movie review - The Godfather

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 1997.07.24

I suppose this was the original, but it's hard to take as seriously now that so much of what this film did became a staple and from there a cliche. Still, everyone should probably see why we're still talking about it so many years later.

Recommended.
