From audacious triumph to conspicuous failure and personal crises
that would have rendered a lesser artist catatonic, Francis
Ford Coppola has survived to resemble the title character
of his best-known film: he is a Godfather of the cinema, a mentor
to many (most notably George Lucas) whose passione informs every
aspect of his life and work. A master craftsman whose filmmaking
acumen is matched by his underrated talent as a screenwriter,
Coppola
has created some of the greatest films of the modern age; as a
director-for-hire, even his lesser films retain the mark of a
born storyteller.
