The Glorious Godfather

Rating: Null/10 (30 June 2017)

I have always preferred Godfather II to the original and solely because De Niro was chillingly cool, cold blooded and subtle. His was a great character study. I loved the texture and atmosphere throughout the movie in capturing Little Italy and the Sicilian scenes. The commission hearings and other Italian characters complemented the main actors with a realistic thread. The interwoven flashback and present day interlinks were majestically done without detracting or lulling the story line and of course the theme music which you could instantly recognise years later. Definitely one of the top 3 greatest of all time movies.
