Another bad apple fell from the Coppola family. I was watching the movie, and I couldn't believe how pointless it is. I couldn't care less for the characters and what will become of them. They were completely hollow.
If a 15 year old made this movie, I'd tell him/her "good job for a start". Because it resembles to a movie, at least. But a 27 year old? And the granddaughter of one of the greatest American directors of the second half of the 20th century? No way. If I was him, I'd disinherit her the second after the movie ended! She's a poor version of her aunt, Sophia. Who is one of the most overrated directors ever. But at least "The Virgin Suicides" had something to say. "Palo Alto" said nothing at all. The movie ended, and I couldn't believe how someone gave the "green light" to be made... Well, I guess that someone was James Franco!

I echo your sentiment about the Coppolas. What bloody planet are they on?
I truly believe they just make films for themselves and a few select friends.

Proof of what you say is "Twixt". I can not conceive that this movie was made by Francis Ford Coppola, and I can't understand why he made this rubbish. Even if making it for himself, he could have made something better, like "Tetro", which, ok, it looks like a movie. "Twixt" looks like it was made by a completely untalented bad director on drugs. :p
