Francis Ford Coppola is a critically acclaimed filmmaker, screenwriter, and producer, best known for directing The Godfather trilogy. A key figure in the New Hollywood movement of the later 20th century, he redefined American cinema with bold storytelling and technical innovation. The Godfather, Coppola’s breakthrough film, and The Godfather Part II won Best Picture Oscars, with the latter earning him his first Best Director award. His films, including The Conversation and Apocalypse Now, both recipients of the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival, are celebrated for their masterful direction and psychological depth. Building a legacy of visionary filmmaking, Coppola continues to push boundaries, most recently with his long-awaited epic Megalopolis, released in September 2024.
