Accept an offer you can’t refuse. Francis Ford Coppola's landmark is the mob movie, but also one of our most powerful family epics. Marlon Brando and Al Pacino deliver indelible performances as Vito and Michael Corleone, a father-son duo trying to keep their crime families and their family-families together. The stacked cast includes James Caan, Robert Duvall, Diane Keaton, and John Cazale.
An instant classic on its arrival 50 years ago, The Godfather won Best Picture and became emblematic of a brand of challenging American popular film — informed heavily by European art cinema — that flourished through the 70s. Now, it has been fully restored under the supervision of Coppola.
