Directed by Francis Ford Coppola • 2024 • United States
Starring Frederic Forrest, Teri Garr, Nastassja Kinski
One of the most intoxicating cinematic achievements of the 1980s is given spectacular new life in this director-approved reimagining, which includes six minutes of never-before-seen footage. After the era-defining successes of THE GODFATHER and APOCALYPSE NOW, director Francis Ford Coppola swung for the fences once more with this colossally ambitious, gorgeously stylized musical romance featuring songs by Tom Waits, a commercial failure that nearly derailed the director’s career, but which has become cherished for its stunning visuals and innovative approach to the genre. No expense was spared on a lavish soundstage recreation of Las Vegas, a neon dream against which two lovers (Frederic Forrest and Teri Garr) break up and have affairs over the course of one fateful Fourth of July.
