By the way, we sincerely wish absolute ruin and bankruptcy for the ad agency and filmmakers of the hideous AI-generated McDonald's ad.

If you must watch one Francs Ford Coppola film then
watch 'One From the Heart'.
The great thing about Coppola films, is once seen not
forgotten.

I don't care if the studio editor thought he was redeeming Bogdanovich’s film. What he did was an act of fraud.

A movie's theatrical edit is a historical document. You don't just surreptitiously destroy it.

I will not be denied the notoriously shitty theatrical version of AT LONG LAST LOVE!

Getting to see the 4K remaster of this Coppola curio on Valentine’s Day at The PCC and couldn’t be more excited.

Despite this film not entirely working and literally bankrupting Coppola, which he’d spend near on 15 years working off it has a special place in my heart.

"It’s understandable why this put the kibosh on director-controlled films, with Coppola taking an exit wound to his directorial career."

A ★★½ review of One from the Heart (1981)
Last year, I saw a lot of articles and reviews declaring how much of a disaster Megalopolis was for Francis Ford Coppola, as a lot of the younger critics wondered how such a disaster could have come f...

🎰🎲♠ 'One From the Heart' (Francis Ford Coppola, 1982) es todavía una película que me alborota y arrima al fuego de la conciencia. Tramoya de neón (Las Vegas) para almas azoradas (Frederic Forrest, Teri Garr), el sobrevuelo de una 'campanilla' (Nastassja Kinski) y los tangos insomnes de Tom Waits.

One that nobody ever talks about, but I adore, is At Long Last Love.

Bogdanovich at the height of his power trying to make a live recorded musical with stars who couldn’t sing at a time musicals were totally out of fashion, but…

Once you forget all that it’s just an extremely cute, goofy comedy.
A quick question for anybody who wants to answer, just because I'm trying to get my creative juices flowing...

What's your favorite movie or movies that was a box office flop? I'm not talking about like "Man of Steel made $700 million rather than $1 billion," I'm talking about movies that bombed.

5- New York, New York (Martin Scorsese, 1977)

Una de las rarezas, minusvalorada en su momento, de Sorsese, y que mejora con los años. Precioso homenaje al género musical en el que De Niro contó con la mejor aliada posible: Liza Minnelli.

Not only was Heaven's Gate (Cimino, 1980) good, actually, but Michael Cimino was unfairly maligned for it.

It was an exciting time to live in Kalispell Montana when Cimino decided to shoot Heaven's Gate in that town of 10,000. Now Bruce Robinson reflects, one of the main coordinators for extras on the film and brother to Terry Robinson of The Mission Mountain Wood Band, joining after fatal plane crash:
The Deer Hunter's Last Stand, Or, How a Movie Filmed in Montana Almost Destroyed Hollywood
Much of the failure of Heaven's Gate can probably be attributed to the fact that long before anyone even saw the film, it had become notorious as an example of overspending. By the time it made its fi...

Just spent five and a half hours at the NYFF watching Rebecca Miller's Mr. Scorsese, a brilliant, definitive, revelatory portrait of the filmmaker that earned a roaring and well-deserved standing ovation. I truly didn't want it to end.* On Apple 10/17.

*Full disclosure: I am in it for 12 seconds.

🎬 Yes. The hierarchies of power that he reveals in gangster land is here so much more subtle and delicate.
But just as ruthless when it comes to protecting the status quo from outsiders. #Scorsese

The New York critic Vincent Canby stuck the knife in...and so Cimino withdrew the film and there were no audiences.
