The Godfather
The Godfather is a 1972 American epic gangster film directed by Francis Ford Coppola, who wrote the screenplay with Mario Puzo, based on Puzo's 1969 novel. It is the first part of a trilogy about the Corleone crime family, headed by the patriarch Don Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando). In the mid-1940s his youngest son Michael (Al Pacino) is back from the Second World War. At the wedding of his sister Connie he introduces his girlfriend Kay Adams to the family and makes it clear that he wants no part in the family business, while Vito, following the Sicilian tradition, grants favours to guests on his daughter's wedding day. The film follows how Michael, the son who kept his distance, changes. James Caan, Robert Duvall, Diane Keaton, Richard Castellano and Sterling Hayden are also in the cast. Paramount Pictures bought the rights to the novel; filming took place mainly in New York City and Sicily, and Nino Rota wrote the score. It premiered on 14 March 1972 and won three Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Actor for Brando and Best Adapted Screenplay for Puzo and Coppola. It is regarded as one of the greatest films ever made and was followed by The Godfather Part II (1974) and The Godfather Part III (1990).
