Director Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now celebrates its 40th anniversary, with a screening of a new, never-before-seen and restored version of the film, remastered from the original negative in 4K.
The film follows Army Captain Willard (Martin Sheen), a man sent on a dangerous and mesmerising odyssey into Cambodia to assassinate a renegade American colonel named Kurtz (Marlon Brando), who has succumbed to the horrors of war and barricaded himself in a remote outpost.
A classic and compelling Vietnam War epic, Apocalypse Now is a haunting journey into madness that has fascinated generations of movie lovers.
The one-night-only screenings include a pre-recorded Q&A, where Francis Ford Coppola and acclaimed filmmaker Steven Soderbergh (Solaris, Waking Life, Haywire) discuss the huge undertaking of restoring Apocalypse Now and why the time was right for Coppola to do this now, forty years after the original version.
