    A real treat in this episode of STUDIOCANAL Presents, as regular host Simon Brew is joined by Academy Award winner Walter Murch to talk about the 1974 classic The Conversation. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, The Conversation was the movie he made between the first two Godfather films, and for actor Gene Hackman, he called it one of his favourite roles.
