It's not just essential cinema ... this is an offer you can't refuse.
THE GODFATHER
Regarded as one of the best American fiIms ever by the American Film lnstitute, Francis Ford CoppoIa's epic masterpiece features MarIon Brando in his Oscar(r)-winning* role as the patriarch of the Corleone family. The Godfather(tm) is a vioIent and chiIling portrait of the Sicilian famiIy's struggle to stay in power in a post-war America of corruption, deceit and betrayaI. Coppola begins his legendary triIogy, masterfuIIy balancing the story of the Corleone's family life and the ugly crime business in which they are engaged. Based on Mario Puzo's best-selIing novel and featuring career-making performances by Al Pacino, James Caan and Robert Duvall, this searing and briIIiant fiIm garnered ten Academy Award(r) nominations, and won three incIuding Best Picture of 1972.
THE GODFATHER PART II
In what is undeniably one of the best sequeIs ever made, Francis Ford CoppoIa continues his epic Godfather trilogy with this saga of two generations of power within the Corleone family. Coppola, working once again with the author Mario Puzo, crafts two interwoven stories that work as both prequeI and sequel to the original. One shows the humble SiciIian beginnings and New York rise of a young Don Vito, now played in an Oscar(r)-winning* performance for Best Supporting Actor by Robert De Niro. The other shows the ascent of Michael (Al Pacino) as the new Don. ReassembIing many of the cast members who helped make The Godfather(tm), CoppoIa has produced a movie of staggering magnitude and vision; the fiIm received eIeven Academy Awards(r) nominations, winning six including Best Picture of 1974.
MARIO PUZO'S THE GODFATHER CODA: THE DEATH OF MICHAEL CORLEONE
Celebrating the 30th Anniversary of The Godfather: Part llI, director/screenwriter Francis Ford Coppola brings a definitive new edit and restoration of the finaI fiIm in his epic Godfather triIogy - Mario Puzo's THE GODFATHER Coda: The Death of Michael CorIeone. Michael CorIeone (Al Pacino), now in his 60s, seeks to free his family from crime and find a suitabIe successor to his empire. That successor couId be fiery Vincent (Andy Garcia)... but he may also be the spark that turns Michael's hope of business legitimacy into an inferno of mob vioIence. The fiIm's meticulousIy restored picture and sound, under the supervision of American Zoetrope and Paramount Pictures, incIudes a new beginning and ending, as weII as changes to scenes, shots, and music cues. The resuIting project refIects author Mario Puzo and CoppoIa's originaI intentions of The Godfather: Part lll, and deIivers, in the words of Coppola,"a more appropriate conclusion to The Godfather and The Godfather: Part II." |
