Abstract

DOMINIC POWER Well, the movie’s also a beautiful love story and a mystery of a kind. I’ve tried to build the story so that people don’t have to immediately occupy themselves with this examination of consciousness. But then later, seeing the film again, if they want to consider it from that perspective, they can and they’ll discover additional dimensions to the story. That’s the kind of movie I like to make: one that gives more as people give more of themselves to it. Francis Ford Coppola Interview Cinefantastique December 23, 2007. Sometimes I admit to myself that it is possible that I will never be able to finish my life’s work. Dominic Matei Youth without Youth. Youth Without Youth marked Francis Ford Coppola’s return to filmmaking after a hiatus of ten years; his previous film, The Rainmaker (2007), a wellreceived version of John Grisham’s legal thriller, was a skilful entertainment which, for all its many pleasures, contained little of the identity of its maker. Youth Without Youth saw Coppola branching out into new territory – the film is a complex metaphysical conundrum based on the 1976 novella by the expatriate Romanian writer Mircea Eliade.
