Las Vegas set at Zoetrope Studios

Feb. 4, 1981: Director Francis Coppola, head of the financially troubled Zoetrope Studios, conducts a news conference on a set re-creating downtown Las Vegas.

One of my last From the Archives posts went live this morning. Coppola conducted a press conference on the set of "One From the Heart." The movie, set in Las Vegas, bombed. Zoetrope Studios was sold.
