Book Reviews of The Godfather Classic Quotes
Book Review: A Great Little Book
Summary: 5 Stars
"The Godfather" is considered one of the best films of all time. It is a rare example of a movie that has enjoyed as much of a critical acclaim as popular success. Its gritty, dominating story of the hard realities of life in the organized crime underworld has remained fresh and relatable even after four decades since the movie has been released. A big part of the fascination with the movie stems from the hard-nosed "philosophical" outlook on life that it seems to suggest. This outlook is conveyed through the action-packed scenes that were considered incredibly violent at the time when the movie was released. However, the outlook is conveyed even more forcefully through many memorable quotes that have since become an integral part of the American culture. All of these great quotes are included in this small yet well designed book. They include "I'll make him an offer he can't refuse," "This is business, not personal," "Leave the gun. Take the cannolis," and many, many others. Some of these quotes don't make much sense outside of their original context, but that only adds to their poignance. Nonetheless, this book is replete with illustrations and photographs from the movie that try to recapture some of the original context. It is a very well designed book, and even if you are not the biggest "Godfather" fan out there you will most likely enjoy it, and may even decide to watch the movie again. It has certainly had that effect on me.
Summary of The Godfather Classic Quotes
Francis Ford Coppola?s The Godfather is one of the greatest movies of all time and one of the most popular: on its 35th anniversary, it continues to be a top earner on video and DVD. But what has made this classic so compelling is the unique Corleone wit and wisdom. Every fan will want to own this officially licensed, completely fascinating anthology of memorable words from the film. It features a great selection of famous quotes from the ?Family,? from the Don?s unforgettable ?I?m gonna make him an offer he can?t refuse? to Clemenza?s infamous, ?Leave the gun. Take the cannolis.? Every sharp and witty line will bring back a memory of this great movie?and that makes it a perfect gift for every Godfather aficionado. Who would dare to resist?
