Note sull'episodio
In 1974, Francis Ford Coppola released The Conversation — a quiet, unsettling film about a man who hears too much and feels too little. At first glance, it’s a story about surveillance. But beneath the microphones and tape machines lies something far more human: guilt, loneliness, and the desperate need to stay unseen.
In this episode, we step inside the private world of Harry Caul — a surveillance expert haunted by the sounds he captures and the silence he can’t escape. We explore the film’s key themes, its haunting sound design, and its eerie foresight into our digital age — when we all became both watchers and the watched.
