Meet the family that gave us Francis and Sofia, Talia Shire and Nicholas Cage -- and brought The Godfather saga into the world. A charming portrait of the extraordinarily creative Coppola clan, which numbers acclaimed filmmakers and actors and generations of musicians, The Family Whistle traces the family from its origins in the abject poverty of southern Italy to the glory of the Academy Awards and Radio City Music Hall. Full of delightful insights into the characters and settings that inspired key aspects of The Godfather and the Corleone family, the fast-moving film is a joyful addition to film history and a moving study of the Coppolas' enduring connection to the land of their origin.
