The film world is buzzing about Francis Ford Coppola’s self-funded art piece, Megalopolis. With its high-concept sci-fi premise and ecclectic storytelling, this ambitious, star-studded affair has all the markers of a modern cult-classic. Genius artist Cesar Catilina (Adam Driver) seeks to leap the City of New Rome into a utopian, idealistic future, while his opposition, Mayor Franklyn Cicero (Giancarlo Esposito), remains committed to a regressive status quo, perpetuating greed, special interests, and partisan warfare. Torn between them is socialite Julia Cicero (Nathalie Emmanuel), the mayor’s daughter, whose love for Cesar has divided her loyalties, forcing her to discover what she truly believes humanity deserves.
