quite odd. atmosphere is the right word. the financial failure almost guarantees Megalopolis is unique. id say its ripe for reevaluation in 10 years but good chance nobody really checks in out by 2034. Criterion might be able to give it a cult following?

i liked it a lot but was the only person in my tiny audience who seemed to genuinely enjoy it. other audience members couldnt help but talk about their confusion with each other afterward

it seemed like Coppola genuinely believed he could fix the world with the movie and spending any amount was worth it. instead we have an odd, artistic, and self-indulgent movie
