FWIW, It's even more apparent in Italian cinema because it was standard practice to overdub all dialogue after the fact
What's more, Coppola was (for obvious reasons) highly influenced by Italian cinema and frequently hired Italian crew members on his films. I'm not sure if he had started working with his Italian crew at this point in his career but that might explain it. It's also possible that he simply wanted to try utilizing traditional Italian methods. I would be surprised if he doesn't touch upon this in his audio commentaries, by the way. He has been very detailed in discussing nearly every aspect of his films' production.
