THE CONVERSATION (1974)
Special Features: 4K Restoration | Includes a recorded intro by Francis Ford Coppola, exclusive to theaters
Lonely wiretapping expert and devout Catholic Harry Caul (Gene Hackman) is hired to record a seemingly innocuous conversation between two lovers in San Francisco's Union Square. Upon reviewing the tapes, however, Caul believes he may be putting the couple in danger if he turns the material over to his client (Robert Duvall). But what one hears can ultimately turn out to be quite different from what was actually recorded. Winner of the Palme d'Or at the 1974 Cannes Film Festival (where Coppola's most recent film, MEGALOPOLIS, debuted last year), THE CONVERSATION was nominated for three Academy Awards®, losing Best Picture to Coppola's other nominee that year, THE GODFATHER PART II.
