And Go-mer, ignorance is bliss as they say. The truth hurts sometimes but living in denial just lets things get worse. If you want to change the world for the better then you have to realise that it sucks and then strive to improve it. Its called the progression of civilisation and its why humanity is the most advanced species in the known universe.

Yes, but Coppola hasn't gone on a fan-hating spree to destroy the original negative either. I'm sure that if someone offered to do the work, he'd take it. Plus, as I understand it, the theatrical DVD looks reasonably good. I ought to rent it. The film is something of an oddity to me. I wonder if we'll ever see a legal release of the Rough Cut or Heart of Darkness: A Filmaker's Apocalypse?
