Als een maffia-patriarch nauwelijks aan de dood ontsnapt, grijpt de jongste zoon in om de daders aan te pakken
Onze opinie:
Gebaseerd op Mario Puzo’s boek is Francis Ford Coppola’s The Godfather zonder twijfel een van de beste maffiafilms ooit gemaakt. Superb verhaal, schitterend acteerwerk en een sfeerzetting van jewelste. Absolute top!

Director: Francis Ford CoppolaWriter: Mario Puzo, Francis Ford CoppolaStars: Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James CaanSummary: The Godfather "Don" Vito Corleone is the head of the Corleone mafia family in New York. He is at the event of his daughter's wedding. Michael, Vito's youngest son and a decorated WW II Marine is also present at the wedding. Michael seems to be uninterested in being a part of the family business. Vito is a powerful man, and is kind to all those who give him respect but is ruthless against those who do not. But when a powerful and treacherous rival wants to sell drugs and needs the Don's influence for the same, Vito refuses to do it. What follows is a clash between Vito's fading old values and the new ways which may cause Michael to do the thing he was most reluctant in doing and wage a mob war against all the other mafia families which could tear the Corleone family apart. —srijanarora-152-448595
