About the Book

What happens when one of cinema's greatest visionaries risks everything-his fortune, his reputation, even his final years-for a dream no one believes can exist? At over eighty years old, Francis Ford Coppola-legendary director of The Godfather and Apocalypse Now-poured more than $120 million of his own money into a film so ambitious that Hollywood refused to touch it. The result was Megalopolis... and the chaos that followed became a story as riveting as any movie he ever made. Megalopolis: A City of Smoke pulls back the curtain on the madness, obsession, and fragile brilliance behind Coppola's final epic. What you're about to discover is not just the making of a film-it's the unraveling of a man locked in battle with time itself. - The hidden truth behind Coppola's decades-long obsession-and why he refused to let the dream die. - The chaos on set: rewrites, clashes, exhaustion, and moments of unexpected genius. - How family, fortune, and legacy all hung in the balance as cameras rolled. - Why the behind-the-scenes documentary may outlive the movie itself. Few people know the full story. Fewer still have seen it told with such raw honesty. This is not Hollywood myth-it is the true account of a final gamble that blurred the line between art and self-destruction. Why does this matter now? Because Coppola's story is more than cinema-it's a mirror for anyone who has ever chased a dream others called impossible. It's about the price of obsession, the fragility of time, and the stubborn courage to risk everything for one last masterpiece. Was it genius? Was it madness? Or was it both? Ready to uncover the truth behind Coppola's last great gamble? Get your copy today and step inside the chaos of Megalopolis.
