Trivia:
Most of the dialogue was improvised by the cast, who were given extraordinary creative control over their own characters, even drawing straws to determine which of their characters would die in the story. Director Linda Yellen said, "I never believed this would be accepted commercially." Co-star Jill Eikenberry said filming was like a "week-long therapy session." more

Linda Yellen could NOT do what Francis Ford Coppola did with Apocalypse Now, 1 March 1999
1/10
Author: chvideo from California, United States

Coppola explains that towards the end of the production of Apocalypse Now he was forced to improvise many of his shots, and the end product shows his success. However, Linda Yellen fails to make this movie work. The lack of close-ups makes this movie drag on and on and her shot improvisation is painfully obvious. My final thought - spend the money for the steadycam!!
