How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

An epic sprawl across generations of organized crime told with formal precision and moral gravity, watching power consolidate within a single family as innocence calcifies into ruthlessness. This chronological reconstruction lets you trace the slow poisoning of the Corleone legacy from Vito's noble beginnings to Michael's darker reign.
