The movie Cinephiles was excited when Roman, the son of Francis Ford Coppola, announced that he was becoming a film director. His dream of entering filmmaking is that he may continue his legacy godfather Guid the father. Instead, he made a movie about making a movie.
CQ It is a 2001 movie that tells the story of a movie that has never been made before. Don’t worry, it’s not confusing. Boring, yes, but certainly not confusing. future Lost Star Jeremy Davies plays the struggling young director Paul, who fundes his solo films by working as a film editor in a cheesy big science fiction movie. But his director had no ending, and Paul eventually found himself helpful to the job.
Coppola’s directorial debut is a part-layer and stylistic film that is still trying to make sense of cinemas despite its rather slow pace and almost a method of character development. Maybe the real problem is that the main character Paul is a stupid person.
Paul was cut off emotionally and lacked charm. He is not a bad guy, but it is difficult to understand him when the young Paul seems to do his best to avoid interacting with the environment. He hid behind the camera, behind the movie, and eventually drove out the woman he cared for. In the process, while he quickly planned the method of drawing development, the young Roman Coppola was driving the audience to sleep.
CQThe structure is an interesting head. Coppola stuffs three movies into one and uses them to tell the story of one person involved in the three.
The first film was Paul’s private film, where he tapes it to capture “real honesty.” The second is a science fiction movie built by Paul, who knows his actors and himself in the process. The third one is the movie we are watching, which is a movie that closes the other two movies.
Before making CQ, Roman Coppola’s career has been mainly in filming music videos. After that, he returned to that kind of performance. He did try to make several smaller feature films and documentaries, but no one paid attention to his first film. CQ Roman Coppola’s career as a major filmmaker began and ended. What a pity, because despite the flaws, there is still hope CQ, The promise that could have been cultivated into something special.
