Show Notes

Jackie and Greg pull up a seat at the lake house for their episode on Francis Ford Coppola's THE GODFATHER PART II from 1974. Topics of discussion include comparisons to the first film, how it pioneered the movie sequel, the more muted palette yet more sprawling canvas, and how Nino Rota's score is even more powerful the second time around. Is it that rare sequel that bests the original? You'll have to listen to find out.
