hi there sarahruthbeth22! i honestly don't remember the first time i watched the movie 'the godfather'. what i do know is that i read the book first and then got for myself a dvd copy of the 'godfather' trilogy. in fact i have two copies, one for actually watching and the other as part of my collection. i'm a big 'godfather' fan!!! in fact i started a mylot discussion about the corleone family three years ago (link is here, http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2233023.aspx). i would all three movies but my favorite line is the godfather's very own, 'i'll make him an offer he can't refuse'. simply legendary!!!

Yes! I watched them all.....the one scene that still haunts me is the horse in the bed. I am not sure which movie that came from but it still is stuck in my memory !

Certainly a classic film. One that stands out for me was "Say hello to my little friend" but I think that was Scarface.

The first time I watched the Godfather was not that long ago,I had heard it was a classic movie before that but had never got around to watching it.I haven't really got a favourite line of the film but the scene i found most memorable was the one where the studio director wakes up to find his prize stud horses head in his bed.The other memorable scene was Luca Brasi practising what he was going to say to the Don.Apparently because he was new to acting that was him genuinely trying to remember his lines and it was decided that it would work well in the film.

I remember. I was young back then and I saw it in the movies with my uncle and my cousins. I did not quite follow the movie very well then because I was young. But I have seen it millions of time since then. And I have to agree, it was and is an awesome movie. It was very well put together, the actors pick were perfect. And it did stand the test of time. Even though I do not agree with mafia mentality, I always thought is was better suited for the movies anyway. And very entertaining. 40 years is a long time. I was 10 years old then.

I have never seen it. Unfortunately, I have seen The Godfather Part 3 on television before. And I'm told that was the worst one ever.

hello, Yeah man its a classic movie. Its a pure class. Everything in this movie is just perfect. You cannot change a single thing. Everything is just epic. All the characters are so so special and mind blowingly written that it is impossible to decide which one is better than which one. All of them are great. MArlon brando, al Pacino so on and so forth. Hats off to Francis ford coppolla. Good job man.

I don`t remember what paert was from the book I read or form the movoe I saw. I do know that I fell in love then and there with Al Pacino. And what was that line about making an offer that ... can`t refuse?

I do remember the first time I watched it, I was rather young. Still in headstart if I remember correctly. My grandmother got so angry that my dad allowed me to watch it. I've watched it since then, and while it's not one of my absolute favorites I still enjoy watching it occasionally.
