Interview with Coppola

Harry Knowles of Ain't it Cool News sat down with Francis Ford Coppola to discuss his two upcoming films, Youth on Youth and Tetro, his children, and independent filmmaking. The interview, posted last week, doesn't have a lot of juicy tidbits, but I still like hearing what Papa has to say.

Sofia and Roman ("The Kids", as Coppola calls them) are now the co-owners of American Zoetrope, the production company Papa started many moons ago. In addition to producing films, Zoetrope publishes a literary journal and hosts a "virtual studio" where artists (both aspiring and professional) can meet, collaborate, and share their talents.

Oh, and the wine he produces is very good.
