Tiny movie review: "The Conversation", 1974, dir. Francis Ford Coppola
The movie he made after the Godfather.
It's OK, lots of it feels very dated - enough that that's kind of the interesting bit about it - but I wouldn't really recommend spending the time on it.
I forget where I saw a reference to it that made me interested in seeing it, might have been on here.
@vruba I forgot to mention that Kubrick seems to have taken a couple scenes from it, amped them up to 11, and come out with the Shining
No surprise that it scared the heck out of you! It comes out of nowhere
