Tetro
Tetro is writer/director Francis Ford Coppola's first original screenplay since 1974's The Conversation. It is his most personal film yet, arising from memories and emotions from his early life, though totally fictional. When Bennie (Alden Ehrenreich) finds his long-estranged brother Tetro (Vincent Gallo) living in Buenos Aires, he discovers that his sibling, once a brilliant writer, is now tormented and self-destructive. A bittersweet story of two brothers, of family lost and found and the conflicts and secrets within a highly creative Argentine-Italian family, the drama co-stars Klaus Maria Brandauer, Maribel Verdú and Carmen Maura.
