In Episode 22 of Making Apocalypse Now, we’ll talk about how Dennis Hopper’s own major artistic risk lead to career slump that Apocalypse Now would help fix, how Hopper would bring even more insanity to the production, the inspirations for the photojournalist character, and the story behind the Colby character that was cut from the movie–including the crazy death scene of Colby and the photojournalist that didn’t make it into the final film.
