The first part, released in 1972, The Godfather set new benchmarks in cinematic storytelling and went on to become one of the most celebrated films in the history of cinema.

Its sequels, The Godfather Part II (1974) and The Godfather Part III (1990), cemented the trilogy as a cornerstone of global cinema.

Directed by Francis Ford Coppola and based on Mario Puzo’s bestselling novel, The Godfather revolves around the story of the powerful Italian-American family of Don Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando).

When Vito’s youngest son, Michael (Al Pacino), reluctantly joins the Mafia, he becomes involved in the inevitable cycle of violence and betrayal. Although Michael tries to maintain a normal relationship with his wife, Kay (Diane Keaton), he is drawn deeper into the family business.
