The Godfather

Though his family came from Corleone, Sicily, The Godfather shot their town scenes somewhere else in the 1970s. The next best thing was Savoca, Sicily. This place is similar in appearance and size to Corleone. Both of these locations were built into the side of a mountain that overlooks the Mediterranian Sea, pretty wild. Bar Vitelli and the church where Al Pachino got married are both located in this seaside town.
