(1972) Directed by Francis Ford Coppola and written by Coppola and Mario Puzo, from his novel. Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James Caan. (171 min.) R

During the delicate transfer of power within a Mafia family, loyalty transcends every virtue and every sin. Coppola chafed at filming a best seller, but this became his most vital and personal film, reflecting the schism of Vietnam-era America. Brando’s riveting portrayal of Don Corleone anchors this complex and compelling bloodbath.
