Godfather Part 2

La-La Land Records, Paramount Pictures and Geffen Records proudly present a remastered and expanded Limited Edition 2-CD release of acclaimed composer Nino Rota’s (8 1/2, LA DOLCE VITA, THE GODFATHER) Oscar-winning original motion picture score to the 1974 masterpiece THE GODFATHER PART II starring Al Pacino, Robert Duvall, Diane Keaton and Robert DeNiro, and directed by Francis Ford Coppola. This deluxe release of Nino Rota’s brilliant score marks the 50th Anniversary of the classic second film in THE GODFATHER saga - arguably the greatest sequel of all time - and its iconic music, both of which have cemented themselves into our culture for eternity. Beyond the composer’s artful reprisals and interpretations of first film’s legendary waltz and love themes, the music of PART II soars further with Rota’s emotional new themes and explorations that enrich the film’s epic nature. And the Academy took note - among the film’s eleven Oscars, including Best Picture, the composer won for Best Original Score.

Francis Ford Coppola's legendary continuation and sequel to his landmark 1972 film, THE GODFATHER, parallels the young Vito Corleone's rise with his son Michael's spiritual fall, deepening THE GODFATHER's depiction of the dark side of the American dream. In the early 1900s, the child Vito flees his Sicilian village for America after the local Mafia kills his family. Vito (Robert De Niro) struggles to make a living, legally or illegally, for his wife and growing brood in Little Italy, killing the local Black Hand Fanucci (Gastone Moschin) after he demands his customary cut of the tyro's business..

While he attempts to link the Corleone's finances with the Vatican, Michael must deal with the machinations of a hungrier gangster seeking to upset the existing Mafioso order and a young protoge's love affair with his daughter.
