Such a classic! The mid 70s seemed like such a vintage year for great movies.

I wonder what led Coppola to cast Gene Hackman. Hackman is fantastic in this but it's so unlike any characters he had played before. I wonder if Coppola saw something specific that persuaded him that Hackman was right for the role.

Hello..... According to Francis Ford Coppola's autobiography, he originally had written the character of Harry Caul with Marlon Brando in mind to portray the role. However, Brando declined Coppola's offer to portray the role much to Coppola's dismay...... Therefore Gene Hackman was cast to portray the role of Harry Caul & the rest is history.....

@@johnjacobs5199 Thanks for your response. I'm glad Brando wasn't cast. I don't think he would have been right for it at all. Did Coppola explain why he chose Hackman?
