Megalopolis (2024)
Movie
Released
Francis Ford Coppola lets a city become an enormous argument about who gets to imagine its future. The abrupt tonal changes and declamatory dialogue can be maddening, yet the film's images and reckless theatricality keep creating something to discuss. The defence is curiosity about an unruly personal vision, not a claim that its politics or storytelling hold neatly together.
