COPPOLA WEEK continues!  Fifty years ago sandwiched between his two multiple Oscar-winning masterpieces of The Godfather and The Godfather Part II, Francis Ford Coppola finally had studio support to write and direct this passion project which he had been working on since the mid '60's.  The story focuses on Harry - a surveillance expert played by Oscar-winner Gene Hackman - who has recorded a mysterious tape of a couple he was assigned to "bug" and hears something concerning on it which sets the plot in motion.  The story delves deeply into Harry's mindset as he eventually finds himself in danger....but from whom?  This now iconic paranoia thriller was nominated for three Oscars including Best Picture and features a stacked cast surrounding Hackman including Cindy Williams, John Cazale, Robert Duvall, Frederic Forest, Teri Garr, and a pretty young Harrison Ford.
