Special Edition Blu-ray Disc (2-Discs)

Often hailed as “one of the greatest of all films” (Chicago Sun-Times), the timeless cinematic masterpiece from Francis Ford Coppola Apocalypse Now arrives in stunning high definition for the first time when it premieres on Blu-ray Disc from StudioCanal.

Heralded by many as the film that crystallizes most perfectly the experience of the Vietnam War, Francis Ford Coppola’s hallucinatory masterpiece APOCALYPSE NOW has been painstakingly restored by his own Zoetrope studios under his close supervision.

Martin Sheen (TV’s The West Wing) stars as Army Captain Willard, a troubled man sent on a dangerous top-secret mission into Cambodia to assassinate a rogue Green Beret, Col. Kurtz (Marlon Brando, The Godfather, On the Waterfront, Last Tango in Paris), who has barricaded himself in a remote outpost. As Willard ventures deeper and deeper into the wilderness of the jungle, he embarks on a strange journey that leads him to Kurtz – but also forces him to come face to face with the terrifying vision of the heart of darkness in us all.

With an all-star critically acclaimed cast that also includes Robert Duvall (The Road, Crazy Heart, The Godfather Pt I & II), Dennis Hopper (Easy Rider, Blue Velvet), Harrison Ford (The Indiana Jones series) and Laurence Fishburne (The Matrix Trilogy), APOCALYPSE NOW so impressed the Cannes jury when shown as only a work in progress that it won the Palme D’Or that year (tied with Tin Drum). Vittorio Storaro’s stunning cinematography and masterful sound editing from the genius Walter Murch won the film deserved Oscars and were just two of many awards the film has won over the years.

This highly anticipated Blu-ray Disc premieres in 1080P High Definition Widescreen in two deluxe-edition releases: a 3-Disc Collector’s Edition and a 2-Disc Special Edition.  Also for the first time, these movies will be presented for home entertainment audiences in their original theatrical aspect ratios (2.35:1).

Both Blu-ray Disc versions contain Apocalypse Now and Apocalypse Now Redux with more than nine hours of bonus material including new interviews with on-screen and behind-the-scenes talent. 

The 3-Disc Collector’s Edition will include everything from the 2-Disc Edition along with the acclaimed making-of feature documentary by Eleanor Coppola Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker’s Apocalypse – packaged with the original film for the first time – as well as even more brand new bonus features like the John Milius Script Excerpt with Francis Ford Coppola Notes, a Storyboard Gallery with more than 200 drawings, a Photo Gallery, including images from photographer Mary Ellen Mark, A Marketing Archive including: poster gallery, lobby cards, and theatrical trailers.

In addition, this version features a 24-pages collectible printed booklet created for true Apocalypse Now fans. Inside, you’ll find an introductory letter written by Coppola with personal accounts about the making of the film. You’ll also find extracts of the original screenplay with handwritten notes by the legendary director and original drawings of the film’s storyboard. Go behind-the-scenes of the film as you look through never-seen-before photos and memos sent to the cast and crew during shooting.
All of this and more is in this Collector’s Edition booklet!
The Collector’s edition also features the 1979 original Theatrical Program (16-pages printed): “I didn’t want to put credits or a main title on the film because I wanted to give it a theatrical-like special presentation. My idea was to give out these programs that contained a full list of the actors and crew, and information about the film. We did this at the first theaters that showed the film in 70mm.”—Francis Ford Coppola. Moreover, this edition contains 5 Exclusive postcards including behind-the-scenes photos taken by famed American photographer, Mary Ellen Mark.

The Collector’s Edition will be packaged in a rigid slipcase. The artwork focuses one of the most known theatrical posters using a new red tint (given by Francis Ford Coppola himself),
