[01] Francis Ford Coppola in Athens
Award-winning film director Francis Ford Coppola received the medal of
the City of Athens from Athens Mayor Nikitas Kaklamanis on Friday. "A
few years ago I decided that I wanted to continue my cinema career
making more personal films, with my scenarios on modern issues, such as
the 'Tetro'," he said in an interview, during which he said that he did
not want to become rich and famous and that from a very young age he
had distanced himself from the "Hollywood system". Coppola said he was
optimistic about the future of the cinema, adding that cinema will
change considerably due to technical developments but he believed that
the outcome will be very good. (ANA-MPA / STR)
