|
ONE FROM THE HEART is Francis Ford Coppola's ambitious and intensely stylized musical about a working-class couple living in Las Vegas. On the eve of their five-year anniversary, Frannie (Teri Garr) and Hank (Frederic Forrest) find themselves breaking up. Hank meets a circus performer (Nastassja Kinski), while Frannie accepts the attentions of a would-be lounge singer (Raul Julia). Tom Waits wrote the music for the movie and performed it with Crystal Gayle, and the renowned Vittorio Storaro (APOCALYPSE NOW, THE LAST EMPEROR) provided stunning photography.

"...Yet another innovative, audacious effort from the director of THE GODFATHER and APOCALYPSE NOW..." -- Janet Maslin , (New York Times) "ONE FROM THE HEART belongs on the top shelf with Coppola's triumphs rather than in his back drawer of oddities." -- Kent Jones , (Film Comment) "[With] visuals to die for....[And] Garr's best lead performance." -- Mike Clark , (USA Today) "Making this underappreciated 1982 musical, Francis Ford Coppola developed prototypes for many of the state-of-the-art filmmaking devices used today." -- Doug Pratt , (Rolling Stone) "This hyper-real Vegas is dizzying to behold, its colour wheel spun by the music's bitter-sweetness..." -- Chris Roberts , (Uncut)
