MEGALOPOLIS poised to offer the final word on a long and fascinating career, we’re flashing back to the film that nearly broke him… and that will live forever as one of the foremost artistic works to tackle the war in Vietnam. (Presented in its restored-from-negative, Coppola-approved 2019 “Final Cut” edition.)

In Vietnam in 1970, Captain Willard (Martin Sheen) takes a perilous and increasingly hallucinatory journey upriver to find and terminate Colonel Kurtz (Marlon Brando), a once-promising officer who has reportedly gone completely mad. In the company of a Navy patrol boat filled with street-smart kids, a surfing-obsessed Air Cavalry officer (Robert Duvall), and a crazed freelance photographer (Dennis Hopper), Willard travels further and further into the heart of darkness.
