The behind-the-scenes story of the making of The Godfather, 50 years after the classic film's original release.

What The Reviewers Say

David Pitt,
Booklist
[A] detailed, fascinating, and frequently surprising look at the origins and filming of The Godfather.

Publishers Weekly
Revealing and entertaining.

Kirkus
Much of this material appears elsewhere, and Seal is sometimes too intellectual about the film.
