Nu degeaba a ajuns Coppola prin Romania ...

and i quote:

After an 8-year absence where he's been busy concentrating on producing projects, Francis Ford Coppola is finally back in the director's chair. Interestingly enough, it's not a big studio picture either. It's a self-financed indie adaptation of Romanian author Mircea Eliade's YOUTH WITHOUT YOUTH. The story, which Coppola adapted himself, revolves around "a professor whose life changes after a cataclysmic incident during the dark years before WWII. Becoming a fugitive, he is pursued through far-flung locations including Romania, Switzerland, Malta and India." Since his last directorial outing, 1997's THE RAINMAKER, Coppola had apparently become jaded with the excessive "gangster" films he was being offered and wasn't interested in directing and this latest project is a "return to the ambitions I had for work in cinema as a student." Production is scheduled to begin October 3rd in Bucharest.
