Francis Ford Coppola: Megalopolis and becoming Michael Corleone

As a filmmaker, Francis Ford Coppola (The Godfather, Apocalypse Now) is legendary for his vision, drive and propensity to risk it all.

We revisit Tom Power’s wide-ranging interview with the acclaimed auteur about why he doesn’t want “Megalopolis” to be called a passion project, how making his masterpiece “The Godfather” turned his life upside down, and why he always ends up becoming the characters in his films.
