Only one film for me forever. And yes it’s tough to slag The Godfather.

btw...saw Apocalypse Now a year ago in NYC in super large IMAX during a revival and wow! not only does the film still stand up but the Valkyries scene on such a large screen was awe inspiring.

Voted for the correct answer, The Godfather (1, not bloody 2, not bloody 3), but if I'm being honest, Dracula is my fave.

I also saw The Godfather 2 last year at on of those Fantom Events movie theaters were doing pre-covid and one can argue that 2 is even better than 1. 2 of course features Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino.

Having never seen any of the Godfather movies, I went for -

The Outsiders

Apocalypse Now

The Conversation

Many things. :) I love classic cinema, but some just do nothing for me. It happens. Probably there is some AFI top 100 film that I love and you find dull or dislike.

But Godfather is the great intersection between critics fave and fan fave. Athletes and rappers list it all the time as a favorite slongside Scarface. Dull?

What have you done with Earth-Jeff?

There aren’t any likable characters in Scarface.

I think we should send Luca Brasi to Jeff's house to discuss the matter further.
