A realistic and shocking picture of how the mob acted in 40 years. A masterpiece of incalculable value.

In it, follow the story of Don Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando), a mafia boss in New York who finds himself surrounded by intrigues and problems as "new times" appear to organized crime. After an assassination attempt against him, his sons, Sonny (James Caan) and Michael (Pacino), are forced to assume the thankless position of the father. Meanwhile, the five Mafia families are torn place in the streets.

In the opening scenes of the counterpoints between business meetings and wedding party, Gordon Willis, cinematographer, continues to demonstrate vision deft at various times. And Tom Hagen, played by Robert Duvall, is a major benefit.

In the other names of the cast, especially a Diane Keaton lost in a world of filth, money and blood. She plays Kay Adams, the wife of Michael, who ends up in this world who hates her husband for love in a relationship that will be thoroughly discussed throughout the trilogy.

Personal Comment:

Violent and realistic, is a perfect picture of how the Mafia could be good and cruel at the same time. Full of meaning, deaths and serious characters, it is absolutely impossible to take my eyes off the screen for even a second. They can not be confused with anything personal business, but who's gain in this whole mess we, the public. And we need not kill anyone for it.
