rent Eleanor Coppola's "Hearts of Darkness"

208.253.11.91

as much as I love "Applesauce Now", this documentary is by far the best filmaking I've ever seen. It's the real deal. To see "Apocalpyse" without seeing the making of it, is like trying to visualize a donut without the hole.

as a side note: when I went to see Applesauce in the Warner theater in downtown Pittsburgh (huge old theater with two balconys--the only way to see film), the only seats left were right in the front row (I guess there were 3000 people there that night). Directly behind me were 8 GI's, dressed in their jungle suits. The ad-libs they had more than made up for the sore kneck I had from looking straight-up at a 40 foot tall screen for 153 minuites.

Years later I met a guy who designs toys for Disney (he also did the Transformers line). We were both into hang gliding big time, and became fast friends. I asked him about his life once. Of all the things he told me, the least interesting was the two tours he did as a gunner on one of those river boats you see in the movie. Some people live--everyone else is alseep.
