Hardback. Zustand: Good. "Sam Wasson's supremely entertaining book tracks the ups and downs, ins and outs, of a remarkable career. . . .

And it is a story inextricably bound up in the making of one of the greatest quixotic masterpieces ever attempted, Apocalypse Now, and in what Coppola found in the jungles of the Philippines when he walked the razor's edge. That story, already the stuff of legend, has never fully been told, until this extraordinary book.…
