“The only remarkable thing about Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather, Part II is the insistent manner in which it recalls how much better his original film was. Even if Part II were a lot more cohesive, revealing and exciting than it is, it probably would have run the risk of appearing to be the self-parody it now seems…Its insights are fairly lame at this point.” IfsSelfSeemsRunningFilmRiskExcitingOriginalsInsightRemarkableRecallsRevealingAppearingLameParody Author:Vincent Canby
“In this land of unlimited opportunity, a place where, to paraphrase Woody Allen, any man or woman can realize greatness as a patient or as a doctor, we have only one commercial American filmmaker who consistently speaks with his own voice. That is Woody Allen, gag writer, musician, humorist, philosopher, playwright, stand-up comic, film star, film writer and film director.” MenFilmOpportunitySpeakStarsVoiceRealizingLandGreatnessDirectorsMusicianDoctorsPatientPhilosopherComicFilmmakerConsistentlyUnlimitedPlaywrightWoodyHumoristsGagsFilm DirectorsParaphraseFilm Stars Author:Vincent Canby
