Francis Ford Coppola, the Academy Award–winning director of The Godfather and Apocalypse Now, is creating a four-part "live cinema" movie based on his own family’s multigenerational history. He lives in San Francisco.
"Live Cinema is packed with detailed diaried notes as well as
other, directorial, observation, as Coppola outlines the
concept-to-reality. Worth a skim through, whatever your present
industry role."
*Screentrade*
"Part technical manifesto, part riveting history of live movies and
TV, and part freewheeling artistic reflection, Live Cinema
compactly presents Coppola's innovative ideas, depth of knowledge,
and enduring passions in the live cinema space."
*Entertainment Weekly*
"... the ideas conjured in this brief, filmy volume will interest
any movie nut."
*Jonathan Dean, Stage & Screen Books of the Year 2017 - The Sunday
Times*
"Live Cinema and its Techniques is a short, accessible, vividly
personal, defiantly oddball and fascinating book."
*Viewfinder*
"Part manifesto, part instruction manual, Live Cinema is a melange
of film theory, professional advice, personal history, television
history, work notes and Coppola’s assorted thoughts on live film
production."
*Times Literary Supplement*
