En se concentrant sur la vie de Dalton Trumbo (1905-1976), ce film examine les effets sur les individus et les familles de la poursuite par le Congrès des communistes d'Hollywood après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Trumbo était l'un des nombreux écrivains, réalisateurs et acteurs qui ont invoqué le premier amendement en refusant de répondre aux questions sous serment. Ils ont été mis sur la liste noire et emprisonnés. Nous suivons Trumbo en prison, en exil au Mexique avec sa famille, dans la pauvreté, dans le rejet public de ses enfants, dans ses écrits sous d'autres noms, et dans une éventuelle mais incomplète réhabilitation. Des acteurs lisent ses lettres ; ses enfants et ses amis se souviennent et commentent. Des photos d'archives, des films d'actualités et des interviews ajoutent de la texture.

The title is derived from the source material for Apocalypse Now, the Joseph Conrad novella Heart of Darkness. Using behind-the-scenes footage, and narrated by Eleanor Coppola, it chronicles how production problems including bad weather, actors' health and other issues delayed the film, increasing costs and nearly destroying the life and career of Francis Ford Coppola. In 1990, Eleanor Coppola turned her material over to two young filmmakers, George Hickenlooper and Fax Bahr (co-creator of MADtv), who then shot new interviews with the original cast and crew and intercut them with her existing material. After a year of editing, Hickenlooper, Bahr, and Coppola debuted their film at the 1991 Cannes Film Festival to universal critical acclaim.

Durant le festival de Cannes en 1982, Wim Wenders a invité les cinéastes présents à se rendre tour à tour dans la chambre 666 de l'hôtel Martinez et à mettre en marche la caméra et le magnétophone qu'il y avait placés pour répondre à une seule question : «le cinéma est-il un langage en train de se perdre, un art qui va mourir ? ».
