DS, signed “Joseph Sheen,” one page, 8.5 x 11, September 25, 1977. Agreement between Sheen and Coppola Cinema Seven, in part: "I hereby waive any and all rights which I may have to receive credit on the screen for my services rendered in connection with the film entitled 'Apocalypse Now'…I understand that it is your intention to provide credit on a printed program rather than on the screen in certain showings of the Film, and I hereby agree to waive my screen credit provided that credit is accorded to me under those circumstances." In fine condition. After Martin Sheen collapsed from a serious, near-fatal heart attack on March 5, 1977, his look-alike, sound-alike younger brother, Joe Estevez—who signs here as "Joseph Sheen"—filled in on set during six weeks of recovery; Estevez would also provide voiceovers needed for the Captain Willard character during post.
