Movie quiz

[nonconformist]

A new quiz based on movies!
Same format as other quizzes.

A fairly easy one to begin: what film was based on Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness?

 

[MikeLynch]

Apocalypse Now.

What film was based on the MAKING of Apocalypse Now?

 

[thestonesfan]

Uh...the HBO special "The Making of Apocalypse Now"?

 

[MikeLynch]

Nope. It's an actual film, not a TV special.

 

[Ohkrana]

I think the film was just called Heart Of Darkness (with Tim Roth and John Malkovich), can't remember that well.

Apoclyspe Now was loosely based on Konrads book.

 

[Raijer]

There was a documentary about the making of AN, also called "Heart of Darkness."

 

[MikeLynch]

Ding ding ding! Although IIRC the title was actually "HeartS of Darkness." More than one heart.

New question!
