It is the height of the war in Vietnam, and U.S. Army Captain Willard is sent by Colonel Lucas and a General to carry out a mission that, officially, 'does not exist - nor will it ever exist'. The mission: To seek out a mysterious Green Beret Colonel, Walter Kurtz, whose army has crossed the border into Cambodia and is conducting hit-and-run missions against the Viet Cong and NVA. The army believes Kurtz has gone completely insane and Willard's job is to eliminate him! Willard, sent up the Nung River on a U.S. Navy patrol boat, discovers that his target is one of the most decorated officers in the U.S. Army.

After some hair-raising encounters, in which some of his crew are killed, Willard, Lance and Chef reach Colonel Kurtz's outpost, beyond the Do Lung Bridge. Now, after becoming prisoners of Kurtz, will Willard & the others be able to fulfill their mission? |

A mentally challenged, middle-aged man named Chance (Peter Sellers) has spent all his life working as a gardener in the townhouse of a wealthy old man in Washington. When the owner dies, Chance is kicked out of the house. Knowing of the outside world only from maid Louise (Ruth Attaway) and television, he makes his first uncertain steps in the unfamiliar world and unexpectedly finds himself struck by a limousine owned by an influential and wealthy industrialist, Ben Rand (Melvyn Douglas). His wife Eve (Shirley MacLaine) invites Chance to their estate to convalesce and have dinner. Well-dressed and neat, the former gardener is mistaken for a man of means and his simple and serious utterances about gardening, which sound like metaphoric economic and political predictions, impress Ben so favorably that he decides to take Chance under his wing. He is soon introduced to US President (Jack Warden) and eventually rises to a powerful position in Washington society. |
