Bag om The Godfather Effect

Fifty years and one billion dollars in gross box-office receipts after the initial release of The Godfather, Francis Ford Coppola''s masterful trilogy continues to fascinate viewers old and new. The Godfather Effect skillfully analyzes the reasons behind this ongoing global phenomenon.
