Francis Ford Coppola Updates

" "If I've met three geniuses in my life, I would have to say I would put Marlon at the head of the list. Akira Kurosawa was a genius and Orson Welles...Not only as an actor, just as a man. Just as someone who's intelligent and his constantly inquiring mind about life, insect life, nature and the universe - I mean he was this kind of a person.""

"Oranges of Doom Perhaps the most famous of Coppola's symbols is the orange. When you see an orange in one of the Godfather films, it is safe to assume that a character is fucked. I guess it's literally in some cases, as here Sonny's wife shows her friends the size of his verga."
