Francis Ford Coppola isn’t exactly the first person that comes to mind when one mentions talking smack but that’s kinda what the legendary filmmaker did in a recent issue of GQ. He had some choice words for Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro and Jack Nicholson. Here’s a little taste of what he had to say: “I don’t know what any of them want anymore. I don’t know that they want the same things. Pacino always wanted to do theater…(He) will say, ‘Oh, I was raised next to a furnace in New York, and I’m never going to go to L.A.,’ but they all live off the fat of the land.” Whoa, them’s fighting words. We don’t usually traffic in gossipy items around here but hearing The Coppola kinda talk a little smack about iconic actors he’s presumably friends with? That’s a little too weird and surprising to pass up. Read the rest of what he had to say HERE.
