Celebrate the 45th anniversary of Francis Ford Coppola’s timely political thriller THE CONVERSATION

“Made in-between the first two GODFATHER films, Coppola’s THE CONVERSATION is a character study of its protagonist Harry Caul (Hackman), woven into an eerie psychological thriller. Caul, a surveillance expert, records a conversation between a couple in a crowded Union Square in San Francisco, but his cool objectivity as surveillor slowly begins to unravel as he becomes convinced that the subjects that he spied on are in danger. A prescient examination of privacy and surveillance in the Watergate era, it is every bit as relevant and timely today, in the wake of revelations of the NSA’s international surveillance.” (Alamo Drafthouse)
