Last Wednesday, Francis Ford Coppola's MEGALOPOLIS screened in London. Here's a brief reaction via @LePoint: "The film is like Einstein and relativity in 1905, Picasso and Guernica in 1937. Coppola marks a historic new moment for cinema" https://t.co/ElqV8h1S0o https://t.co/IufDh0LuRg
Just recently rewatched The Conversation and it remains fantastic. Coppola also directed The Godfather Part II that year, which ultimately won Best Picture/Best Director. Safe to say, the man owned 1974 in film. AK https://t.co/OsP0ZtphOY

As the release of Francis Ford Coppola’s self-funded, $100 million extravaganza ‘Megalopolis’ nears, it’s worth revisiting ‘The Conversation’ from 50 years ago as a reminder of what it looks (and sounds) like when a master is at work. @brofromanother: https://t.co/32L5vVsyiy
