I recently saw the #Coppola - #Movie #Megalopolis. In some Way the #US reminds me a little of the old #Rome. Coppola intended that too.
And now Trump/Nero in the #CircusMaximus/#Superbowl. Horrible.

Absentes également de ce top, quelques grosses déceptions : le fiasco spectaculaire de #Megalopolis, évidemment, mais aussi La Bête, Longlegs, I Saw the TV Glow, Blink Twice et Emilia Pérez, qui m’ont laissé sur le côté malgré parfois de grandes attentes.
what, no one watched Megaloposis?
@leece I mean in terms of how it was made and its budget, rather than the end result, specifically.
It cracked the Hollywood system similarly to how he and others broke the old system as part of "new Hollywood" in the 60's and 70's.
His Zoetrope dream is alive, though this may be his last shot across the bow of the prevailing regime.
Maybe, but not likely, by financing his own big budget film he's encouraged other wealthy filmmakers who bemoan the "death" of cinema.

I just saw #megalopolis. I don't know what I just watched, but I really want to watch it again! Beautiful, bonkers, beguiling. And happy that Coppola got to make the movie he wanted to make.

If you want to see Aubrey Plaza understand the assignment, check out #Megalopolis.
Wow #Megalopolis is simply awful. This is what happens when a director is allowed to do anything and no one will say no. Terrible performances, terrible script, and a plot that is at once stupidly simply and idiotically flowery. Don’t waste your time.

She’s the sanest character in #Megalopolis.
i liked #Megalopolis and laughed/gawked through the beautiful and strange first hour; thereafter things grew difficult, maybe illustrating a difficulty faced by visionary art/artists:
