    The whole move made zero sense even if the quotes were real. Zero relevance to the actual movie. I’m wondering if Coppola is losing it given this coupled with the allegations from the set

      It’s actually pretty brilliant. People are saying the new movie sucks? Point how how the classics from the same director were also panned before people figured it out.

        Here’s some parts of a recent news article:

        "The sources claim that Coppola’s behavior was unprofessional. One source who was on the set during the nightclub scene estimated that between 150 to 200 people were assembled, including background actors and crew as Coppola started directing the scene. The filmmaker kept leaping up to hug and kiss several women, often inadvertently inserting himself into the shot and ruining it, which the source said was unusual. The source said that after multiple takes, Coppola got on a microphone and announced in earshot of everyone in the room, “Sorry, if I come up to you and kiss you. Just know it’s solely for my pleasure.” "
