Film premiere on September 26: The joyful celebration of Coppolas “Megalopolis”

“My great fear is that one of the best ways to make a film is to make a film that has a theme, and that mache is advised. (…) I wish you a deep-voiced heart, that film is not going to be.” Whoever experiences the reality of the self-destruction of director Francis Ford Coppola (85), but war – it is still a space masterpiece “Apocalypse Now” has fallen.

In the 1990s, the documentary “Reise ins Herz der Finsternis” described a man who had experienced a demoralization and self-realization of the crisis dramas of 1979 opolis”, which was 26. September in the Kinos kommt, von merkswertem Optimismus a brilliant contrast, especially when a man thinks about it, that is Opus Magnum fast 50 Years of Entstehungsgeschichte behind itself…

Old Rome versus Future Vision – this is the theme

First War New Rome The epicenter of the world, the center of power. Other businesses and customs have taken over the Metropole massif and the time that generated the colossal building. When one of the few people from the new Rome has found his wife: Cäsar Catilina (Adam Driver, 40), Nobel Prize winner and brilliant seeker of miracle materials Megalo, who has a vision of the wiederauferstehung.

Dabei posits sich ihm Bürgermeister Franklyn Cicero (Giancarlo Esposito, 66) entgegen. He can take a position of power and connect with the other elite, while the power is besieging the city. Inmitten dieser both Männer steht die hübsche Julia (Nathalie Emmanuel, 35) – Tochter des Bürgermeisters und de Geliebte des Erfinders.

Monumental brain project in film history

The Ambition, the downfall of Rom in a Sci-Fi-Welt, war at Coppola lasted 47 years. In the year 1977 there was a first evil idea. At the end of the 80s the plant started a few years later. On September 11, 2001 the Corona pandemic became a fact. First in the year 2022 was the official start for the preparation.

There was an Untertreibung, “Megalopolis” as Coppola’s Herzensanliegen zu bezeichnen. 120 million US dollars are invested in financing films from own income. If the war is so heavy, but in 2021 the war will continue, the Californians will be sold.

Bisher hat is very functional

With the announced Kinostart of “Megalopolis” the various reports have appeared. A tyrannical filmmaker, chaotic terms at the end, sudden plans: The inconsiderate, the seemingly non-starter in the box office wanted to stimulate, what Coppola himself wanted. I found an interview with “Deadline”: “I would have a cast, I would say that I would get a Tag. And in the inside of the time plans and the budgets, I was the most important.”

It is worth ending the fragmentation: It is possible that the purchase with Coppola can have a balanced effect. It is not clear that “Apocalypse Now” is clear. While the situation was particularly tense with his 1972 gangster classic “Der Pate”, the director himself said: “I didn’t come to ‘Der Pate’ at all with (Producer, Anm. d. Ed.) Bob Evans clearly. There The war is stronger with the mirror. The war and the seriousness of the war that won the Oscar for ‘Patton’ will be won 100 percent. “

If you want to undertake a self-financed project “Megalopolis”, Coppola will not be involved in its development. This sorrow lasts for a while in another, perhaps even greater, walked by: If the film should flop, the director will have the honorable financial follow-up.
