The Godfather Part 3
Is Godfather 3 all that bad? As Michael tries to redeem himself, can a viewer find anything redeemable in Coppola's 1990 conclusion to his trilogy? Mike and Dan talk to their first guest: Professor Jon Lewis, author of Whom God Wishes to Destroy: Francis Ford Coppola and the New Hollywood. They ask Professor Lewis about his take on the film and wether it suffers from what Mike calls a "lack of urgency." There are also some interesting digressions about the career of Al Pacino, the 70s as the perfect decade in which Coppola could work, The Irishman, and the degree to which Godfather 3 pushes the postmodern envelope. Special thanks to Professor Lewis for the visit! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/15minutefilmfanatics/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/15minutefilmfanatics/support
