I "soft" watched The Conversation from 1974 (I was busy doing shit and had it on in the background...intended to actually watch but just got distracted with busy work). What I saw was awesome (John Cazale and Gene Hackman in the same movie directed by a prime Coppola is a winning combo). But even in 1974, Hackman looked about 65. He was an angry old bastard over 20 years before he was likely the appropriate age to play one.
