He made some of the most influential movies of our time — The Godfather, The Godfather: Part II and Apocalypse Now. And he’s never gotten enough credit for films such as One From the Heart, Rumble Fish, The Rainmaker and his fabulous, little-seen late ’60s movies The Rain People and You’re a Big Boy Now.

He’s Francis Ford Coppola, and Emerging Cinemas in Lake Worth is paying tribute to the master this weekend through Thursday with an intriguing double bill of Coppola then and now. Better yet, they are two films written by Coppola.

First is The Conversation, Coppola’s brilliant study of a ’70s wiretapper (Gene Hackman) who stumbles upon a murder. Then comes Tetro, Coppola’s latest film, starring Vincent Gallo, about two brothers and the passions and conflicts that rule an Italian-Argentine family.
