We recorded a conversation about a recorded conversation! Join us for this deep dive into Francis Ford Coppola’s seminal New Hollywood Palme d’Or winner The Conversation. The eulogies continue with this episode celebrating the great Gene Hackman. We discuss his masterful performance as Harry Caul, a surveillance whiz who hears something on a job that he wishes he hadn’t and gets caught up in a moral conundrum. Topics include: the Severance theme song, John Cazale’s “type”, and why The Directors Company failed.
