Movie Haiku:Portrait of the Don as a young man. Michael (Pacino) thinks he can escape the family business, but an assasination attempt brings him back to his father's bedside. Brando is in peak form as the aging Mafioso & director Coppola surrounds him with finely detailed worlds -- both old & new.
