Tucker is the best Capra movie since Capra quit making them himself. [12 Aug 1988]
Stylistically, the film is a dream. But in every case, the style has a reason. [12 Aug 1988]
The late '40s world Coppola has put together for Tucker is an extremely stylized one: Vittorio Storaro's cinematography has the bright, hard, almost lacquered look of old Technicolor; Dean Tavoularis' sets, built with slanting floors and surfaces, create an imaginary, compacted space in which actors and objects seem to be thrusting out toward the camera; and the transitions between scenes, based on visual rhymes and elaborate wipes, effectively remove the movie from the orderly flow of normal film time. [12 Aug 1988]

An excellent Coppola film and maybe the best film about the car industry. Bridges is great.
