Sopranos, Goodfellas, Casino, there is only one Godfather !

Rating: 10/10 (13 December 2000)

Forget the violence & crime. At the heart of this film is a story about family and the bond between family members. This is probably the greatest soap ever made. It is so easy to forget what a great actor Marlon Brando was. Fortunately we do not have to rely on Superman to be a testament to his skill. This film together with On the Waterfront & A Streetcar Named Desire are a more accurate tribute to his skill. I believe there are few books or films which really stand up to being seen repeatedly, this together with the book is one of them.
