The Godfather: 50th Anniversary
AroView: Francis Ford Coppola’s adaptation of Mario Puzo’s novel is a vivid and immaculately staged portrait of a Sicilian family’s struggle to maintain their gangland dominance in New York as the narcotics trade enters the fray in the late 1940s. Seamlessly intersecting cinematic art and grand-scale entertainment, it was a shoo-in for the Best Picture Academy Award, and along with its companion sequel, has since taken on iconic status.
