The first film remains a towering achievement, brilliantly cast and conceivedcoppola has never been able to leave them alone, whether returning after 15 years to make a trilogy of the diptych, or re-editing the first two films into chronological order for a separate video release as the godfather sagathe stakes were higher, the story's construction more elaborate and the isolated despair at the end wholly earned(has there ever been a cinematic performance greater than al pacino's michael, so smart and ambitious, marching through the years into what he knows is his own doom with eyes open and hungry?) the godfather, part iii was mostly written off as an attempted cash-in but it is a wholly worthy conclusion, less slow than autumnally patient and almost merciless in the way it brings michael's past sins crashing down around him even as he tries to redeem himselfoxfam bookshop carlisle despite making many other distinguished films in his long, wandering career, francis ford coppola will always be known as the man who directed the godfather trilogy, a series that has dominated and defined their creator in a way perhaps no other director can understandthe films are an italian-american shakespearian cycle: they tell a tale of a vicious mobster and his extended personal and professional families (once the stuff of righteous moral comeuppance), and they dared to present themselves with an epic sweep and an unapologetically tragic toneand it turned out to be merely prologue; two years later the godfather, part ii balanced michael's ever-greater acquisition of power and influence during the fall of cuba with the story of his father's own youthful rise from immigrant slumsmurder, it turned out, was a serious businessthe entry of michael corleone into the family business, the transition of power from his father, the ruthless dispatch of his enemies--all this is told with an assurance that is breathtaking to behold see oxfam website for delivery information read more
