Not another human being has seen this film: Coppola's Youth Without Youth
Francis Ford Coppola put up about $20 million or so of his own dosh to shoot his new Youth Without Youth "with, for once, zero interference from studio executives and other finance types," writes ChiTrib's Marc Caro. "As he spoke on the phone 
Wednesday from his Napa Valley, Calif., home, he was about to view the movie with its sound mix in place for the first time. This week it will become "the totally finished movie." He hasn't shown it to anybody, and subsequently it has no distributor. "Part of the philosophy of this is that a movie is a different thing when it's finished and has all of its elements.. so after the 22nd, we'll start deciding the best people to deal with. But not another human being has seen the film." [The feature's site is here, including photos of Old Bucharest and a crew list consisting almost entirely of Romanians.]
