With each passing decade the stature of The Godfather" grows not just among film buffs but also among audiences throughout the world discovering or re-viewing the film on television & DVD. In repeated polls Coppolas masterpiece is ranked among the two or three greatest films ever brought to the screen. This saga of an Italian-American family & its immersion in Mafia traditions has been imitated & satirised
- but never equalled. How to explain the enduring appeal of " The Godfather" & its two sequels? This book concentrates on the elements that combined against all odds to make the Paramount production so successful when it appeared in 1972: the screenplay from Mario Puzos bestselling novel; a cast of actors who apart from Marlon Brando had not yet achieved celebrity; the vivid locations in New York & Sicily; & the inspired direction of Francis Ford Coppola (only 31 years old when shooting commenced). Containing many previously unseen behind-the-scene images from the Paramount Archives this book is also unique in containing over 15 facsimile documents."
