This trilogy, based on the bestselling novel by Mario Puzo, is without a shadow of a doubt the twentieth century’s greatest film saga. The story chronicles an American-Sicilian family’s rise and near fall from power and the passing of that power from father to son.
’The Godfather’ - Francis Ford Coppola’s epic masterpiece features Oscar winner Marlon Brando as the patriarch of the Corleone family. Coppola paints a chilling portrait of a Sicilian family’s rise and near fall from power in America, and the passage of rites from father to son. He masterfully balances the story between family life and the ugly business of crime in which they are engaged. Based on Mario Puzo’s best-selling novel, this graphic and brilliant film garnered the Oscar for Best Picture in 1972.
’The Godfather Part II’ - Upon its release ’The Godafther Part II’ was hailed as the best sequel to a movie ever made, however this film is much more than that. Coppolla utilised a quite brilliant screenplay and turned it into a visually captivating treat, as well as using his directorial skills to make the audience view the rise and demise of the ill-fated Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) as first-person participants, with masterful skill.
Add to this an astounding performance by Pacino and an Oscar-winning portrayal of Vito Corleone by Robert De Niro, and you quite simply have the quintessential mob movie. Winner of 6 Academy Awards.
’The Godfather Part III’ - One of the greatest sagas in movie history concludes! In this, the third epic film of the Corleones, Al Pacino reprises his role of powerful family leader Micheal Corleone. Now in his sixties, Micheal is dominated by two passions: freeing his family from crime and finding a suitable successor...
That successor could be fiery Vincent (Andy Garcia), but he may also be the spark that turns Michael’s hopes of business legitimacy into an inferno of mob violence.
Francis Ford Coppola directs Pacino, Andy Garcia, Diane Keaton, Talia Shire, Eli Wallach, Sofia Coppola, Joe Mantegna among others in this final chapter of the Godfather saga that masterfully explores the themes of power, tradition, revenge and love.
