Notes
Special Notes:
The three “Godfather” movies have been released only as a five-disc DVD set. They are not presently available individually.
Story Synopsis:
In 1972, Francis Ford Coppola’s gangster drama, The Godfather, won three of its ten Academy Award® nominations -- Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Screenplay. Based on Mario Puzo’s novel, Marlon Brando stars as Don Corleone, patriarch of a powerful Sicilian clan that ruled organized crime in 1940s America. Al Pacino stars in his career-making role as Michael, Corleone’s youngest son and heir to the power within the family.
DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD is quite impressive. The picture is solid, with sharp and nicely detailed images. The color scheme is comparable to an aged photograph, with brownish hues throughout. Blacks are deep, and often undefined. Source element artifacts and film grain are present. Edge enhancement often distracts from the picture, and there is some pixelization and shimmering noticed in finer details. Compared tot he LaserDisc, the DVD should be quite pleasing for its more solid appearance, better color balance, and improved contrast. (Suzanne Hodges)
Soundtrack:
The Dolby® Digital 5.1-channel remastered soundtrack is slightly smoother-sounding than the previous LaserDisc version, but otherwise both soundtracks sound the same. While the original audio’s dated fidelity shines through, the soundstage presentation is quite palpable throughout, in terms of both atmospheric effects and the repurposed music. The latter, the signature Nina Rota orchestral score, images nicely across the screen with some spread into the surrounds, and has a rich, enveloping presence at times. Voices are presented with clarity, but the dated recording limits their natural tonality. There is a general balance toward the screen. The celebrated restaurant scene, with a subway running in the backdrop, is sonically rendered impressively, with the surrounds coming alive with the subway as an artistic heightening of the visceral tension with Michael Corleone.
