MEGALOPOLIS de Francis Ford Coppola

Coppola dément les rumeurs.

The iconic filmmaker disputed a trade report that conflated turnover in the visual effects and art departments to paint a picture of a runaway train, using words like “peril,” “ballooning budget,” “crew exodus” and “chaos.”

Coppola acknowledged there has been some turnover, but he believes the high drama has been reserved for what he sees each day in dailies. He has seen budgets balloon on some of his past films, and he once famously replaced Harvey Keitel with Martin Sheen weeks into the production of Apocalypse Now. None of what is happening on Megalopolis meets that category. The elimination of the VFX department during production is something he engineered to keep the film on budget — Coppola is using experimental technology in filming, and decided it was more efficient to service most of those effects in postproduction. The art department left over creative differences involving personnel.

Quelques médias indiquent que Mike Figgis tournerait un making of. La source c'est l'insta de Figgis. En allant voir, il a été un peu sur le plateau et a indiqué "documenter" le travail de Coppolla.

C'est extrapole beaucoup autour de ce film.
