Een van de interessantere berichten van vorig jaar was het feit dat oude rot Francis Ford Coppola weer op de regisseursstoel plaats zal nemen voor de verfilming van Mircea Aliade's Youth Without Youth. Time Magazine had een gesprek met de grootmeester.
Is Youth Without Youth a "little" film?
"It's a story by Mircea Eliade, a Romanian writer, that I found provocative. It wasn't about undercover cops. It was about consciousness. It starts in 1938 and runs through the Second World War and goes from Bucharest to Switzerland to India to Malta. It's a big movie in terms of tackling the production. But I financed it through my wine business, and I took a page from Sofia's--my daughter's--book where she had made Lost in Translation for just a modest amount."
