The Godfather (1972)
Spoilers!!!
This is the best movie i ever seen.
This movie contains great acting and a great plot You must watch it.
If you watch it already watch it again.
I always have the highest regard for the script before anything associated with films , therefore I'd like to talk about Godfather's screenplay first .
The mafia was always seen as evil, secretive and not interesting enough to be a story.
Then came The Godfather and today countless movies and television shows take place about gangsters and the mafia.
But what a great risk it must have been for Francis Ford Coppola to adapt Mario Puzo's best- seller to the big screen.
He succeeded in the two areas I believe are the most important in film: acting and writing.
There's also something special about how the film interacts with the viewer, and it's hard to exactly explain what it is; it's an unusual tone. I guess it has something to do with how it all mixes: the superb acting, the almost-strange-but-beautiful camera shots, the haunting music.
I would argue that it makes the film as a whole haunting.
Do not miss this movie.
