The latest from Francis Ford Coppola is a crime/drama film titled Megalopolis.
Starring Adam Driver, Aubrey Plaza, Chloe Fineman, Shia LaBeouf, and Giancarlo Esposito; we’re in for a fable about an architect (Driver) who wants to rebuild New York City as a utopia, following a devastating disaster.
This one I’m interested in because it’s Coppola, director of the highly rated The Godfather (1972). Nevertheless, based on this trailer, there’s plenty going on. Fingers crossed that it comes together well and becomes another Coppola epic.
The title is a peculiar word, isn’t it? That precise thought had me saying Megalopolis three times fast, assuming it would be quite the tongue twister. Turns out Megalopolis is actually very easy to say, for me at least. As such, I’m likely just ignorant of the type of words and letter arrangements that make for the toughest of tongue twisters
How do you feel about this trailer and our hopeful protagonist’s lofty goals? Additionally, are you also able to easily say Megalopolis three times fast?
Nathalie Emmanuel, James Remar, Talia Shire, D.B. Sweeney, Kathryn Hunter, Balthazar Getty, Sonia Ammar, Jon Voight, Dustin Hoffman, Laurence Fishburne, Jason Schwartzman, Charlene Amoia and Grace VanderWaal also star.
Happy Film Loving,
