Francis Ford Coppola's latest film, 'Megalopolis,' has become the talk of the Cannes Film Festival. With a budget of $120 million, Coppola addressed the financial aspect at a press conference, stating, 'The money doesn’t matter.' The film, which stars Adam Driver and Aubrey Plaza, has generated mixed reviews. Some critics have praised it as a 'wild and delirious fever dream' that inspires hope for the future of movies, while others have described it as a 'frustrating madcap odyssey' and 'one of the most unhinged things ever projected on a screen.' Despite the divisive opinions, Coppola remains unfazed, noting he hasn't seen the reviews but was told the film 'went over very well.' The director also highlighted the dedication of the cast, which includes Jon Voight and Nathalie Emmanuel, to his vision. Coppola's passion project has sparked discussions about the current state of Hollywood and its willingness to take risks for art. Additionally, Coppola noted the film's timely relevance.
