Do you know the favorite film of the 70s of Bradley Cooper? Index: it is a work by Francis Ford Coppola winner of an Oscar and a palm of gold, but it is not “Apocalypse Now”!
A few years ago, The Rotten Tomatoes site had asked Bradley Cooper (who cried enormously in front of a Marvel production) what his favorite film of the 70s was. The American actor had then cited a work of the great Francis Ford Coppola, winner of an Oscar and the Palme d’Or. Do you probably think of Apocalypse Now, who obtained these two prestigious awards? Well you are wrong!
After “The Godfather”, Coppola turns for $ 2 million!
In the interview with Rotten Tomatoes found by the Faroutmagazine siteBradley Cooper declares that his favorite work of the decade in question is secret conversation, spy film released in theaters in 1974 which saw Coppola, in the wake of his godfather pharaonic, returning to a very modest production. Shot in 56 days for a budget of barely $ 1.9 million, secret conversation plays very skillfully with the codes of the thriller paranoid spying, with which those of an intimate drama mix.
Secret conversation, acclaimed by the spectators of Allociné with an average note of 3.7 out of 5, tells the story of Harry Caul (embodied by the late Gene Hackman), specialist in the figure committed to follow a couple and record their conversation. Once his mission is accomplished, he listens to the soundtrack. The banality of the words surprises him. Is it a secret code?
“I think if I choose this film, it’s for her editing her”
“Conversation secret is a film directed by one of the best authors and directors of the 70s and 80s”said Bradley Cooper at the microphone of Rotten Tomatoes. “I think that if I choose it, it is for his sound montage. Even if Gene Hackman plays a sound engineer, the sound of the film is really innovative. There are conversations in the foreground that we hear barely, and who are the main conversation. So they play a lot with the location of the microphone. It’s really great.”
