Making a Mess: a History of Megalopolis

Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis recently premiered in theaters...42 years after he originally conceived of the film. I dug into biographies and newspapers to learn all I could about the storied history of Megalopolis in order to prepare myself to actually see it. In this video, I’ll tell you everything I’ve learned: why the film took so long to make, the ideas behind it, the various controversies surrounding its release, and, finally, my thoughts on how it turned out.

A lot of footage in this video comes from this One From the Heart Documentary, which I highly recommend for a more detailed look at Zoetrope Studios: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x22nKYj0GO8
