    great interview, more people need to view cinema as an art form like this, and not simply as a delivery method of cookie cutter storytelling styles for the content pipeline

    "We can't waste one another"; this is probably the most important message of the interview 🙏

    loved it! Used this interview to teach my young students ABOUT doing something meaningful for life - as in work, art, etc. They are aged 15 - 20. We discussed Coppola's point of view of art: "leap into the unkown". Glad to watch it.

    Frances Ford Coppola was lovely in this interview. He seems to be facing a lot of criticism for this movie and instead of doubling down and defending, which would be easy to do for someone who put a third of a lifetime into making a movie, he gets his thoughts out gently and extrapolates on the decisions he’s made over the years in film making in such a relatable way.
    That being said, and I’m not a huge film buff or the most diehard FFC fan… this legendary person was being interviewed by someone talking to him through a really bad microphone on his back balcony. If some narcissistic film maker, which there probably are plenty, was interviewed in that way they would be fucking livid. He’s just like “Hey, give me your questions, and I’ll give you my answers”. Btw, no hate on the interviewer and his lovely balcony. This guy is just doing his job.
    I didn’t want to give this movie a shot until I watched this interview with the legend himself. Ciao.

    Coppola, Spielberg, Scorsese and Lucas. Four seminal renegade film makers who all came of age around the same time. The movie Industry had never seen the likes of them before and is unlikely to have such a foursome again. Now they are the old guard defending the integrity of film.

      It was definitely one of the worst betrayals of dramatic structure, logic, character arcs, and proper storytelling of the last decade or so. And there's already been SOOO many. 🤮 What a shame.

    He's right; we're trivializing our own miracle. Ever since our expansion pack (Homo Sapiens) popped out of the evolutionary machinery, we've been behaving like a slow motion, dinosaur killing meteor looking to cause another extinction level event.

    Think of this: he did go to the bank for this film, the studio did not want to take the risk. the interest rates are 800.000 dollars every month. for this alone we all should at least see that this movie once. an extraordinary filmmaker, standing out as an example for all artists and creatives, to take matters in our own hands. of course not everybody has 125 milion at his hand, but i think this counts for smaller budgets as well. choose your allies wisely, find ways to get some money and then f... do it.

    A true living legend. I saw the movie on Monday and I thought it was a beautiful mess. I admire the film, but the story was confusing. The performances were from very different movies and they didn’t mesh. I don’t know if I can recommend it. I’m on the fence.

    If you've seen the preview with Adam Driver leaping off the Chrysler Building, it turns out thats how the film opens. Which happens to also be how my short film noir, completed in 2012, begins, with my protagonist jumping off the Chrysler Building. So, Im getting a little kick out of that. My film is called Bum Rap Andre Hunt, and it's on UA-cam. It's 11 minutes.

    There is no f*cking way this movie wasn't satire. If this was a critique on the social elite as a satirical piece of art then it was amazing. If it was serious it was one of the worst films ever made.
