Jack is a very touching film, especially for Francis Ford Coppola, acclaimed director of The Godfather (1972) and Apocalypse Now(1979). The film was not particularly successful, but was nominated for five minor awards. Although at first glance one might think these two films to be very much alike because of the similar conditions of the two protagonists, a closer look suggests otherwise. Josh and Jack undergo very different metamorphoses and live in very different settings.
