In Episode 7, we look at the story behind the Mission Briefing scene including the bit part played by Harrison Ford, Kurtz's original name, the cinematography, where "terminate with extreme prejudice" came from, and how it was refilmed after Keitel was fired. We also take a look at cinematographer Vittorio Storaro and his life leading up to being involved in Coppola's epic war story.
