The quintessential Coppola flick

Rating: 10/10 (6 January 2019)

A masterpiece of American cinema that could only be shot in the 70's during the height of New Hollywood. Coppola went to the Philippines to shoot a movie with a partial script that would shape not just modern cinema but the lives of all involved in the production which became so infamous that it spawned its own equally compelling documentary. The result of those efforts is one of the best movies of all time, beloved by millions and studied by film scholars all around the world. A must watch for every movie fan out there.
