    The magic and madness of making 'Apocalypse Now' : This one's a must watch for those who enjoyed Coppola's 1979 classic. The part that really struck me was when we see how Coppola and Sheen improvise the opening scene - the one where Sheen's character punches the mirror. Sheen's so inebriated that he doesn't realize how close he is to the mirror and ends up badly hurting his hand.
    Mostly comprised of footage from Coppola's wife Eleanor, this documentary chronicles the extraordinary casting, shooting and budget problems that he had to overcome to give us this great classic.

    A documentary that shows how Francis Ford Coppola's "Apocalypse Now" was created. It details the production problems and how it almost killed Francis Ford Coppola. Its amazing Apocalypse Now ever made it to post-production. You will not be disappointed with this.

    It's funny to see that Martin Sheen was drunk, most of the cast members were blitzed out of their skulls and Marlon Brando was just insane during the making of it all. And also Francis Ford-Coppola's genuine threats of suicide.

    The greatest behind the scenes look at the process of creation. I can watch it over and over. Simply brilliant. Coppola is my Hero.

    Really fascinating documentary about a movie I still have no interest in seeing. I know, just call me a stupid person, but it just looks so evil and I don't want to go there.
