Two line Reviews - #39

Movie: The Conversation(1974)



Claps:
The flawless portrayal of the guilt driven surveillance workaholic Harry Caul by Gene Hackman.
The way Francis Ford Coppola builds the tempo & sustains the suspense.
The twist and the climax that ensues.

Blips:
The movie definitely had some non-events which could have been avoided.

Overall Score - 9.1/10

  2. I liked Hackman's acting but the non-events made the movie slow and really tested my patience
