==Awards and honors== {{main|List of awards and nominations received by Francis Ford Coppola}} For ''The Godfather Part II'' and ''The Conversation'', Coppola was the third director to have two nominations for Best Picture in the same year. [[Victor Fleming]] was the first, with ''[[Gone with the Wind (film)|Gone with the Wind]]'' and [[The Wizard of Oz (1939 film)|''The Wizard of Oz'']] in 1939; [[Alfred Hitchcock]] repeated the feat the next year with ''[[Foreign Correspondent (film)|Foreign Correspondent]]'' and [[Rebecca (1940 film)|''Rebecca'']]. Since Coppola, two other directors have done the same: [[Herbert Ross]] with ''[[The Goodbye Girl]]'' and ''[[The Turning Point (1977 film)|The Turning Point]]'' in 1977 and [[Steven Soderbergh]] with ''[[Erin Brockovich (film)|Erin Brockovich]]'' and ''[[Traffic (2000 film)|Traffic]]'' in 2000. He is one of ten directors to receive the Palme d'Or twice, for ''The Conversation'' and ''Apocalypse Now''. On October 15, 2024, after having received the statue of the Capitoline Wolf, Rome's highest honor, a street in the same capital city was named after him as a further sign of the connection between the filmmaker and the city.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.wantedinrome.com/news/rome-honours-francis-ford-coppola.html | title=Rome honours Francis Ford Coppola | date=October 15, 2024 }}</ref> In 2024, he was honored by the [[Kennedy Center]].<ref name=KennedyCenter/> Introducing him, his friend [[George Lucas]] said: “What Francis does creatively is jump off cliffs.
