Coppola's stuck in a past way of thinking that provides the absolute worst part of what is otherwise a potential masterpiece.

I loved the visual and technical artistry in Megalopolis, and outside of plot and dialogue, it IS a masterpiece.

Overall, it's a mess.

There is a quote in Megadoc that rightly notes that movies are visual art.

As that, Megalopolis succeeds.

There are a couple of clips and quotes, along with a bit of the monologue towards the end, that highlight where Megalopolis ultimately fails: Coppola's grand notion of throwing out the old, stale notions of the past are betrayed by his dialogue informed by his beliefs which are now literally the old, stale notions he mistakenly thinks he's destroying.

Megadoc is available to stream for free in the U.S. with a valid library card from a system that provides the Kanopy service.

It's a good documentary on the making of Megalopolis that further confirms my opinion that the movie is, and will eventually be considered, a beautiful love letter to the art form, despite its gaping flaws.

I saw Megalopolis in 15/70 IMAX and loved the experience.

The dialogue, plot, editing, and philosophy of "let's get along with fascists", are a mess, but his visual artistry is astounding, and he included many little touches paying homage to the history of the art form.

I believe this will be considered a "rediscovered" masterpiece someday.

The "making of" now playing:
