Also Known As:
Mario Puzo's The Godfather: Part II (USA) (complete title)
Son of Godfather (USA) (working title)
The Second Godfather (USA) (working title)
Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) brutally consolidates his power over the underworld, but yearns to go legit while his family disintegrates around him. A second intertwined narrative flashes back to Little Italy at the turn of the century to chronicle the rise to power of young Vito Corleone
