An offer you cant refuse. As special photographer on the sets and locations of Francis Ford Coppolas "The Godfather Trilogy", Steve Schapiro had the remarkable experience of witnessing legendary actors giving some of their most memorable performances. Schapiro immortalized Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, James Caan, Robert Duvall and Diane Keaton in photos that have since become iconic images, instantly recognizable and endlessly imitated. Gathered together for the first time in this book are Schapiros finest photographs from all three "Godfather" films, lovingly reproduced from the original negatives. With contextual essays and interviews covering the trilogy in its entirety, this book contains over 400 color and black & white images, most of them never previously published. Schapiros images take us behind the scenes of this epic and inimitable cinematic saga, revealing the directors working process, capturing the moods and personalities involved, and providing insight into the making of movie history. Previously restricted to 1,000 limited edition copies, this is the unlimited trade edition for cinephiles and family members on a budget!
