The Godfather Red Trilogy Box Set
Francis Ford Coppola is one of the greatest directors who ever lived and The Godfather Red Trilogy Box Set is a collection of the three Godfather movies, his definitive masterpiece. Based on the novel by Mario Puzo, these three movies tell the epic and poignant story of the rise and collapse of a Sicilian family dynasty in the dangerously shady underworld of organised crime.
It is a gripping and violent tale of honour and revenge, of a patriarch’s chillingly single-minded pursuit of power and money, and the massive burden he places upon his sons to collaborate in his project. They, in turn, fight for independence and for the right to have their own ambitions and their own lives and happiness, but eventually succumb to the relentless pressure upon them to honour him by performing their filial duty.
It is a poignant immigrant story, of men who dream of the homes they left behind as they struggle to build new lives in America, and the way in which the second generation can never live up to the dreams put in motion by the first. Even with the best of intentions, not having suffered as their father did, they will never be the man he is. This is a source of bitter disappointment for him, and eventually spells tragedy for everyone as the disparity between his hopes and their reality gradually destroys everything they hold dear.
