I love all 5 the planet of the apes movies and all 3 of the new ones my grandfather loved 5 of the original movies but sadly he passed away when I was little he would have loved the new trilogy I love you grandpa😔🙏💝
Had a journo friend, retired, who interviewed Roddy once. Said Roddy was one of the few true genlemen in the movie business. Not well-known is Roddy played Octavian in the 1963 version of CLEOPATRA. Great performance, and Fox put it up for an Oscar. But they screwed up and sent it in as recommending him for Best Actor. Wrong category. It was supposed to be for Best Supporting Actor and it was too late to alter. Had they not messed it up, he would have been an Academy Award winner, but I think he had a rich full life anyway.
I remember as a kid, when they aired the movie on TV in the 70s, they would cut out most of the beginning of the movie. I never realized that there was all that story, filmed at Lake Powell until much later when the film was available on VHS tape.

Roddy McDowell was dying of cancer when he made this movie
Mygenes and dot and Co and dot and nz.
So it took him 30 years to die of cancer? 🙈
@@Andyroar1 He died in 1998
@@Andyroar1Think the poster means this specific documentary, not the original Planet of the Apes.
The new POTA movies all suck.
Yes they do !!!
