In 1945, the powerful head of New York’s Corleone family, Vito Corleone, receives requests at his daughter Connie’s wedding to Carlo Rizzi, a day that doubles as a quiet display of the family’s influence and all the quiet power behind their code. At the reception, his youngest son, Michael Corleone—a Marine and World War II hero who has deliberately stayed away from the family business—brings his girlfriend, Kay Adams, into the circle for the first time, offering a glimpse of a life that could be ordinary if the world allowed it. The celebration is interrupted by a plea from Johnny Fontane, a famous godson of Vito, who seeks help landing a movie role.
