Now this is a very good making of, Certainly one of the best of the bunch as far as colour is concerned. No fade here and with a crisp clear image and excellent sound this short delves right into the story with a generous helping of behind the scenes and also scenes from the final film. Interviews with all the main cast, (except Brando though there is a lot of footage of him). I certainly didn't expect the colours to have up so well on this. Well recommended if you can find it. The actual title of this short is The Godfather is now a movie but was generally released as The Godfather promo.
If only the Marketing versions had this quality [Mad]

No David, i have had this one for around 15 years i think. I certainly didn't think the colours would hold up on this but all our "Making ofs" are actually very good [Wink]

I sold a copy last year of this promo, and the colour was still very good also, so they do come up now and then.

Was this the average 200ft documentary? I've noticed that most (if not all) were 200ft or about 7 or 8 minutes long. Excellent color!
