The Godfather - Official Trailer [1972]

The story begins as "Don" Vito Corleone, the head of a New York Mafia "family", oversees his daughter's wedding. His beloved son Michael has just come home from the war, but does not intend to become part of his father's business. Through Michael's life the nature of the family business becomes clear. The business of the family is just like the head of the family, kind and benevolent to those who give respect, but given to ruthless violence whenever anything stands against the good of the family. Don Vito lives his life in the way of the old country, but times are changing and some don't want to follow the old ways and look out for community and "family". An up and coming rival of the Corleone family wants to start selling drugs in New York, and needs the Don's influence to further his plan. The clash of the Don's fading old world values and the new ways will demand a terrible price, especially from Michael, all for the sake of the family. Written by Charlie Ness

[SenozanCan]

this is not the trailer. this totally spoils the movie. don't watch it if you haven't seen it.

[shelzo]

gee that really told us alot.

[garysaddleback]

Well, folks . . . Missing Scenes? First: When I saw this in the 70's, I KNOW that at the end of the wedding, The Don took all the sons to the hospital to visit the dying consiglierie, who begs Corleone to protect him from The Devil. Brando replies, "My friend, you blaspheme. I have no such power."

Now---on TV & rentals---I NEVER see this scene! What happened? Did fundmentalist Bible-Beaters have something to do with it?

Well, folks . . . answers, please. First: when Michael & Enzo are standing "bluff" outside the hospital, why does M. give the baker's Zippo lighter such a SIGNIFICANT glance?  Is there some sort of emblem on it that we don't see clearly? An Italian army emblem perhaps? Was this a rare sloppy moment on Coppola's part?

More in a minute.

@SenozanCan This actually was the trailer. Although, I do agree.

[techn0destruct0]

Heya, this is an excellent idea, nevertheless it's certainly not optimal. A Few Things I identified that will work actually far better was at roulettecash-org.
