Short description

In the midst of trying to legitimize his business dealings in 1979 New York and Italy, aging mafia don, Michael Corleone seeks forgiveness for his sins while taking a young protege under his wing.

What's left behind the scenes

  • In the novel “The Godfather,” Michael Corleone had two sons, however, in the film he has a son and a daughter.
  • Francis Ford Coppola wanted to film a fourth part of "The Godfather." Andy Garcia and Leonardo DiCaprio were to play the main roles. However, the filming did not take place due to the author's death.
  • The full video version of the film has a runtime of 169 minutes.
  • Sofia Coppola (daughter of director Francis Ford Coppola) plays the role of Michael Corleone's daughter, but in the film "The Godfather" (1972) she played his nephew as a child. Winona Ryder was supposed to play this role, but declined in favor of a role in "Edward Scissorhands" (1990).
  • Instead of Andy Garcia, the role of Vincent could have been played by: Alec Baldwin, Matt Dillon, Vincent Spano, Val Kilmer, Charlie Sheen, Billy Zane, Nicolas Cage.
  • Robert De Niro wanted to participate in the project, but Coppola, after consideration, turned him down.
  • Each of the three parts of the film begins with a celebration: the first part features the wedding of Connie Corleone, the second – the first communion of Anthony Corleone, Michael’s son. The final part of the trilogy opens with Michael being awarded an order by the Catholic Church.
  • The plot is partially based on ideas published in David Yallop's book "In the Name of God".
  • Due to disagreements with Paramount, Robert Duvall did not participate in the project, and one of the key characters, Tom Hagen, was removed from the script.
  • The opera sung by Anthony, Michael Corleone’s son, is Pietro Mascagni's "Cavalleria Rusticana" (Rustic Honor).
