Francis Ford Coppola’s re-edit of The Godfather: Part III gets official trailer

November 17, 2020 - Staff@seenituk

Paramount Home Entertainment has released an official trailer for The Godfather, Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone, Francis Ford Coppola’s re-edit of The Godfather: Part III which arrives in select cinemas from 5th & 6th December and on Blu-ray from December 8th when it’ll also be available to Download & Keep from digital stores.

Pre-order from Amazon.co.uk*

The film restores Coppola and Mario Puzo’s original vision for the franchise’s finale.

Coppola and his production company American Zoetrope worked from a 4K scan of the original negative to undertake a painstaking, frame-by-frame restoration of both the new and original versions. 

The restoration team began by searching for over 50 original takes to replace lower resolution opticals in the original negative. This process took more than six months and involved sifting through 300 cartons of negative.  

American Zoetrope repaired scratches, stains, and other anomalies that could not be addressed previously due to technology constraints, while enhancements were made to the original 5.1 audio mix. 

“For this version of the finale, I created a new beginning and ending, and rearranged some scenes, shots, and music cues,” said Coppola in a previously released statement.

“With these changes and the restored footage and sound, to me, it is a more appropriate conclusion to ‘The Godfather’ and ‘The Godfather: Part II’ and I’m thankful to Jim Gianopulos and Paramount for allowing me to revisit it.”
