- Jeremy Urquhart
- Feature Writer/Senior List Writer
- 'The Conversation' (1974) An engaging slow-burn mystery/psychological drama with a fantastic Gene Hackman performance at its center, The Conversation sometimes gets overlooked, due to it being released in the decade when Coppola was at the height of his powers.
- 'Rumble Fish' (1983) The Outsiders wasn't the only 1983 movie directed by Francis Ford Coppola to star Matt Dillon and focus on disaffected youth, given that year also saw the release of Rumble Fish.
- 'Bram Stoker's Dracula' (1992) A far cry from the sorts of Dracula movies that had been popular in decades past, Bram Stoker's Dracula updates the famous vampire story for the 1990s.
- 'The Rain People' (1969) Francis Ford Coppola's fourth feature film was The Rain People, and it's arguably the first great movie he directed, too. There were flashes of greatness in his earlier movies, to some extent, but this 1969 film feels confident and striking throughout, being a road movie about loneliness, fears of growing old, and the challenges that come with trying to find like-minded people in an increasingly expanding world.
Following his work on the screenplay for The Great Gatsby (1974) , Coppola's next film was The Conversation (1974), which was honored with the Golden Palm Award at the Cannes Film Festival, and brought Coppola Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay Oscar nominations.
