Director: Eleanor Coppola, Fax Bahr, George Hickenlooper Run Time: 96 min. Format: DCP Rating: R Release Year: 1991
4K restoration
Eleanor Coppola films her husband Francis Ford Coppola’s trials as he films Apocalypse Now, capturing the real world difficulties that complicate the filmmaking process.
βIn 1976, Eleanor Coppola shot behind-the-scenes footage of Apocalypse Now on 16mm. For the first time, we decided to return to all original sources and scan elements in 4K for this new release. What everyone has seen over the last 30 years has been three to four generations removed from the source elements. Additionally, we utilized the 2019 4K restoration of Apocalypse Now for this release, incorporating those elements into the documentary. For any clips pulled from Apocalypse Now and used in the documentary, we maintained the original aspect ratio of 2.40 instead of letterboxing it in a 4×3 frame. Lastly, we remastered the soundtrack and created a new 5.1 mix. The film was restored at American Zoetrope and graded at Roundabout Entertainment in Burbank, California. The director, Fax Bahr, approved the grade.β
