"Sofia Coppola: You Either Love Her or Hate Her. Here's Why."- Nathan Heller- Slate

I’m glad that White people are starting to turn on SoCo, just like everyone else did after Lost in Translation. The best part of Somewhere was all of the Cam’ron lines about Ferraris that I got to quote. And at least her movies used to look good; I thought Harris Savides was off his game too.

Really? We’re going to have to watch this Mexican dude sing all of “Teddy Bear”? You can’t cut away? If we didn’t see the figure skating routine in its entirety then the scene would be ruined? Coppola’s turning into the female Gus Van Sant—speaking of Savides collaborators—but at least Van Sant wants to involve you as a participant. She uses the same tricks but makes everything obvious.
