I consider Hitchcock to be the best director but Francis Ford Coppola directed some ofy favourite films. The Godfather (1972)-my favourite film of all time The Godfather Part II (1974)-excellent sequel, won Best Picture, rare for a sequel Apocalypse Now (1979)-my favourite war film Hr made Brando really, Marlon Brando is regarded as one of the greats and really Francis Ford Coppola made him, if he had not cast him in The Godfather (1972), it is unlikely he would be as respected or as famous as he is now. He also made Al Pacino really as The Godfather helped launch his career. Same with Robert De Niro. Though he had already done Mean Streets (1973)

I've got an assignment to do, and I couldn't get my hands on any of The Godfather films. I watched The Outsiders, and a little of Peggy Sue got Married. I've found some themes that tend to find their ways into all of his films (family relationships, etc.), but I can't seem to find any visual-type things that he does. The only one I've got right now is that he uses wide panning shots to give the viewers a sense of the scale of the setting. Please help!

So, on t.v. yesterday I heard Francis Ford Coppola, (director of the Godfather I and II) say that there never should have been a part two! I was TOTALLY shocked!! Part two can not only go down as the best sequel of all time, but I love that one more than the first!! What do you think about his comments? Which do you like better?

I feel Ron Howard is a bit overrated.
