Editing Details:
Also dubbed "The Novel for Television," The Godfather Saga tells the story of the first two movies in chronological order and includes 75 minutes of previously deleted scenes -- among them are Vito Corleone's first meeting with Hyman Roth and Sonny taking over the family after his father is wounded.

Now you can see this epic in honor of the 40th Anniversary of The Godfather. AMC aired The Godfather Saga all day (and then again all night) on Saturday, March 3, 2012. The best part? It was the world premiere of the saga fully restored and offered in HD. Consider it an offer any self-respecting Godfather fan shouldn't refuse.
