You never know how lucky you might get flipping channels out of boredom. I turned on the TV an hour ago and stumbled across "The Godfather" on AMC as part of their #MobWeek, whatever prompted that. The DVR is faithfully watching it downstairs. It is a movie I have watched probably half a dozen times, but not in a while. It is coming through with full power. Marlon Brando is amazing. His portrayal of Vito Corleone is a cultural icon, often imitated but never exceeded. (Loraine Newman in an encounter group skit on Saturday Night Live many years ago: "Vito, you're blocking!") I am not qualified to judge actors and actresses, or the relative importance of their roles, but I feel pretty confident saying this one is in the pantheon. Well worth rewatching.
