Documentary I stumbled upon, deals with the movie the Godfather and also Hollywood of the early 1970s. Starts Francis Ford Coppola, Robert Evans, George Lucas, Stephen Speilberg, Alec Baldwin, etc.

thanks. thats reminds me. i havent watched the Godfather trilogy yet this year.
Ive been watching it every year since i first seen the movie back in 05. -
I read about how the studio tried blackballing Coppola and his choice of Pacino as Michael Corleone.
It was in an issue of Vanity Fair last year I think. These Hollywood studios don't have a ? clue, they rake in the bucks though. -
Watching it again tonight. Thanks for this documentary nice drop.

The bonus disc that comes with the lastest set explains all this, also have original footage of the casting calls. I love that it's on every Christmas day. I watched my copies so much they start skipping.
