Representative of late-period Coppola in just about every way: ostentatious visual display (this >> 𝘙𝘰𝘮𝘢 >> 𝘕𝘦𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘴𝘬𝘢 >> 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘈𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘵), uneven and often nonsensically crammed narrative (even if it does [beneficially, this time] lack the ambitious delirium of 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘩 𝘞𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘩), underwhelming coda, and an emphasis on weird + sprawling conversations over all else. The final act crumbles mostly, but otherwise found this to be quite enchanting. There's something about watching Vincent Gallo act that's just so magnetizing, I couldn't look away - the dude is crazy good in this (even if you still can't convince me him and Edward Norton are different people). Took me a bit to really get a feel for the fierce lancing of overly-pretentious, dickheaded artists rather than the worship of them as I initially gauged - as well as this just being a rock-solid story of art and family dynamics (helluva twist too [if underplayed], and the segments where trauma is expressed through stage productions are 👌👌). Wish it rebounded in the end but nonetheless it's compelling in spite of its flaws.
