The Godfather Book

In the twenty-five years since The Godfather was released, this monumental Paramount Pictures film has grown in stature to such a degree that in several public 'Centenary of the Cinema' polls in 1995, it rated anywhere from number 1 to number 5 of the Best Film category.The Godfather and its sequels, The Godfather Part II and Part III, are revived continually on television and remain a staple of the video marketplace. Between them the three films have won nine Academy Awards.No book yet has brought to life the whole story behind the creation of the three Godfather movies. From the initial rejection of the screenplay by many well-known Hollywood directors to casting crises on the set of Part III in Rome, the series was rocked by one challenge after another.Peter Cowie has had exclusive access to Francis Ford Coppola's archives for this book. He has interviewed Coppola himself, novelist Mario Puzo, Paramount production chief Robert Evans, and scores of other key personalities and technicians who worked on the films.
