Apocalypse Now (1979) Poster, Japanese, Style A. First Japanese release 1980 Artist: Haruo Takino (dates unknown) Designer: Eiko Ishioka (1938-2012) Unframed: 41 x 57 in. (104 x 145 cm) Haruo Takino is a Japanese artist, who has taken a unique approach with the artwork for this piece, as it does not feature Marlon Brando, and instead the menacing army helicopters hovering above a large swell, with someone surfing the waves. The film has many memorable lines, including Lt. Col. Kilgore's ' You can either surf, or you can fight!'. This poster does not surface very often, especially in this pristine condition. This American epic war film was directed, produced and co-written by Francis Ford Coppola, and stars Marlon Brando, Robert Duvall, Martin Sheen and Dennis Hopper The documentary, Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse, chronicles how Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now was difficult to make, owing to the extraordinary script, shooting, budget, and casting problems, and almost destroyed the life and career of Coppola. Brando arrived on the set overweight and unfamiliar with his lines. Sheen unfortunately suffered a heart attack during filming. Even though the making of this film was plagued with many problems, the finished film is considered a masterpiece.
