Redux with the particularly extraneous stuff cut out, plus 4K remastering

It's not the one with the added bullshit?

Or will that be the Directors Cut version?

The only complain I had with redux is that the added shit fucks with the pacing of the film, so I wouldn't ever recommend that as someone's initial viewing. Personally I love it.

The shit like trading fuel with the playgirls got cut for example. 3 hours 3 minutes is still damn long but the episodic structure of the film helps it be digestible.

The cinematography and performances are unbelievable, and imo the movie has so much to say not just about the experience and morals of Vietnam but the cost of war to the human and to the soul. Coppola saying "my film IS Vietnam" is one of the most pretentious things I've ever heard but I also kind of believe him

I've barely considered it to be a Vietnam movie despite it being one of my favorites. A lot of Vietnam vets apparently hate the movie because it's pretty bonkers and most of it doesn't resemble anything that happened in the war.

His quote doesn't really relate to literal depiction of the American forces or the war, but to the broader absurdity and self-contradictions of the conflict, as well as the production of the film itself.

Is this movie worth watching for people who didn't like The Godfather and thought it was really boring?

Once worked with a Nam vet and he said that the movie had more action than he seen in the 18 months he was there.

I wasn't a fan of The Godfather but absolutely loved Apocalypse Now. Despite sharing the same director, it's a totally different style of film.

I saw that version in a theater right before Covid. I could do with never seeing the scenes with the French people ever again tbh. Just unnecessary imo

I think it's okay except for the woman. The insertion of a love fling just feels totally out of place in the movie. The dinner conversation about their pride for the land at least says something about America's presence in Vietnam

That was his way saying that he wasn't in the Army anymore.
