"Metropolis" Cannes premiere! Coppola and Adam Driver and others appeared | (2/9)
1905 Film Network News On May 16, 2024 local time, in Cannes, France, the red carpet premiere of the 77th Cannes Film Festival "Metropolis". Director Francis Ford Coppola, starring Adam Driver, Natalie Emmanuel, Aubrey Plzak and others attended.
Written in the 1980s and set in New York, the film Metropolis tells the story of an architect's attempt to create a utopia in the city, which is strongly opposed by the mayor. Coppola had been dreaming of the film for many years, and in order to raise money for the film, he sold his winery to fund the film, which cost more than $100 million to make.
However, after the film's premiere in Cannes, it unexpectedly received a large number of negative reviews, scoring a score of 2.1 (on a 4-point scale) in the screen catalogue, which viewers found to be too vague, confusing and elusive.
