Title Card: The godfather was born Vito Andolini, in the town of Corleone in Sicily. In 1901 his father was murdered for an insult to the local Mafia chieftain. His older brother Paolo swore revenge and disappeared into the hills, leaving Vito, the only male heir, to stand with his mother at the funeral. He was nine years old.

Trivia
As of 2010, Robert De Niro is one of only six actors (with Sophia Loren, Roberto Benigni, Benicio Del Toro, Marion Cotillard and Christoph Waltz) to win an Academy Award for a role primarily in a language other than English, since almost all of his dialogue is in Italian. See more »Goofs
When Vito with his family leaves Corleone to go back in the States, he starts his trip taking a train in the Corleone station. Corleone never had a train station, the nearest (34 km) useful train station is in Palermo, and is not looking like the little village station we see on screen. See more »Quotes

The Godfather Part Two is possibly the best film ever made, every part of this film is amazing, it is even better than the original, I was very surprised by this. The story is amazing, everything makes perfect sense. The Oscar winning screenplay is amazing, the dialogue is some of the most original, and realistic ever putt on screen, the characters are flawless, and it's in every way perfectly written. The acting is just as fantastic, I can't believe Al Pacino lost the Oscar, and for once Robert De Niro was even better, he was truly amazing, and interestingly he fails to say a single word in English. The direction is also amazing, Francis Ford Coppola even does a better job than he did in The Godfather, and Apocalypse Now. The visual effects are so much better than the amazing one's in the original Godfather. One of the best films ever, a must see. Flawless.
