    The Liberation of Francis Ford Coppola
    Youth Without Youth
    by Bruce Handy December 2007
    Photograph by Robert Maxwell. V Transformers This December, Coppola will release his first film as a director in 10 years: Youth Without Youth, Downfall. Wings of Desire, may be the only other cast member known to a measurable number of Americans. Coppola has made a defiantly old-fashioned movie in the sense that it would probably have found a larger audience if it had come out alongside Blow-Up Godfather films, with their exquisite sense of control, somehow merged with the Coppola who rode the crazy last third of Apocalypse Now like a rodeo cowboy on a bucking bronco, hanging on for dear life as Marlon Brando lay around in the shadows spouting Eliot and swatting at flies. Coppola says Youth Without Youth Easy Riders, Raging Bulls

Coppola/Murch: Second Youth
By Joe Cellini After ten years away from directing movies, director Francis Ford Coppola is back with a completely different kind of film and a radical new approach to filmmaking. Shot on a shoestring budget in Romania, Youth Without Youth, adapted from a novella by Romanian religious historian Mircea Eliade, wraps a serious exploration of time and consciousness in the exotic trappings of an international thriller and love story. Tim Roth and Director Francis Ford Coppola.
Indie M.O.
With his project set, Coppola decided as well on a return to self-funded, low-budget, personal filmmaking, the kinds of efforts he made briefly before the runaway success of The Godfather changed the course of his career. He scouted locations in Romania, hired a largely Romanian cast and crew, including the young cinematographer Mihai Malaimare, Jr., and had his technical crew outfit a special Dodge Sprinter van with two Sony 900S digital cameras, lenses, and other necessary equipment sufficient to create a complete studio-on-wheels.

November 9, 2007 FRANCIS Ford Coppola doesn't have much respect for the moviegoing public, and he doesn't consider "The Godfather" or "Godfather II" as among his best. In the upcoming issue of Time magazine, the director lists as his top five: "The Rain People" (1969), "The Conversation" (1974), "Apocalypse Now" (1979), "Rumble Fish" (1983) and his about-to-be-released "Youth Without Youth," based on a novella by Romanian-born philosopher Mircea Eliade and starring Tim Roth . "The easiest way to make sure a movie is successful is to make a traditional movie very well," Coppola tells Time. "If you make a slightly unusual movie or [don't] exactly follow the rules as everyone sees them, then you get into trouble." He also discussed the September robbery at his studio in Buenos Aires, where he's making "Tetro" with

Atteint à l'âge de dix ans de la poliomyélite et perdant ainsi l'usage de son bras gauche, Francis Ford Coppola apprend très vite à développer son imagination : durant sa convalescence, il met en scène des marionnettes, regarde beaucoup la télévision et réalise ses premiers films amateurs en 8mm. En 1960, il entre au département cinéma de l'UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles). Trois ans plus tard, Roger Corman lui confie la seconde équipe technique sur le tournage de The young racers , et lui permet par la même occasion de réaliser son premier long métrage :

Apocalypse Now (1979) is producer/director Francis Ford Coppola's visually beautiful, ground-breaking masterpiece with surrealistic and symbolic sequences detailing the confusion, violence, fear, and nightmarish madness of the Vietnam War. Coppola had already become a noted producer/director, following his two profitable and critically-acclaimed Godfather films ( and ) - the epic saga of a Mafia-style patriarch and his successor. This provocative film did for the Vietnam War genre what The Godfather did for the gangster movie.

Filmmaker Movie Producer
Francis Ford Coppola, like his contemporaries Martin Scorsese George Lucas and Steven Spielberg , studied films and filmmaking in college. Coppola's first break came as a screenwriter; he won his first Oscar for writing Patton , the movie based on the life of George S. Patton, Jr. By the late 1960s Coppola had formed his own production company, and in 1972 he released The Godfather , a box office smash and often hailed as one of the best movies of the 1970s (along with two of his other films, 1974's The Conversation , and 1979's Apocalypse Now ). In spite of what is now a spotty record, Coppola is considered one of the greats in the American movie business, more active as a producer these days than as a writer or director. His films as director include The Rain People (1969, with James Caan The Outsiders and Rumble Fish (both 1983, based on the books by

        Interview by James Mottram Friday, 16 November 2007 Like the living embodiment of Don Corleone, when Francis Ford Coppola throws a party, people come to pay their respects. Just minutes before I head up to his hotel suite, with its view over Rome's Spanish Steps, I pass Vittorio Storaro in the lobby. The legendary cinematographer, who won an Oscar for his work with Coppola on Apocalypse Now, has arrived to pick up his ticket for tomorrow night's dinner celebrating Youth Without Youth. Receiving its world premiere at the Rome Film Festival, this movie marks Coppola's return to directing after a 10-year hiatus. More importantly, after years clawing his way out of debt as a director-for-hire on studio films like 1997's John Grisham adaptation The Rainmaker, it's a return to more personal film-making.

Phillips and Rodney Hill 192 pages; University Press of Mississippi hardcover ($50.00) or paperback ($20.00) Support Flickhead — buy this item from Amazon When they were young up-and-coming filmmakers, people such as Francis Coppola were interviewed often by newspapers and magazines in the late 1960’s and early 70’s, back when mainstream America had never even heard of the term ‘filmmaker,’ let alone been exposed to their European-influenced repartee and passion for what was commonly regarded as a Saturday night diversion. The image of ‘The Director’ was the megaphone-brandishing task master, C.B. DeMille or Erich von Stroheim in hip boots and riding crop, but not these longhairs who didn’t wear suits and ties. Nevertheless, Coppola bridged the era’s generation gap, as The Godfather became the picture just about everyone went to see. When Coppola ventured into the costly Vietnam of Apocalypse Now and the costlier synthetic Vegas of One from the Heart , escalating budgets took the focus away from everything else. He became a ‘victim’ of excess, most of it self-inflicted. After having the finest career of the 70’s — no one else delivered a quartet as potent nor as reaching as the two
