This is a fascinating, lengthy chat about two of the greatest films ever made, and that so many principal actors involved were able to take part in the discussion makes it pretty terrific. Of course when it came time to make The Godfather Part II, it was much smoother sailing.Įven Pacino admitted his misgivings about the first film during production, revealing that after shooting the wedding scene, he and Keaton got drunk together and talked about how much of a disaster The Godfather appeared to be, going so far as to describe it as “the worst film ever made.” Coppola himself was almost fired, but during the Q&A he revealed how he made some adjustments to appease the studio while keeping the integrity of The Godfather intact. The one-and-a-half-hour discussion covered a wide range of topics, focusing on the difficulty of even getting the first Godfather made-which included Paramount’s unwillingness to cast Marlon Brando or Pacino in what would become iconic roles in cinema history. And now the full discussion is online for all to see. Yes indeed, in one hell of a Q&A, Francis Ford Coppola was joined onstage by Al Pacino, Diane Keaton, Robert De Niro, Robert Duvall, Talia Shire, and James Caan after a back-to-back screening of the first two Godfather films, with director Taylor Hackford ( Ray) moderating. A man of few words, he is partnered with dope kingpin Jean Jehan to smuggle vast quantities of heroin into the United States.This weekend at the Tribeca Film Festival, the main cast and director of two of the greatest films ever made reunited to talk all things The Godfather and The Godfather Part II.
