The Annotated Godfather (50th Anniversary Edition): The Complete Screenplay, Commentary on Every Scene, Interviews, and Little-Known Facts

Great book

The Godfather screenplay complete with notes on production and interesting historical facts about the movie, cast and crew. I’ve watched the movie and read the book and this is the perfect link between the two. The pure, unadulterated screenplay would be interesting enough but what makes this so enthralling is the production notes and other interesting facts about the movie. Some great lesser-known events, often from the mouths of people like Francis Ford Coppola and Marlon Brando themselves. An absolute must-read, especially for students of classic cinema.

Mükemmel, her kütüphanede olması gerek

This book is everything you could want for a Godfather fan. I got this for my sister's husband, a movie lover who puts the Godfather at his all time number one, and he loved flipping through it. It has facts and notes on most pages, and it's all very high quality. Let me start by looking at the design of the book itself. It's paperback, but it's very nice quality. The pages are easy to flip through without moving through multiple at once, and the flashy red design of the outside cover would make it a good piece to put on a table or shelf as decoration. However, when buying, take note that the book is quite large. It was a bit surprising when I first received it. Of course, the book design isn't that important here, the book is. The book has not only the script, but pictures from the film and little text boxes to either side of it, making it quite an interesting thing to look at. The pictures are mainly in little clusters, and they are both in color and black and white. There's information about the shooting of the movie, problems in production, and even profiles of the actors, and the overall time and effort this book shows is enough to make it essential for any Godfather fan. In conclusion, if you buy a different book or find the screenplay online, you just aren't going to receive the detail and general beauty that this book has. The pictures, tidbits, and everything else pulls you in and makes you feel like a part of the process, not just an outside observer. Though you have many options for finding this screenplay, this is the most captivating, and because of that, I believe it deserves five stars.

Es un libro doblemente fascinante: 1. Te ofrece todo el guión completo de la película. 2. Te ofrece fotografías increíbles y datos importantes de la producción de la misma. Es material que no vas a encontrar junta en ninguna otra publicación. Aunque consigas por otro lado el PDF del Screenplay completo, te perderías todo el resto de la información de primera mano que contiene este libro. Para cinéticos y productores de películas es altamente recomendable.
