Let's also not forget that FFC also seems to think getting paid a day rate to be an extra is a form of sex work.
What a weird career capper this is all turning out to be.
This is only semi-related, but I love that his nephew changed his name from Nicolas Coppola to Nicolas Cage because he wanted to be taken seriously as an actor and not just getting jobs because of who his uncle was.
And then his first film under that name was Valley Girl, which very strangely had a bunch of people who were in Coppola films in the cast.
Oh, and then his first big role was in Peggy Sue Got Married, directed by... Francis Ford Coppola.
That reminds me of Drew Barrymore getting her "start" as a wide-eyed moppet in ET, but also with a 200-year family history as prominent actors, including close associations with the Booth family. Not really that anybody was trying to be particularly sneaky, just funny.
At some level, having parents in the trade gives you access to education and experience that your peers aren't going to have. And that's fine. Just wish people wouldn't pretend this is an aberration in an industry that's dummy thick with nepotism.
Yeah, she’s never even attempted to hide being a Barrymore. Nic Cage, not so much. Which is funny, because the rest of the Coppola clan apparently have no problem making movies and releasing them via American Zoetrope, Francis Ford Coppola’s own company, under their real names.
Well, when an 85 year old rich man who is used to doing whatever they want pay people to be topless, I’m not shocked they feel they can do whatever they want 🤷♂️
