I can't stop watching this, great post, and thanks-- the music so perfect, Bette Midler,
adds something so special to this song, originally sung by Rosemary Clooney and
your editing of the three Godfather movies, entertaining, while comical all at the same time... I love it~~ Many, Many starz for you- just great!!! Thanks & Best Marcie*
I never really liked the whole "movie in this amount of minutes" concept for videos, but this one was much different, much better than any of those. This is actually a tribute. Great job!
Great movie! For reasons I don`t understand why The Godfather 3 is unappreciated by most of the people!
Extraordinary mix you made here! Thank you for this video and for your the great channel you have!
This is most probably my very favorite video on YouTube!!
P.S. Great music you used there! Mambo Italiano - I first listened to this piece played by Renato Carosone but Bette Midler gives it a very different "flavor". I just love it!
How did I miss this Gem? A rapid-fire, resplendent potpourri and melange of ALL that is GREAT in the GODFATHER Saga. And MAMBO ITALIANO by the Divine Miss M...? Perfect choice. :DD
@CaptainPommby Thanks! Please rate! Somebody gave me a 1 star on it and wrecked by 5 star rating. Appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment!!
Oh Honey! You KNOW how much I LOVE this! I was worried I'd never see it again! You're so amazing...SO amazing! 100+ stars & so much more! Big hugs! Red
Makes me realize that no matter how bad you believe that you have it, or how great you believe that someone else may have it; one never knows for who, or how, or why life goes. We don't know what it might have cost that person to have what they have, or to be what they are. One never knows from where life comes, nor to where it goes. We have but to appreciate what it is, in the now and forever. Thanks Billy! Be well.
Fabulous ! I had the biggest grin on my face the entire time !
COPPOLA CAMPINESS !!! Only you could achieve that, Rick...... Well Done.
That being said, I am compelled to get on my little soapbox and say that the "Godfather Saga" i.e. the three films re-spliced into chronological order is the most nauseating act of artistic vandalism in the annals of cinema.
Also, this 3 minute video has more artistic integrity and value than the 3 hours of Godfather III .... a terrible film in every way.
Really...? I actually must be among the very few who actually like it and think it should have won the Oscar for Best Picture over "Dances With Wolves." It is not in the league of "I" o "II," I'll grant you, but, given the lapse in time making it, I think it's something of a worthy successor.
I respectfully and completely disagree. "Dances With Wolves" is an American Classic. But I will grant that you have far better credentials in this field than I ..... but again, your telling phrase "among the few who actually like it...." also, no Bob Duvall in 3.
Yes, no Duvall in 3 and George Hamilton in his stead was admittedly an act of madness on Coppola's part. Paramount should have paid whatever Duvall was asking -- would've been worth every cent and then some.
Excellent video. Also, thanks for the HD quality.

its a philosophy that may leave viewers very inspired and impressed, but the portrayal of its characters is as far from reality as it gets.

I finally saw The Godfather just yesterday.
This film takes a snapshot of Mafia life in way I've never seen it been done before.
This video beautiful captures the style, emotion, and power of this (and these) movies that I can't see being topped. Kudos, my friend.
