Francis Ford Coppola aimed to revive interest in his film Megalopolis by hosting a two-hour audience engagement at the Palace of Fine Arts Theatre. He presented ten crucial societal topics for discussion, but only managed to cover half. The event was marked by dwindling audience attendance as over half of the attendees left before it ended. Despite its potential for cult status, Megalopolis struggled with critical reception and box office performance, thus making the revival efforts feel more about Coppola's self-defense than about galvanizing a dedicated fan base.
In an ambitious bid to revive interest in his critically panned film Megalopolis, Francis Ford Coppola attempted to change societal perceptions through an unconventional two-hour audience engagement.
The approach included listing ten societal topics but ultimately fell short, with Coppola only addressing half, causing many attendees to leave before completion.
