Hearts of Darkness (Ever?)
#2
on the IFC show Dinner for Five, George Hickenlooper explained why it's being held up. Apparently Coppola doesn't like some of his footage the way it appears, and wants Hickenlooper to put it in context.
Specifically the scene where, after Martin Sheen has a heart attack, Coppola says, "Marty's not dead 'til I say he's dead!"
The good news is, is that it sounds like it is in the works. I hope they don't change too much of it to soften Francis' image.

Coppola supported the "warts and all" film. However, there is more to that story about the heart attack than is shown in the film. Apparently (if memory serves) Coppla new he was ok and was simply saying lets stop the rumours from even starting.
He had the right to kill the film but didn't.
Would love to see Keitel in Sheen's part.
