Francis Ford Coppola’s “The Conversation” | The Queen’s Film Society
The Conversation is a gripping psychological thriller from Francis Ford Coppola that’s just as haunting and relevant today as when it was made. Gene Hackman delivers a career-best performance as a surveillance expert who becomes obsessed with a recording that may reveal a murder. With its tense atmosphere, moody score, and slow-burning suspense, it’s the kind of film that demands your full attention—and the big screen makes every shadow, whisper, and silence hit that much harder. Come experience a masterclass in paranoia and storytelling the way it was meant to be seen. Also starring John Cazale, Frederic Forrest, Cindy Williams, Teri Garr, Harrison Ford, and Allen Garfield. A 1974 Oscar nominee for Best Picture and winner of the Palme d’Or (top prize) at the Cannes Film Festival. Newly restored for its 50th Anniversary.
