    Maybe if the trailer didn’t tell you how great and misunderstood Coppola and his works have been and how stupid people were for panning them when they came out, more people would have been compelled to see it. Not that it was pretentious, just arrogant to say hey come watch this this sure fire masterpiece. Also it looks like politics mixed with Inception so maybe too much for people to bother right now? Having said all that I would like to see it, just don’t need to go to the theater for this one.

      Having said all that I would like to see it, just don’t need to go to the theater for this one.

      From what little I’ve heard, there’s a 4th-wall-breaking scene that involves one of the characters interacting with an audience member (the theater apparently has someone come in and participate). So if nothing else, I guess you could see it in theaters for the novelty?

        Ah, so from what I’m reading it’s confusing now, but will be more confusing at home with a broken 4th wall break segment.

        I think that was just in Cannes or something.

        Edit: It seems I’m wrong! Basically it’s up to the cinema to include it, but it doesn’t change all that much. I had my information from reading a review by a reviewer who thought he had witnessed something completely unique.

        My theater didn’t do that. There was one segment that was framed a bit differently, which I suspect is where the interaction would have been, but it played more like a short press conference and had no interaction.

        This most certainly did not happen in my viewing. I am now curious what scene this would have been or if it was just cut out.

        If you want masterclass 4th Wall, Watch Fleabag. Great series

      Also, if your paraphrasing is accurate and we’re not playing a game of telephone here, regardless of how past experiences were later treated that’s kinda like saying “you’ll probably hate this unless you’re the kind of person who’ll still only appreciate it once a few critics tell you to in a few years.”
