The Godfather

The story spans the years from 1945 to 1955 and chronicles the fictional Italian-American Corleone crime family. When organized crime family patriarch Vito Corleone barely survives an attempt on his life, his youngest son, Michael, steps in to take care of the would-be killers, launching a campaign of bloody revenge.

He didn't say that line in the film, did he? by Peter Roberts

So many iconic moments and characters in this film, it has been embeded in to popular culture. Whenever people think of Brando two of his roles always spring to mind and this is always one of them. This is a story that is complete just in this film. Then you get the pleasure of two more films, 'The Godfather Part II' is often quoted as being better than the original, I disagree but they are both excellent films. The third film in the trilogy isn't so great and is let down by having one of the Garcia brothers in it. This film is a must see and you will love it forever, if you don't then stop watching films altogether.
