Thieves snag 'Tetro' script from Coppola HQ

September 28, 2007 The office of Zoetrope Argentina, director Francis Ford Coppola's newly formed production company, was robbed Wednesday evening. According to local reports, five armed thieves entered the building and took cameras and computers, including Coppola's personal laptop, which contained drafts of the screenplay for "Tetro," his upcoming film slated to begin production in Buenos Aires next year. The Oscar-winning director opened the new production shingle earlier this year, which is housed in a million-dollar mansion in the trendy Palermo neighborhood of Buenos Aires.
