Trivia
While the word "mafia" is never spoken in The Godfather, it is heard three times in this film, during the Senate hearings. Sen. Geary says, "These hearings on the Mafia... ". The committee Chairman says, "You are the head of the most powerful Mafia family in this country". Michael Corleone in his statement says, "Whether it is called 'Mafia' or 'Cosa Nostra' or whatever other name you wish... " See more »Goofs
Revealing mistakes: The 'solid gold telephone' is a fake. If it had been made of massive gold, it would have weighed 15-25 kilograms. Something a normal grown-up man can lift, but not without noticeable exertion. See more »Quotes
