When a surveillance expert is hired to eavesdrop on a young couple’s private conversation, he suspects they’re in danger – and that he might be the cause.

Gene Hackman and Harrison Ford star in Francis Ford Coppola’s gripping psychological thriller, with a standout sound collage by Walter Murch, the ‘Godfather’ of modern sound design.

‘The Conversation perfectly encapsulates the disaffection, alienation, and paranoia infecting America’s body politic in the era of Watergate.’ – Slant Magazine.
