Reviews
"A streamlined version of the back story, highlighting the difficulties that swirled around the production…The beauty of The Annotated Godfather is that it puts all this in context, while making sure we never lose sight of the most important element: the film… Jones takes us inside the process to see the odd mix of serendipity and inspiration that resides at the center of any great work of art."— David Ulin, Los Angeles Times
"Film historian Jenny M. Jones takes control of this project in marvelous fashion. We get the entire shooting script of the original film, plus deleted scenes, cool sidebars on how the film was adapted from the book, behind-the-scenes tidbits on cast and crew, continuity goofs and obvious bloopers, and a series of introductory essays that consider the enormous production undertaking."—BookPage December ’07 issue
