<font color="white">Right on Xen! The Godfather 1 & 2 are excellent! Great storyline and subject matter to boot. Not too sure about Part 3 though.
The book is even better! Actually, the flashback scenes of young Vito Corleone(played by Robert Deniro) from Part 2 were discribed and narrated in the book itself. I suppose they didn't have enough time in the first movie to tell that part of the story. Thus, saving it for part 2(and one of the BEST part too if I might add). The movie stayed very faithful to the original book. Almost every scene, every detail....
Luca Brasi was a riot! My two favourite characters in both the book and the movies without a doubt are Tom Hagen and young Vito Corleone.
Until this very day, no other Mafia/gangster movie has ever come close to what The Godfather is all about. [img]graemlins/pimpser.gif[/img]
