everytime when I read this name or see him I just think "OH MY GOD he made the godfather!"

ATTENTION! Please check out my Channel for my newest short film called 'Ablaze'! I am an artist from London who loves to make films, just like Francis F. Coppola <3

@AStopMotionChannel I'm fairly sure he destroyed all but one during the filming of Apocalypse Now

As much as I admire Francis, I think his time has gone, at least artistically speaking. He is afraid to make films like the Godfather and Apocalypse Now, he doesn't want to be remember for those films. Instead he wants to Scorsese or Goddard, but he is neither.

@Raam2011 like he's saying this one is very 'close to home' for him and brings the viewer a peek deep into his 'private sphere' ;) And maybe he didn't grow up in the shadow of a domineering father figure, but, well, he sure throws a long big shadow and if nothing else it touches topics very close to what most matters in his life, I'd say...

@escapethestairwell I think it makes him only greater. and I think it's by pure design. this man does nothing on camera that isn't communicating exactly what he wants to communicate in every little detail. It's all about him taking a stand and saying that this is finally a movie that REALLY means something to him again. And it is an absolute masterpiece in my eyes. Sooooo good! Thank you Francis!!!

somehow I've imagined Coppola as the father time of cinema, boy he sure showed me.
