Check out Francis Ford Coppola’s recommend reads that inspired him.
Inspiration can come to filmmakers in so many different ways. For Francis Ford Coppola, his inspiration for his upcoming project, Megalopolis, came in the form of four specific books.
There is little known about Coppola’s sci-fi epic Megalopolis beyond the Wikipedia description of the premise, which reads: “In New York, a woman (Nathalie Emmanuel) is divided between loyalties to her father (Forest Whitaker), who has a classical view of society, and her lover (Adam Driver), who is more progressive and ready for the future.”
The director took to Instagram to share the four books “that strongly have influenced [Megalopolis]” and his view of the “society we live in.” Let’s take a look at them below.
