 Godfather 2 -- Recommendations and Resources   (Site not responding. Last check: )
"The Godfather" (in Italian, ''Il Padrino'') is a term used to identify the boss of a Mafia clan, the eldest or the most representative member of a family.
It should be noted that in the movie sequel, ''The Godfather II'', it was revealed that the Godfather's real name was Vito Andolini and he was given the surname Corleone as a result of a mistake during his registration at Ellis Island.
Since its release on March 15, 1972, The Godfather has been accused of glorifying the image of the Mafia, although this word is never spoken in the film, or written in the book (although the word is spoken in the first sequel film) This is silly, and factually wrong.

The famous Chinese detective Charlie Chan, featured in 48 films in the 1930s and 1940s, was effeminate and asexual in his manner of walking and gestures.
The Chinese began to be portrayed as industrious and hardworking peasants, or otherwise favorably in films such as The Good Earth (1937), Daughter of Shanghai (1938), King of Chinatown (1939), Dragon Seed (1944) and others (Wong 1978:136-37).
For example, in a special TV program, "The New Godfathers" (1993), after announcing that a "global wave of terror" was attacking the U.S., Geraldo Rivera, the host, emphasized the Hong Kong-based Triads and the Japanese Yakuza as "especially fearsome" (Hamamoto 1994:180-81).

Rather they grimly acknowledged that the list was just business as usual, symptomatic of an increasingly dumbed-down film culture that continues to outflank our shrinking expectations.
But the malaise provoked by the list of 100 movies isn't just a response to the uselessness of the AFI; it's also a response to an increasing lack of distinction between corporate greed and what used to be called public works.
I've also decided to list my choices alphabetically rather than impose an order based on merit, since that would be tantamount to ranking oranges over apples or declaring cherries superior to grapes.
