NOTE
------------
VERY BAD picture quality: looks like a third generation VHS tape. There's a timecode in the bottom right corner throughout; no narration and no music; the editing is very rough and sometimes looks like dailies from the set. However, it was never officially released in any form and probably never will be.

DVD Release Date: never


Director: Francis Ford Coppola


Description
------------------
See Dennis Hopper get killed via shotgun blast!
See Martin Sheen stab a baby!
See the long lost fully uncut plantation scene and all of the footage shot with the Playboy bunnies!!
Spend more time with Kurtz and enjoy his insane Manson-esque ramblings!!

This is the incredibly rare 5 1/2 hour Apocalypse Now!! Forget about the Redux, this is the real deal taken from rare workprint of the film.

In many ways, this is almost a completely different movie; complete with new caracters, new events and new, gloomy fates for a few of the cast. For fans of this film, this 2-disc set is a revelation of new found importance and interest that only adds to the pleasure of watching Apocalypse Now in any form.

APOCALYPSE NOW WORKPRINT. Here it is! The FIVE HOUR long workprint to Coppola?s masterpiece! That's right, FIVE HOURS! So huge it takes up TWO T-160 tapes! Many never before seen scenes including Robert Duvall saving a little Cong baby, the river boat crew first rescuing and then later having sex with the USO showgirls, the once lost French compound dinner scene, Dennis Hopper being shotgunned to death, plus helicopters, helicopters and MORE helicopters! Letterboxed, timecoded throughout, this one?s so rare even WE didn't expect to find a copy! An absolute must for any collector!
