Fifty years ago this month, we saw the release of one the greatest and most influential films in the history of American cinema. Directed by a then-relatively unknown Francis Ford Coppola and adapted from a hugely popular fictional best-seller from a few years prior from author Mario Puzo, this movie took the world by storm having a instant and long-lasting impact on not only films but pop culture in general. If you weren’t already aware of the actual plot, let’s just say that it’s mainly about….FAMILY. Marlon Brando and Al Pacino star in this crime epic as Vito and Michael Corleone, two generations of leadership over a powerful organized crime family. Also included among this legendarily stacked cast are Diane Keaton, James Caan, Robert Duvall, and Talia Shire.
