Last Heston post: 4/2/68 Apes setting records. Four days later, CH is getting the Oscars postponed out of respect for Dr. MLK's assassination/funeral. Later that day(!) he reads source novel for Soylent Green.

Heston finished shooting Apes in early August, 1967, then embarked on a troop tour in Vietnam. This was the "Summer of Love." What a life.

Maybe this is well known but not by me! Director Franklin Schaffner came up with the iconic ending of the original film? (Detailed in CH's journal a mere 5 days before the start of principal photography.)

They have no American films released before 1975. #FilmSky
