Francis Ford Coppola had written the outline for The Conversation in 1966, but couldn't get financing until The Godfather (1972) became a huge success. Francis Ford Coppola was once quoted as saying The Conversation was his personal favourite of all the movies he ever made. Gene Hackman (who learned to play the sax for this film) felt this was his best acting in a movie.
