In The Conversation—the 1974 conspiracy thriller/psychodrama from writer/director Francis Ford Coppola—we follow the story of Harry Caul, the greatest surveillance technician in the world. Caul has been hired to clandestinely record a conversation for a mysterious corporate client—but that conversation ends up having lethal implications. So, what did Coppola know about the surveillance state, and what does this half-century old film have to teach us about the electronic panopticon that exists around us in 2026? Joining us to dissect this New Hollywood-era classic is Antony Rotunno, the host of the Film Gold podcast.
