This documentary is almost as good as the film it is about. A very informative documentary about the production of Apocalypse Now. If you never watched Apocalypse Now, be sure to watch it before you watch this documentary.

Engrossing and hilarious by turns, this is the story of a film-maker who deliberately places himself on the edge of a logistical precipice, where the slightest difficulty might spell disaster.
