This week on Cast-A-Role, we’re breaking down one of the most iconic films in cinema history: The Godfather. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola and starring Marlon Brando and Al Pacino, this 1972 classic didn’t just redefine the gangster genre — it changed movies forever.
In this episode, we unpack:

The transformation of Michael Corleone and what it says about power and identity
Key performances, unforgettable scenes, and why they still resonate
The real-life inspiration behind the Corleone family and the legacy of mafia films
