Synopsis

Don Vito Corleone is the Godfather of one of six New York City mafia families. Tyrant and blackmailer, and at the same time a man of honor, rules with an iron fist. His decisions are final. He arouses respect and fear among his enemies, and deserved, though not completely disinterested, respect among his friends. When he refuses to participate in a lucrative new business - drug trafficking, he comes into a sharp, bloody conflict with Cosa Nostra. The honor of the family can only be saved by the youngest, beloved son of Vita Michael, a war hero. Will he prove to be a worthy successor to the Godfather?
