MegalopolisFrancis Ford Coppola So -awaited dream projectIt came and went from theaters last year. Usually, after that, a movie appeared on demand or for transmission, but this was not the case here. With what was happening Megalopolis? Now we know.
From July 20, the Coppola movie will be on the road For a series of events called “One night with Francis Ford Coppola and Megalopolis Projection. “It started at Red Bank, NJ, before going to Port Chester, NY;
“This is the way Megalopolis was intended to be seen, ”Coppola said in a statement. “In a large enclosure, with a crowd and followed by intense interactive discussions about the future.” You can get tickets Ticketmasterwhich seems to cost about $ 40.
Launched last year, Megalopolis It was the result of decades of planning and anticipation of the legendary director of The godfather, apocalypse now, and The conversation. It cost more than $ 100 million and was paid almost exclusively by Coppola, but proceeded to bomb at the box office, reaching a little over $ 14 million. However, the enormous ambition of the film and the performances, themes and visuals of the film gave him the beginnings of the classic state of worship. The physical versions of the film were published, but nothing further.
Adam Driver stars in the film as a visionary architect who wants to push his city to the future, only to encounter a hard teeth mayor, played by Giancarlo Esposito. Nathalie Emmanuel, Jon Voight, Laurence Fishburne and Shia Labeouf have fun with Aubrey Plaza as a character named Wow Platinum. Yes, it’s a movie where someone called “Wow Platinum” makes sense.
We don’t think Megalopolis It is a particularly good movie, but it is certainly fascinating, worthy of discussion and, surely, there will be no more cases to see that Coppola discusses his public work in the coming years. If you are a fan, take note.
