Tarantino

Dropping by the Produced By Conference earlier this month, the director revealed (via Variety) that he was writing "a multi-generational saga about an Italian American family not unlike his own." So, a return to the kind of storytelling that anchored "The Godfather"? It kinda sounds like it. Back in 2012, Coppola shared details of a project he was working on at the time, one that he said he was nearly ready to start shooting. "My story is set in New York. I have a first draft. I’m really ready for a casting phase," he said. "Movies are big in proportion to the period. It starts in the middle of the ‘20s, and there are sections in the ‘30s and the late ‘40s, and it goes until the late ‘60s."

thats such awesome news. Really LOVED the 3 films he made in the past 7-8 years. Its been about 4 years with no real news of a new project so I was starting to worry that since he was financing these films himself and none of them really made any money or found much of an audience, that he might have given up on that sort of thing. Hopefully this new project happens. Big Coppola fan.

Wow, he's doing a movie about the 7 Santini Brothers!

A true multi-generational Italian-American epic if ever there was one:





Too bad Hal Needham's no longer around to do the second unit direction of the trucking scenes.
