I am currently watching The Godfather
Virtually a perfect film. I don't care how many times I watch it, it never gets old and always amazes me.

3. if you ever get the chance, watch the one where all the events of 1 & 2 are
rearranged in chronological order. That is powerful.

I want to OWN that one, if I can ever get my hands on it.

4.  I think it's in the latest Coppola restoration
I am not 100 percent on that. Best Buy has both the dvd and Blu-Rays for reasonable prices. You get all three films, plus some extras. All totally remastered, I heard they are awesome. I'm going to wait about a year or so for Blu-Ray to go down in price then that's one of the ones on the top of my list.

6. Have you seen the deleted scenes
from the box set a couple of years ago? Some great stuff left on the cutting room floor.

7. amazing film, though Dom Correlone can sometimes be hard to understand
probably a little less cotton in his mouth would have been better, but still one of the best movies ever!
