More from MoviesAll three "Godfather" movies are coming to Blu-ray disc Sept. 23, just two years after the format launched. That's twice as fast as it took Paramount Home Entertainment to release the acclaimed trilogy on DVD.
Both "The Godfather" and "The Godfather Part II" underwent extensive frame-by-frame digital restoration that took more than a year to complete and was personally overseen by director Francis Ford Coppola.
In addition to those two films, "The Godfather: The Coppola Restoration Collection" includes a newly remastered version of "The Godfather Part III."
The four-disc Blu-ray collection also will include an array of new special features, including five documentaries (also presented in high-definition), a "Godfather" family tree, a crime organization chart and four short films on the "The Godfather."
