In Francis Ford Coppola's critically acclaimed thriller, nothing is as it seems. Harry Caul (Hackman) is a lonely surveillance expert who has been sent to wiretap a seemingly innocent meeting between two lovers in San Francisco’s Union Square. But when Caul reviews the tapes, he wonders if he may be putting the couple in danger. Nominated for Best Picture in 1975 (an award which Coppola lost to himself for The Godfather Part II), this Watergate era film—newly restored on 35mm—is still eerily haunting today.
