Francis Ford Coppola: Self - Director

Quotes 

• Self - Director : "Duel" was a composition that had a very illusive and interesting theme, you know, this unknown menace. Everyones been on a road and some idiot has crossed in front of you and, you know, you're tempted to rev up fast and go do something nasty to him. And here he took this and made it into a parable.

• Self - Director : Steven always was a creature of the studio and his thinking and his methodology went that direction. And he became a master of it. He was very fortunate that the kind of movie he really had a sense for, was also the kind of movie that the audience had a sense for.

• Self - Director : Steven was blessed in that he could be commercial and he could do art. And that's why I always compare him to a kind of George Gershwin, because, Gershwin could write a Broadway show or he could write Concerto in F, he could do both. And very few people can do both. And Steven can do both. And that's a talent you have to be born with.
