REVIEW
In Coppola's brilliant crime saga, the director transformed the lowly gangster drama into an American epic capable of rivaling the western. From the wedding of Connie Corleone, to the end of her brother Michael's marriage, The Godfather is richly imbued with the texture of life, the allure of power and the basic corruptness of capitalism. Add to this the sheer visceral pleasure of watching top actors giving superlative performances and you've got one of the masterpieces of American cinema. Brando salvaged his career as the ruthless Don Corleone, and Pacino became a star playing his son Michael. Truly an all-star cast. (Followed by 2 sequels)
