276. The Godfather: Part II (#3)




The 250 show

Summary: Hosted by Andrew Quinn and Darren Mooney, and this week with special guests Deirdre Molumby and Brian Lloyd, The 250 is a weekly trip through some of the best (and worst) movies ever made, as voted for by Internet Movie Database Users. New episodes are released Saturdays at 6pm GMT. So this week, Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather: Part II. In 1901, Vito Andolini is evacuated from the small town of Corleone, fleeing to the new world in the hopes of a new life. In 1959, his son Michael Corleone continues his efforts to legitimise the family business. However, will Michael's efforts to maintain control of the empire that Vito built ultimately lead to the collapse of what both men held most dear? At time of recording, it was ranked 3rd on the list of the best movies of all time on the Internet Movie Database.
