Progress Report: #4

#4: Watch all of AFI's 100 best movies of all time
Last night, J and I watched the #3 movie on the AFI list: The Godfather!



Finally, a movie both J and I enjoyed! While the movie is long (2 hours and 57 minutes - Justin was surprised at the 1.5-2 hour mark after a big exciting climactic part that it wasn't the end), it's full of excitement and suspense. An added treat was seeing some great actors when they were young - Al Pacino, Diane Keaton, Robert Duvall, James Caan (I quizzed J at the beginning to see if he could recognize the actors).

Here are some links to Godfather reviews:
