Synopsis:
Based on the bestselling novel by Mario Puzo (who co-wrote the screenplay
with director Francis Ford Coppola), THE GODFATHER tells an epic tale of Mafia
life in America during the 1940s and '50s. Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando) is the
family patriarch balancing a love of his family with an ambitious criminal
instinct. At the wedding of the Don's daughter, Connie (Talia Shire), youngest
son Michael (Al Pacino) is reunited with his family. A subsequent assassination
attempt leaves the Don too ill to run the family business, forcing Michael and
Sonny (James Caan), with the help of consigliere, Tom Hagen (Robert Duvall), to
lead the Corleones into a vendetta-filled war with other mob families. Violent
revenge ensues as the family tries to change from its old criminal ways into
legitimacy. Coppola's certified masterpiece, which won three Oscars (including
Best Picture) and spawned an Oscar-winning sequel (THE
GODFATHER PART II), set a new screen standard for merging blood-soaked
violence with intimate family drama. In the process, Coppola single-handedly
established the Mafia as an industry in film and television (GOODFELLAS, THE
SOPRANOS). Featuring truly unforgettable performances, including the Best
Actor-winning Brando, the riveting Pacino, and an unexpectedly dramatic Diane
Keaton, THE GODFATHER is the pinnacle of Hollywood cinema in the 1970s.
