Adam Driver: It’s kind of undefinable
Talking to ‘The Face’, Driver also called ‘Megalopolis’ “undefinable.” He said, “It’s kind of undefinable, which feels very general until you watch the movie. Then my answer will be perfect. There’s not a lot of precedent for it and it’s wild on a big scale, which is what’s unique about it.”
“Francis Coppola is visionary”
Praising the legendary director of ‘The Godfather’ and ‘Apocalypse Now’, two of the greatest films of all time, Drive told ‘The Face’, “He’s a visionary. He’s very much Francis [Ford Coppola], in a way, where he’s investigated every way of how people can do something and is trying not to get stuck on the right answer. That’s an idea that’s moving to me – and one that reflects Francis.”
