Post Body
Heart of Darkness, Joseph Conrad's novella, inspired a great discussion last week (comments still welcome!). It also inspired a movie: Apocalypse Now by the great Francis Ford Coppola. Apocalypse Now takes the story and sets it in the Vietnam War. The movie is as dark and disturbing as the book and hopefully as thought-provoking.
We'll have the movie discussion on:
- February 25
I'll be watching the original version, which I found on DVD at my library. Apocalypse Now Redux, an extended director's cut is available for free in the United States if you have Amazon Prime. The latest release is Apocalypse Now: Final Cut from 2019. Watch any version you can get hold of.
Will you join us?
