The Conversation
1974

Editorial
This Oscar®-nominated classic directed by Francis Ford Coppola and starring Gene Hackman is an enthralling character study inspired by Antonioni’s Blow-Up. Embodying the Cold War era of paranoia with formal and political rigor, The Conversation deservingly won the Palme d’Or in 1974.
