About the trilogy
Directed by Francis Ford Coppola and based on Mario Puzo’s bestselling novel, The Godfather trilogy is widely regarded as the greatest achievement in American cinema. The Godfather was an American gangster epic film that revolved around the Corleone family, which was held together by patriarch Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando).
The film went on to become a massive commercial as well as critical success, winning Best Picture, Best Actor (Brando), and Best Adapted Screenplay (for Mario Puzo and Coppola). Two sequels of the film were also made- which received acclaim. With iconic performances by Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, Diane Keaton, and Robert De Niro, these films continue to influence filmmakers across the world.
