In the Vietnam War epic, Martin Sheen 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), who has barricaded himself in a remote outpost.

    Curiosity: Francis Ford Coppola has his origins in Bernalda, a small town in the south of Italy, just few kilometers where I live. not far from there was shot Mel Gibson's The Passion Of The Christ

    One of the defining films of the 70's alongside Coppola's "Godfather"

    I never did get a chance to see the redux version and would love to experience it on blu-ray. It belongs in every collector's catalog and for some reason, isn't in mine yet. Perhaps now?
