Review of The Conversation (1974) by Anthony I — 10 Mar 2015
The best film ever made to be upstaged in the same year by the exact same director. The Conversation is a phenomenal film. A triumph by Coppola. The final 20 minutes is absolutely bone-chilling. In a day and age where our privacy is waining (NSA, net neutrality), this film couldn't be more relevant.
It's going to stick with you for a very long time. Gene Hackman, an actor known for his theatrics, is toned down here to an almost Chaplin-like effect, and he is still incredible. There is so much to say, and so little I feel like writing down.
You just need to see it.
