Live in the Midwest? Love The Godfather? Enjoy eating Italian specials suggestive to violent movies? Then you must come to this special event just outside Chicago, co-hosted by The Scorecard Review's own Nick Allen. Be amazed at the digital restoration of an American classic, and even more impressed by the co-hosting of two Chicago film critics (Allen will be joined by Mark Dujsik, of Mark Reviews Movies). Here's the menu of Italian dinner specials - a helping of knowledgeable discussion also included. It's an offer you probably can't refuse - more details below!

  • “GODFATHER” themed Italian dinner specials in Bogart’s – located on the second floor of Muvico Theaters Rosemont 18,
  • Film discussion hosted by Chicago Film Critics Association members Mark Dujsik and Nick Allen

Chicago Film Critics Association members Mark Dujsik (of Mark Reviews Movies) and Nick Allen (of The Scorecard Review) will introduce the Saturday December 8 showing of “THE GODFATHER”. Mark and Nick will also moderate a post film discussion to discuss the impact of “THE GODFATHER” on the film industry and American culture.    

“THE GODFATHER” digital 4K restoration

Widely regarded as an American classic, “THE GODFATHER” was not properly preserved. For decades, the original negative was used to create release prints causing considerable wear to the negative.  A print run in the 1980’s caused severe damage to the original IB Technicolor negative.  Recently, at the request of Francis Ford Coppola, film preservation expert Richard Harris spent a year digitally restoring “THE GODFATHER,"  which, according to cinematographer Gordon Willis, now looks as good as it did in 1972.

Muvico, in association with the Chicago Film Critics Assiciation, is proud to present a 40th anniversary screening of the 4K digital restoration of “THE GODFATHER” projected by Sony 4K digital (the digital equivalent of 70mm).
