Coppola Slams Reports Of Tetro Production Problems
Vincent Gallo and Alden Ehrenreich in Tetro (2009)
Director Francis Ford Coppola has blasted reports alleging production on his new movie Tetro has been shut down.

Production on the film, which is set in Argentina, was rumoured to have been brought to a halt last week (ends23May08), after representatives of the Asociacion Argentina de Actores (Argentina Actors Association, Aaa) claimed union members in the movie had been working without a contract.

They went on to allege that Coppola's production company Zoetrope Argentina had been given opportunities to correct the contractual issues, which they claim have been a problem since shooting commenced in March.

Aaa spokesman Daniel Valenzuela tells the Hollywood Reporter: "At the moment, they are not filming because the contracts have (not) arrived to the union. On Tuesday, the union gave them 48 hours to present the documents and they didn't do that, so we took this action."

But Coppola's representative, Kathleen Talbert, has dismissed the claims, insisting there have been no delays in the film's production.

She says, "There are no holds on shooting, no problem with actors. In fact, the majority of the Argentine actors have already wrapped the shooting."

Coppola's semi-autobiographical screenplay follows the life of an artistic family in modern-day Argentina and stars actress Carmen Maura, Vincent Gallo and Maribel Verdu.
