(1972)
Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James Caan, Robert Duvall, Talia Shire, John Cazale, Diane Keaton
Celebrating his daughter's wedding, the aging mafia Don Vito Corleone (Brando) is a master of the old way of thinking. Everything comes down to respect and family. All of his children are involved in some way in the family mafia business apart from his beloved son Michael. Michael has just returned from war with his girlfriend Kay (Keaton) and shows no intention of joining his father. However, through a set of horrendous circumstances, Michael becomes far more embroiled than he would like to have been. A rival of Vito's wants to begin to sell drugs in New York and need's Vito's influence. Old world thinking and new world values will clash bringing a terrible price for all.
I absolutly loved the film. The music was fantastic and absolutly heartbreaking at some points. The performances are all fantastic....and it's cliche but Brando is just heartbreaking.....Pacino and Keaton have a great chemistry. and James Caan as the wayward Sonny is amazing to watch.
I recommend it to all :)
