Description

In 1980 Francis Coppola purchased the dilapidated Hollywood General Studios facility to create a radically new kind of studio, one that would revolutionize film-making and challenge the estabished studio machinery and allow him to make movies as he wished. With this event at the centre of "Whom God Wishes to Destroy", Jon Lewis offers a behind-the-scenes view of Coppola's struggle against the changing realities of the New Hollywood of the 1980s.
