For my first post I thought i'd write you a review about my favorite film, the godfather, I find this film incredible.A brilliant film directed by the unknown at the time Francis Ford Cappola. The film tells the story of Vito Courlione, Godfather of the Courlione family mafia. Vito, having three sons; the youngest Micheal Courlione, the only son who does not wan't any part in the "family buissness", quickly changes his mind when his father is brutally shot 6 times in the back for refusing a drug deal. Micheal's heart turns to anger, by then killing the two men responsible for the shooting of his father. Years later, Micheal in Italy, hiding from punishment, finds it is time to go back when trouble has once again threatened the Courlione name. With Micheal's brother sharing the fate of his father, Micheal knows it is time for him to fill his fathers place. Now a ruthless leader, Micheal eliminates practically every Gang leader in New York during a baptism. Fear & high respect brings new meaning to the Courlione name. From the beautifully filmed wedding, to the gangs in the street, this is thought by many to be the greatest film of all time. Filled with Drama, Suspence and Action, this film deserved the Best Picture Award of 1972. This film is mistaken to be a gangster movie by many people, but the story was more about family then the actual "family buissness".
