The Conversation
Mike and Dan have a secretly-recorded conversation about The Conversation, Francis Ford Coppola's 1974 examination of wiretapping, privacy, and conscience. Dan notes that the film takes its spiritual themes seriously; Mike talks about Gene Hackman's remarkable performance. Dan confesses to thinking there was a mistake in the screenplay but then realizing that what he first assumed was lazy writing turned out to be just the opposite. Take a listen to our show about the film Coppola made between The Godfather and The Godfather Part II and why it deserves a new screening in your home. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/15minutefilmfanatics/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/15minutefilmfanatics/support
