Chilling, yet beautiful.  How a man's love for his family draws him into a life of unspeakable violence is the subject of "The Godfather," directed by Francis Ford Coppola.

The understated performances of Al Pacino and Marlon Brando, along with the somber cinematography of Gordon Willis, provide a sobering contrast to the explosive violence that is a part of this family's way of life.

The 1972 classic is coming to the historic Bay Theatre in Seal Beach.
