Coppola film stolen

Movie pirates are really stepping up their game. Rather than rip movies from faulty projectors or lame stolen studio DVD's, they're going straight to the source. A band of would be film pirates recently broke into Francis Ford Coppola's home in Argentina, where he's prepping his upcoming film TETRO, and stole his laptop which of course contained the work he's currently done on TETRO and possibly what should be some relatively finished work on his other upcoming film YOUTH WITHOUT YOUTH. Hey, if studios intend on cracking down on pirates then pirates aren't gonna sit back and take it. They're gonna fight back! Watch out, studios, they're coming for ya.

Extra Tidbit: TETRO, unfortunately, isn't scheduled for release until 2009.

pirates

the 'pirates' bit was a joke, not to be taken literally.

I think it's funny how the guy got his laptop stolen, and Hollywood try to make it sound that it's pirates. I mean, seriously, how many houses get broken into in Argentina... But no this HAS to be pirates... Pathetic
