You can not imagine how much work a movie will mean. Some projects needed decades for their implementation. Often it is the perfectionism, or even the creative madness of the creators of these films, that makes everything escalate. But just as often it is coincidences and adversities that drive productions to the brink of disaster. Apocalypse Now is a good example. A storm destroys almost the entire set and lead actor Martin Sheen suffered a heart attack. The production costs went through the roof when 16 instead of 8 months was turned. Such huge and sprawling projects create a lot of material, which does not make it into the final version. In the case of Apocalypse Now, another 50 minutes of additional scenes were in order to release a digitized and re-edited version in 2001 called Apocalypse Now Redux.
