The brilliant companion piece to "The Godfather" continues the saga of two generations of successive power within the Corleone Family from a screenplay by Francis Ford Coppola based on Mario Puzo's novel. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, "The Godfather Part 2" tells two important stories: the roots and rise of a young Don Vito, played with uncanny ability by Robert De Niro, and the ascension of Michael (Al Pacino) as the new Don. Reassembling many of the talents who made "The Godfather", Coppola produced a movie of staggering magnitude and vision, and undeniably the best sequel ever made.
