It began as the GODFATHER OF MATH, evolved into the GOODFATHER OF MATH. Now this. Go figure...

Fifty Years Ago This Month, THE GODFATHER Was Born

I'm talking about myself.
I should be talking about
I don't know why
I get on about myself.
I don't know anybody else.

    THE GODFATHER premiered on March 15, 1972
    thereby planting the seeds for
    The GodFather of Math,
    a trilogy in six parts that might
    never have existed if it weren't
    for this film.

      Mario Puzo wrote an astounding novel
      that evolved into a film trilogy
      that astoundingly improved
      on the book.

      I had the distinct privilege
      of meeting Barry Malkin,
      a very soft spoken man who edited
      THE GODFATHER TRILOGY.

      We spoke for close to an hour
      at the Katonah Library where
      Mrs. CarPeo had been a volunteer.

      I met Marlon Brando in my dreams.

      What man hasn't done that?

      My favorite Marlon Brando dream
      had him running around Central Park
      being chased by Larry David
      wielding a golf club

    I am a woman who prefers to dream about Katherine Hepburn.
    She is always knocking on my door asking for a waffle recipe.
