The entire crowd gave the three stars a standing ovation, after which Francis addressed the audience.
“I feel moments like this should be sincere and brief and I’m so grateful to my two wonderful friends who have come here to help me celebrate with you this project that we began 50 years ago with really the most extraordinary collaborators, many of them legends,” he said. “And so many of them, I can’t take the time to list them all, but you know them all well. So I can only thank two, from the bottom of my heart.”
The director then thanked Mario Puzo, the author of the original Godfather novel and co-writer of the 1972 screenplay, as well as producer Robert Evans. He concluded his speech by saying “viva Ukraine,” which both Robert and Al echoed.
