In the times that the acces to tv by cable seems to be far away from reality, mum, dad and me used to have dinner in the kitchen, while in the TV it was showing a movie...awarded by the academy in 1973...since that time, that movie and its sequel become one of my favourites movies in my life and that one i could watch it million of times...
and its soundtrack is unique and many times used by other films and special shorts, Nino Rota was a genius.
i suggest to click the video and let the music play, while you are reading the lines below...
This movie tlaks about the Corleone´s family, since little Vito Andollini ran away from Corleone´s town to scape from his killers, he arrived to New York as another italian inmigrant who found the american dream and a new beggining...
After many years, in order to survive and grow in the USA, Vito joined two old friends...Clemenza ans Tessio who help him to increase his fortune and also his power, he had gained a reputation of avenger.
But for Vito Corleone, family is sacred and very important...specially for his sons....he even thought his eldest boy Sony could ever replaced some day, but never imagine that he would be murdered...so the last option was his little boy "Michael" (play by a ver young Al Pacino) , who in the beginning didn´t get involved in the family business.
But after, 2 murderers, one killed wife and a many enemies...Michael Corleone become the head of the family even more merciless than his father, even to the limit to kill his own brother for its betrayal.
By the end of his days, even he had tried to quit that world of mafia, gangsters and cossa nostra, he couldn´t scape from his destiny and the consequences of his acts, despite he left the power to his nephew Vincent...
He coludn´t avoid that his daughter was murdered by his enemies, as was shown in the last act of the trilogy.
why those movies never get bored? could be many reasons,
the way the story was told .... simple with antologic phrases...(who doesn´t remembered the famous phrase "i am gonna make him an offer that he can´t refused")
the tematic that the movies had been designed, starting with a family reunion, going on with the meeting of the head of the families...continuing a journey to the old Sicily, and always finished with the scene of multiple murderers.
the music who joined the scenes, special for each moment, romantic, angst, thriller,religious, etc.
the enigmatic facts of real life who showed the movie, for example: the cuban revolution, the death of the Pope JPI (for the creator of the God father it was an intentional murdered), the rising of Jhonny Fonatine (but the bad gossips said it was really Frank Sinatra) by the threatned of the director with his dead horse.

By the end of his days, even he had tried to quit that world of mafia, gangsters and cossa nostra, he couldn´t scape from his destiny and the consequences of his acts, despite he left the power to his nephew Vincent...

The scene of the death, the moment when Michael showed his deepest pain

the escen of the dead horse, focus in the oscar statue in the night table of the director...who director in the real life was??? - a great mistery
The truth is, The Godfather is one of the jewels of the movies that even of the time and its 0 special effects, he will delight many generations.
