Sofia Coppola's Dad /Jason Schwartzman's Uncle Makes Movies?
When Francis Ford Coppola isn't looking lovingly over his cineaste dynastic family, running a cafe, publishing fiction, or distilling making wine [sorry! we're not a vintner!], we understand that sometimes he makes movies too. Where does that guy find the time??
Anyways, for those of you who either admire multitasking or great American cinema, Francis Ford Coppola will be speaking this Saturday after the 7:20 screening of his new movie, Youth Without Youth at the Sundance Kabuki. YWY apparently creates a complicated plot involving a linguist, the nature of consciousness, trippy imagery, possible time travel, Nazis, and a great romance, such that even FFC says it'd probably be better for you to talk to him after you see the movie to try and figure it out.
Talk to Francis Ford Coppola? What a chance! Take him up on his offer! Can you refuse? (Extra bonus: maybe you'll get yourself cast in the next Sofia Coppola movie too! Or get a job at a North Beach cafe. Or meet Nicolas Cage's son Kal-El. Or get your short story optioned by Zoetrope. Or hear the band Coconut Records. Or sip some sparkling wine with a straw....)

you dont distill wine, unless you're making cognac.
wine is brewed, just like beer and sake.
Wine is fermented, not distilled.
Distilled wine is called brandy.
Jeez... it's still booze. Relax.
Wrong. Jesus makes wine, blasphemers.

And you should see what he can do with a little fish & bread. But, I digress.
Francis Ford Coppola once stepped on the back of my shoe and gave me a "flat tire". True story!
he also runs three resorts! don't forget that. I stayed at the Guat one once and it was pretty relaxing I must say... thankfully they served other wine as well.
Jesus runs resorts?

That reminds me of a joke: Jesus walks into the Golgatha Hilton, slaps 3 nails on the Concierge's desk and says, "Hey, can you put me up for the night?"
No?
Jesus runs resorts?
Yeah- but it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get reservations.
OK. That's all I've got. G'night. Please tip the waitress.

I hear that Heather Mills' estranged husband was in a band before Wings.
