Forked Article

The content of this article was forked from another article, The Godfather (novel). Please see that article's page history for contributor information for parts of this article.

Cast List

I'm thinking that the See Also section ought to be used for the more notable among the cast, e.g. Al Pacino, Francis Ford Coppola and of course Marlon Brando. Perhaps a selective cast list could go under the Casting section, to avoid clogging up the bottom of the article? Rob Church 10:55, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

References

I'm now in the awkward position of trying to fill up the References section for this article. As I didn't write most of the content (forked from another article), this is going to be difficult. All help is therefore welcome. A brief read-through suggests references for the following claims will be needed, at the very least:

  • Pacino was only granted the role after Coppola threatened to quit the production.
  • It was voted greatest film of all time by Entertainment Weekly, and #3 of all time by the American Film Institute. It is consistently, and currently, ranked #1 on IMDB's Top 250.
  • Coppola stated that the horse's head was delivered to him from a dog food company; a horse had not been killed especially for the movie.
  • Mafia families began a "real life" tradition of paying respect to the family don by kissing his ring, in imitation of the opening scene of The Godfather.

All pointers welcome. Rob Church 12:36, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

Redirection

It is ridiculous for The Godfather to redirect here. Either The Godfather should be a disambiguation page, or this page should be at The Godfather. I think either is defensible, but it is not defensible to have the main title redirecting to a disambiguated title. What on earth is the point of the disambiguated title in this case? john k 21:33, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
