Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Vito Corleone, Clemenza and Tessio are going to the gunsmith the owner's name is Augustino Coppola, later he introduces his son, Carmine Coppola, who demonstrates his flute playing abilities. This scene is a tribute to Francis Ford Coppola's father and grandfather. His father was the first flautist with the NBC symphony under Arturo Toscanini. His grandfather was an actual gunsmith. His father worked in the "shop" from time to time as a child. They both insist the event actually happened.
- GoofsAs the Corleone's pack up to move to Las Vegas, there is a real estate sign outside the compound offering the property for commercial development. Later, Michael meets Frankie Pentangeli in his father's old (redecorated) house.
- Alternate versionsA 1981 video release was titled The Godfather 1902-1959: The Complete Epic (in Japan it was titled The Godfather 1901-1959: The Epic). This version reportedly contains less additional scenes but has all the R rated stuff that was taken out of the broadcast version reinstated. In 1992, The Godfather Trilogy: 1901-1980 (1992) was released. It features "The Godfather 1902-1959: The Complete Epic" and The Godfather Part III (1990) edited in chronological order with more additional scenes then the epic but still not all the deleted scenes from the broadcast version. (The complete Godfather Saga with all deleted scenes from the broadcast version included was never released on home video).
