  • Apocalypse Now Movie Poster

    Apocalypse Now

    £50.00

    “I’ve seen horrors… horrors that you’ve seen. But you have no right to call me a murderer. You have a right to kill me. You have a right to do that… but you have no right to judge me. It’s impossible for words to describe what is necessary to those who do not know what horror means. Horror… Horror has a face… and you must make a friend of horror. Horror and moral terror are your friends. If they are not, then they are enemies to be feared.”

    There is no doubting the influence and impact of Francis Ford Coppola’s 1979 masterpiece “Apocalypse Now” with any paper hugely desirable and the original US lobby card offered here is no exception. This lobby card (#3) is the only one from the set of eight to feature Marlon Brando, and it is a fantastic close up image of him as a shaven headed Colonel Kurtz. A truly memorable image from Coppola’s voyage into the ‘Heart of Darkness’. Originally flat/unfolded (as issued) this impressive example presents and displays to excellent effect and represents a fine piece of cinematic memorabilia from one of the finest film’s ever made…“You don’t talk to Colonel Kurtz…You listen to him.”

    Trivia: Marlon Brando improvised the line “You’re an errand boy, sent by grocery clerks, to collect a bill.”
