Quotes
Francis Ford Coppola:
I'm sure I have missed a whole bunch of opportunities and I am going to miss others, but I caught a lot of them too. In the end it's about how many I catch, not how many I lose.
Goofs
In the end credits for musical listings under the Doors song The End, Elektra (Records) is misspelled (as "Electra.")
Alternate Versions
The DVD is missing a mention of Harvey Keitel as Willard and a scene of Coppola singing Anything Goes is watered down as well.
