Apocalypse Now (1979) Original Folded Italian Movie Poster 55x40

Apocalypse Now is a 1979 war drama directed by Francis Ford Coppola, loosely based on Joseph Conrad’s novella Heart of Darkness. Set during the Vietnam War, the film follows Captain Benjamin Willard, a weary and detached soldier sent on a secret mission to assassinate Colonel Kurtz, a rogue officer who has gone insane and established a cult-like following deep in the Cambodian jungle. As Willard travels upriver with a small patrol boat crew, he encounters surreal, violent, and often hallucinatory episodes that reflect the madness and moral collapse of war. Visually stunning and emotionally intense, the film explores the psychological toll of conflict and the thin line between civilization and chaos.
