According to Screen Daily, American Zoetrope will self-release Francis Ford Coppola’s Tetro on June 11. Today Coppola launched a website for Tetro, which he not only directed but wrote; it’s his first original screenplay since The Conversation in 1974. “The story tells of two brothers, of family lost and found, and the conflicts and tragedies within a highly creative Argentine-Italian family. Vincent Gallo stars in the title role alongside Maribel Verdu, Klaus Maria Brandauer, Carmen Maura and newcomer Alden Ehrenreich.”
Content on the website is scarce so far, but Coppola did self-direct a video introduction, which offers a little insight on the film and a few unfortunate angles accentuating the maestro’s chins and nostrils. Enjoy!
