Good for Coppola to continue to take chances. His life and work is so interesting

My favorite American filmmaker of all-time. He always put it all on the line. A legend.

One of my favorite filmmakers. Apocalypse Now is one of the greatest films ever made. Bram Stoker's Dracula, in terms of genre, is one of the greatest and most visually stunning horror films ever made. The music and sound in this film are equal to the cinematography. Both films were especially amazing in the theaters on the big screens and with big sound systems. Unfortunately most people today will not have seen them that way. Obviously these are just my opinions and I won't change my mind about them just because some troll use the comments to disparage the films, the filmmaker, or the other brilliant artists involved in making them.

I know this was a brief story [7:38] about one man's lifetime career, but I was still disappointed that FFC's One From The Heart (1981) wasn't even mentioned. That was one of his losing bets but it's still one of my favorite movies. Kudos to FFC for living well into his 80s.

Anyone interested should also lookup Coppola's connection and endorsement with Victor Salva, and his sueing and harassment of Salva's victim. In a world where everyone gets called out for telling a joke, the dark actions of Coppola seem consistently ignored.

I remember seeing a photo of him in the late 1980s and he was bloated as Hitchcock. I just thought he's not gonna last long. Fortunately I was totally wrong. I really hope his new movie to be as compelling as Apocalypse Now.

Does he mention Coppola's acquisition and presumably destruction of Abel Gance's 1923-27 NAPOLEAN, so that no one else could see that much MUCH longer version in Coppola's possesion/destruction "just because he can"?

No. It wasn't due to his poor business acumen. What happened was he burned out creatively. He made three masterpieces in Godfather, Godfather II and Apocalypse Now, and hasn't make anything worth watching since. It happens. Most world class filmmakers are lucky to make one masterpiece. He has nothing to be ashamed of but he was done a long time ago.
