Trent Reznor’s secret weapon has always been his curiosity about electronic sound. Fuzzy synth beds, harshly grating electro shrieks, and airy atmospheres have comprised an exoskeleton for his vocals and guitar lines since Nine Inch Nails’ Pretty Hate Machine, amplifying the despair, tenderness, and anger of his songs. Those same tonalities have helped him and his writing partner, Atticus Ross, in their score work, defining the emotional moods of scenes in Watchmen, Gone Girl, and The Social Network — the last of which won them an Oscar.

Amongst a particularly strong month for new theatrical releases, one that’s near the top of our must-see list is Francis Ford Coppola’s reworking of his war epic, Apocalypse Now: Final Cut. Following a Tribeca Film Festival world premiere, the 4K restoration of his Vietnam War film, presented in Dolby Vision Hdr with Dolby Atmos sound, will arrive in IMAX theaters on August 15 & 18, followed by a 4K Ultra HD release at the end of the month.
Ahead of the release, a new trailer has now arrived, which features an introduction by the director who says it his favorite version of the film. Nick Newman caught it at Tribeca, saying, “More a reigned-in second stab than radical reworking, it suggests where he’d turned right or wrong, shows an affable stubbornness in the retention of lesser-liked pieces, and at day’s end maybe breeds further ambiguity as to what really shapes a masterpiece.
