Megalopolis (2024)

Francis Ford Coppola's long-gestating passion project imagines an architect reshaping a decaying American city into a utopia. The result is a sprawling, divisive epic unlike anything else in 2024. Aubrey Plaza brings her signature unpredictable edge to the chaos as a scheming television anchor. Nathalie Emmanuel, Chloe Fineman, and Grace Vanderwaal round out an ambitious ensemble chasing Coppola's strange vision. Six scenes collected here span nude, topless, and sex scene material pulled straight from the film. Emmanuel ventures into notably stripped-down territory that pushes past the film's usual restraint. The footage adds real heat to an already operatic sweep. Megalopolis remains bold and argued-over, unafraid to bare it all in service of its wildest ideas.
