Francis Ford Coppola
Title sequences and typography from all feature films directed by Francis Ford Coppola available on Blu-ray (16/24).
Not included: Apocalypse Now (1979).
The original theatrical version of the film had no titles.
“When the film Apocalypse Now was released in its original format, which was 70mm, there was no main title and there were no end titles. And so the film ended, people had been given a program and that was the end. But when the film was about to have its normal 35mm release the idea of giving programs was no longer feasible. Perhaps I made a mistake that the end we would have a normal credits sequence with these explosions, but the appearance of these prints in general release seemed to reinforce the idea that perhaps there really were two options for the ending and that the explosions of the Kurtz compound really supported the idea that there was another, more war-like apocalyptic ending, which was not really my intention. So, as soon as I realised that this 35mm credits sequence supported this view I hold it back and created a title sequence just over black. ”
