| | Apocalypse Now ReduxSynopsis: With close to one hour of never-before-seen footage, APOCALYPSE NOW REDUX is the restored and updated version of the Coppola Vietnam epic as it was meant to be seen. Loosely based on the novel “Heart of Darkness� by Joseph Conrad, the movie tells the story of Captain Willard (Martin Sheen), a special forces captain sent into Cambodia to assassinate an errant American Ccolonel (Marlon Brando). The deranged colonel murders hundreds of innocent people and constructs a strange kingdom for himself deep in the jungle, where he is deified by his followers. The film won Best Cinematography and Best Sound with 6 other nominations (including Best Picture and Best Director) in 1979 Oscars？. "Grows richer and stranger with each viewing, and the restoration of scenes left in the cutting room two decades ago has only added to its sublimity."—A.O. Scott, NEW YORK TIMES. Casts: Marlon Brando, Robert Duvall, Martin Sheen, Dennis Hopper, Laurence Fishburne Duration : 180 minutes
