The Conversation directed by Francis Ford Coppola focuses on surveillance and privacy. The central character of Harry Caul works as a for-hire electronic surveillance expert who is compulsively concerned with his own privacy. This is evident in various points of the film‚ such as when Harry does not give anyone his telephone number and when the camera tilts along his doorway as he unlocks the multiple locks on his door.
