The Godfather - The Epic - 1901-1959

Take Godfather and Godfather Part II - edit to chronological order, add previously unseen footage and create perfection in Godfather form.

I've just spent over 6 hours watching it.

Sadly, only available on VHS... and was originally done for TV so is only in 4:3 - but I really didn't care about that. It's called The Epic, and it's right. Two of the finest movies ever made, made into the finest movie ever made.

My video editing skills may be getting a workout soon. VHS -> PC - closely followed by DVD/Bluray -> PC - then a step by step recreation using the best footage I can using the VHS video as a guide track.

I have the space, the computing power and the time to do it... I've got nothing else to do at the moment.

Track down a copy and watch it. It's superb!

Not sure how well known it is, but I hadn't heard of it before I saw it Inside I'm Dancing (also known as "Rory O'Shea Was Here" in the US).

Quote:

Michael Connolly is a twenty-four year-old who has cerebral palsy, and a long-term resident of the Carrigmore Residential Home for the Disabled, run by the formidable Eileen. His life is transformed when the maverick Rory O'Shea, who suffers from Duchenne muscular dystrophy, moves in. Michael is stunned to discover that fast talking Rory, who can move only his right hand, can understand his almost unintelligible speech. Rory's dynamic and rebellious nature soon sparks a flame in Michael, introducing him to a whole new world outside of Carrigmore.

I really want to see this (because of the job I have done for the last 11 years) but have never managed to. It was on telly a couple of months back but I missed it

Just reading through all the Hong Kong flicks made me remember "Encounters of the Spooky Kind" starring Samo Hung. Chinese vampires are somewhat different to western conceptions of them, and the fight scene in the restaurant with the stool is awesome!

"The Victim" is another Samo Hung film that I really rate too. Very much of a "whodunnit" type plot with Samo's inimitable fighting styles shown off to great effect - I'm sure the ladies will like the fight in the bathhouse

Yes, I'm a fan of Samo
