How long did the godfather shoot? He likes the film very much.

1 971March 29th-1971August 6th, the filming time of "Godfather"1is very short, and we are still in a hurry. Coppola is under a lot of pressure. Paramount has been trying to fire him for weeks and even prepared a replacement director. There are also different voices in the crew, forcing Coppola to take the initiative to kill several unreliable staff members. Paramount didn't believe in Coppola's ability until Mike killed Sollozzo. There are many reasons for the contradiction between management and directors. The problems focus on the actors (Paramount doesn't like Brando and pacino), the story background (Paramount wants to shoot a modern play), the management doesn't want to go to Italy to shoot real scenes (to save money), and Gordon's photography is dark (open-air movies can't be played). Fortunately, Coppola adhered to many contradictory principles. After the success of "Godfather 1", the environmental conditions for filming "Godfather 2" were much relaxed (mainly making money).
