The Godfather - (Francis Ford Coppola;1972;USA)
A civilian man is drawn into the mafia after an attempt on his crime boss father's life.
One of those films that drips into all of the cracks perfectly filling the gaps. The acting, eerie and isolating score, direction, cinematography, everything. It's not just a mafia film, but a film about family. It touches on all levels without failing. Al Pacino displays a fierce intensity that would grow further with the sequel. Not only is this about the crime and the family, but also a man's fall from grace that would be perfectly displayed with the final moment of part II. One of the ten best ever. It's not even just the cult aspect of the film, very few films bring out every emotion I can feel.
