"It' s dangerous to be an honest man. " - Michael Corleone, Godfather IIIAs special photographer on the sets and locations of Francis Ford Coppola' s 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 in this book are Schapiro' s 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 300 color and black-and-white images. Schapiro' s images take us behind the scenes of this epic and inimitable cinematic saga, revealing the director' s working process, capturing the moods and personalities involved, and providing insight into the making of movie history.
