Welcome to the next Sunday movie night!
Each Sunday we are giving you a recommendation of a film that is worth another watch and fits to the COSCA lifestyle.
We started this first week of the year here with Scarface so let's change the setting to a rather Italian movie and give you the from some people called the G.O.A.T, the greatest of all time: The Godfather (1972)
Coppola, F. (Director). (1972). The Godfather [Motion picture].
United States: Paramount Pictures.
IMDb rating: 9.2/10 ⭐️
Does this movie really need an introduction? Or another recommendation? Probably not, but let's stick to the script and write a proper blog article about it because this movie deserves nothing less. Let me tell you one thing though: If you have NOT yet seen this movie, please just STOP reading here, immediately turn on your TV or any other desired device and watch it right f**** now - I mean it, it's an offer you can't refuse! (you'll get this later)
The Godfather, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, is considered a true classic and is even often seen as one of the greatest films ever made (#2 on IMDb, do you think it should be number one? Let us know in the comments!). It won three Academy Awards, including Best Actor for Marlon Brando, Best Picture and Best Writing. The film's enduring popularity and cultural impact has made it a must-see for movie fans, and it has inspired countless other films and television shows in the crime genre. The film centers around the aging patriarch of the family, Vito Corleone, and his decision to pass down his empire to one of his sons. As the family competes for the succession, they must also navigate their relationships with other mafia families and deal with betrayal and violence within their own ranks.
One of the things that makes The Godfather so enduringly popular is the strong character development and the top-notch performances from the cast, including Marlon Brando as Vito Corleone and Al Pacino as his son, Michael. The film also boasts an epic and memorable score, as well as stunning cinematography that captures the grandeur and grit of the mafia world. Its portrayal of the inner workings of the mafia and its exploration of themes such as family, loyalty, and the corrupting influence of power is just legendary and this film has left a lasting mark on popular culture and continues to be widely celebrated by both critics and audiences.
The Godfather is a must-see film for anyone who enjoys crime dramas, great storytelling, and top-notch performances from a talented cast, I think we can all agree on that!
Just hearing the opening tones of The Godfather soundtrack will make you hum with it, am I right? The soundtrack is an integral part of the film, and it has contributed significantly to the film's lasting popularity. Composed by Nino Rota, the score is epic and memorable, and it includes some of the most iconic pieces of music in film history. One of the most famous pieces of music from the soundtrack is the "Love Theme," which is a tender and romantic piece that is used throughout the film to underscore the relationships between the characters. The "Godfather Waltz," another well-known piece from the soundtrack, is a grand and sweeping piece that is used to convey the majesty and power of the Corleone family. And even if you don't have time to give this movie another go, even though we think you should watch it at least once a year: Here is the soundtrack that will make you watch it again!
