\"ConvPoster\"<\/a>Monday marked the 40th Anniversary<\/a>\u00a0of what I have long considered Francis Ford Coppola\u2019s best film (\u201cto date,\u201d Joseph says hopefully). A film which I now happily share with y\u2019all:\u00a0The Conversation<\/a><\/em>\u00a0is currently available from\u00a0NETFLIX INSTANT<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

I realize that\u2019s a bit of a controversial claim, given that the legendary\u00a0Godfathers<\/a><\/em> feature prominently in his filmography. But I can\u2019t help myself. It\u2019s far-and-away my favorite. And has been for years, since long before that opinion was cool. (What do you mean, \u201cIt\u2019s still not actually cool?\u201d\u00a0How dare you<\/a>!)<\/p>\n

Francis Ford Coppola follows The Godfather<\/em> with this intimate film about an audio surveillance expert who faces a moral quandary when he suspects that a couple whose conversation he\u2019s been hired to record will be murdered.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
