The Conversation
1974
****
Director: Francis Ford Coppola
Cast: Gene Hackman, John Gazale, Allen Garfield, Frederic Forrest
A wonderful character study about a paranoid surveillance expert who gets a taste of his own medicine. Coppola filmed this personal gem between the first two Godfather episodes. Gene Hackman gives a great performance in the lead. Harrison Ford appears in a small role.
