First teaser for The Offer series takes us behind the scenes of The Godfather

Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather is widely regarded as one of the greatest and most important films of all time, but its road to the silver screen was not an easy one for the now-celebrated filmmaker. 

In fact, turmoil behind the scenes almost prevented it from ever seeing the light of day. Its studio, Paramount, famously hated everything about the movie adaptation of The Godfather, especially its star Al Pacino, who would go on to become a superstar based on his Oscar-nominated performance in the film.
