    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Nearly all of Vito's dialogue is in Sicilian. Robert De Niro spent four months learning to speak Sicilian.
    • Goofs
      During Roth's birthday party, the pattern on his shirt changes. Due to weather difficulties, the two minute scene took over a week to shoot and the original shirt was lost at some point. The production designer attempted to recreate it by drawing an approximation of the pattern onto a plain shirt, but it didn't quite match.
    • Quotes
      • Michael Corleone: My father taught me many things here - he taught me in this room. He taught me: keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.
    • Crazy credits
      As with the first film, no opening credits are shown. Although it is now commonplace for films not to have opening credits, it was considered innovative in 1974.
    • Alternate versions
      In the German theatrical version, all Italian dialogs from the young Vito Corleone's scenes were dubbed into German, as well as the English and Spanish dialogs from Michael Corleone's scenes. The original Italian language for this footage has been only restored for the movie's DVD release in 2002.

    FAQ7

    • Was Vito really mentally challenged like his mother claimed (a common belief back then for mute children), or why did he never speak as a child?
    • What caused Vito's raspy voice as an adult? Was it because he had smallpox as a child?
    • What is 'The Godfather: Part II' about?
