I'm all for it. I really hope it's good, or at the least interesting.
Coppola will not go out on Twixt. Thank you cinema gods, thank you.

There's like a hundred reasons to assume this won't have anywhere near the old Coppola magic.
But like, what if it does...

If it's anything like his wine.
It'll be mid grade Coppola.

Twixt is one of his few films I haven't seen, but it just can't be. ...Right? |

It's on my to-do list. All I need for Coppola are that, Tetro, and the Jeff Bridges car movie. |

Fun to watch as a meta-text about Coppola's own struggles to make art in a corporate system and his ultimate failure to reinvent the industry. Not especially interesting beyond that though. |

Oof, and they're halfway through shooting it too.
Selfishly I really want Coppola to complete this because I love the premise and want this to be his swan song, but he's already thrown $120 million of his own money into it and sounds like it's going to cost a lot more to bring it across the finish line. Firing department heads at this stage is very worrisome as well.
If we want this movie to be made, we should all reach out to Coppola and egg him on that he can't let his last movie be Twixt. That alone should be motivation for him to make this movie happen.
