• Francis Ford Coppola : You know what my grandfather, Francesco Penino, once told me about Italy?

  Gordy Willis : [sighs]  I bet we're gonna find out.

  Francis Ford Coppola : He was a composer. And he told me that when he emigrated to America that he missed home like crazy. And when he finally got to come back, it was like picking up an old, beloved instrument that he hadn't played in a really long time. Yeah, at first it was a little out of tune, but then when he started playing it, all the notes became familiar again. For me, it's like I'm-I'm hearing these notes for the first time.
