Video emerges of Francis Ford Coppola kissing female extras on set

The film-maker has been accused of acting inappropriately on the set of his self-funded sci-fi epic Megalopolis

Videos have emerged of director Francis Ford Coppola trying to kiss female extras on the set of his new film Megalopolis.

Variety obtained footage of the film-maker taken by a crew member during a nightclub scene on set last year. The Guardian had originally reported that the 85-year-old was seen as “old school” in his behaviour around women while shooting, pulling women to sit on his lap and kissing extras to get “them in the mood”.
