The Godfather Part II

Francis Ford Coppola · 1974 CE · Film · Modern / American · Contemporary

Two lines run in parallel: a Sicilian boy arrives alone at Ellis Island and builds a living in Little Italy, and fifty years later his youngest son extends the family business into Nevada and Havana. The son answers an attempt on his life by looking for the betrayal inside his own household. The rise and the freezing set side by side.
