The Conversation<\/a><\/em> is Francis Ford Coppola<\/a>‘s intense study of Harry Caul (Gene Hackman<\/a>), a surveillance expert who tapes a conversation shared by a young couple in San Francisco’s Union Square.

John Cazale<\/a>, Allen Garfield<\/a>, Frederic Forrest<\/a>, Cindy Williams<\/a>, Teri Garr<\/a>, Harrison Ford<\/a>, and Robert Duvall<\/a> also star in this stunning Watergate Era effort.<\/p>\n
