Coppola has recut The Godfather Part III into a 158-minute edit entitled The Godfather, Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone.
The final chapter of his gangster trilogy was mired in controversy throughout production, which Coppola believes was exacerbated by his decision to cut the hair of Michael Corleone actor Al Pacino.
Even Pacino’s co-star, Diane Keaton, stepped in, telling the director: “You can’t cut Al’s hair!
“I did it and I didn’t know why I was so sure I was right to do it”.
