* PracticalEffects: Creator/FrancisFordCoppola was adamant that every effect seen in the film was done in-camera. He and his son, Roman, worked hard to use pretty much every trick in the book (model work, forced perspective, projection, multi-exposure, reversed shot, etc.) to achieve this goal. Coppola even went so far as to shoot scenes with an antique, hand-cranked Pathé camera to get an uneven, stuttering effect that was impossible to achieve with modern film cameras.
