Director Francis Ford Coppola has been honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. It is the 2715th plaque on the famous sidewalk.
50 years after the cinema debut of “The Godfather”, US director Francis Ford Coppola (82) has been immortalized with a star plaque in Hollywood. On the “Walk of Fame”, the Oscar winner unveiled the plaque with his name in front of cheering fans.
Coppola was awarded the 2715th star on the famous sidewalk. The director of global hits like “Apocalypse Now” and “The Godfather” trilogy brought several family members to the ceremony. He thanked his wife and colleague Eleanor Coppola (85), with whom he had been married for almost 60 years, the filmmaker emphasized.
He wanted to be brief in his acceptance speech, said Coppola in front of the camera flash. He is very grateful for the award. Who wouldn’t be happy to see their own name immortalized next to such “wonderful people”. The director referred to the many filmmakers with a star on the tourist mile.
Actresses Elle Fanning (23) and Talia Shire (75), Coppola’s younger sister, were invited as guest speakers.
