Audiences have waited a long time for Megalopolis.
Francis Ford Coppolahas made some of the most defining American films of all time, includingThe Godfathertrilogy andApocalypse Now.
The seeds forMegalopoliswere planted when as a kid I saw H.G.
WellsThings to Come, Coppola wrote in a statement toVanity Fair.
The elderly Cabal arrives to announce the work of a group of inventors called Wings Over the World.
Under Cabals guidance, Wings Over the World ushers in a new era of progress and abundance.
Megalopoliscomes after a trio of self-funded avant-garde films, which capture Coppolas vision if not his usual acclaim.
But the filmmaker compares his last project to some of his best works.
I considered many possibilities, becoming interested in an incident known as The Catiline Conspiracy,' he explained.
Since Coppola announced the project, fans have wondered whatMegalopoliswould be.
These references to H.G.
Coppola will be ending his career on his own terms.
