“The cinema as we know it is falling apart,” says Francis Ford
Coppola.
“It’s a period of incredible change,” says the director of “The
Godfather” and “Apocalypse Now.” “We used to think of six, seven big
film companies. Every one of them is under great stress now. Probably
two or three will go out of business and the others will just make
certain kind of films like ‘Harry Potter’ -- basically trying to make
‘Star Wars’ over and over again, because it’s a business.”
Yes, the poor babies are suffering. B.S. The movie biz is one of the
only things not hit hard by the American-made recession. |

The movie business is pretty hard hit. I know dozens of people in the
business struggling to hold onto their homes. Two years ago, I didn't know
anyone in that situation. I know attorneys who can't find jobs as
assistants. I know former vp's who are temping.
Of course, this post was from Rich, so a certain recto-cranial inversion is
expected.
