Instagram of a group dinner celebrating a gallery opening for painter Julian Schnabel. At first glance, the photo seems to be extremely ordinary with a bunch of empty plates. The “Godfather” star can be seen alongside other friends, including Mick Jagger’s ex-girlfriend Noor Alfallah, 28. But the talk of the night wasn’t the sighting of Pacino and Alfallah leaving together — everyone had their eyes on Pacino’s phone case.When Marie Bardi, social media producer at the “Blank Check” podcast, brought the phone case to Twitter’s attention, the photo soon went viral.“Al’s headphones continue to be iconic,” she writes about Pacino’s oft-seen wired headphones.

the first installment of Francis Ford Coppola’s “The Godfather” hit theaters on March 24, 1972, revitalizing the career of Marlon Brando and making a star out of Al Pacino. To celebrate the momentous occasion, the film was just re-released in theatres, and the entire trilogy had been painstakingly restored and will be out in 4k Ultra HD for the first time in March.“We felt privileged to restore these films and a little in awe,” said Andrea Kalas, the senior vice president of the archive for Paramount Pictures. “We were able to witness first-hand how the brilliant cinematography, score, production design, costume design, editing, performances, and, of course, screenwriting and direction became famously more than the sum of their parts.”Here, cast and crew recall some memorable moments from behind the scenes of the cinematic masterpiece.“Robert Duvall, Jimmy Caan, and even Marlon participated in a lot of pranks and fun on the set.

The first character seen in Francis Ford Coppola’s “The Godfather” is neither the title character, Don Vito Corleone (played to Oscar-winning perfection by Marlon Brando), his son and eventual successor Michael (Al Pacino, in his breakthrough role), nor, indeed, anyone from the brood at the story’s center. Instead, it is a decidedly secondary character, the undertaker Bonasera (Salvatore Corsitto), who also speaks the first line of dialogue, one of the most definitive opening thesis statements in the history of American cinema: “I believe in America.” This is not where the story of “The Godfather” – first told by Mario Puzo in his novel, then adapted to the screen by Puzo and Coppola – begins.

“House of Gucci” is now in theaters and people are absorbing the over-the-top cast doing their best (and sometimes not-so-good attempts at) Italian accents as they portray the opulent Gucci family. Though critics have either been in love with the choices on-screen or absolutely against the campy nature of the performances, the Gucci family itself is not happy.

Excess is synonymous with the Gucci brand. The haute couture institution invites its customers to share in the opulence enjoyed by its founding family through their merchandise, imbuing each slouchy dress and chic little purse with the luxury of their palatial Italian villas and matching fortunes.

Lady Gaga and Adam Driver, a true story of murder and greed, and the most incredible, sought-after fashion in cinema history.Unfortunately, director Sir Ridley Scott was unable to merge these fabrics together cohesively, meaning movie fans are left with an expensive-feeling but bloated and uneven drama.The film is based on the 2001 book The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour and Greed by Sara Gay Forden, and follows the true story of Maurizio Gucci (Adam Driver)’s murder and his ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani (Lady Gaga), who was convicted of hiring the hitman who killed him in 1995 – years after their marriage fell apart.It also focuses on the bitter drama and jealousy riddled in the Gucci family, which eventually

Lady Gaga’s accent in the new film “House of Gucci” sound remotely Italian?Nyet!As Patrizia Reggiani, the crazed woman who had her fashion mogul husband Maurizio Gucci killed in 1995, Mother Monster comes off as Russian as Boris and Natasha, Mikhail Gorbachev and a cold bowl of borscht.She’s as authentic as the rest of Ridley Scott’s puffed-up, ponderous drama whose quest for Oscar glory officially ends today. Arrivederci!The abysmal “Gucci” would get a better grade, perhaps, if it was a term paper titled “How to Make the Assassination of a Famous Person Boring.” Mystifyingly, the front-page killing and ensuing court battle only take up the last 10 minutes of this sleep aid.

Lady Gaga has us all reciting a prayer to the Gucci gods. ET's Lauren Zima talked to thecast about how one of the film's most memorable lines came to be.«That was something Jared [Leto] and I came up with together,» Gaga, who stars as Italian socialite Patrizia Reggiani, who went to prison for hiring a hitman to kill her ex-husband, Maurizio Gucci, said of the now-viral prayer.When asked if the line was always part of the script, the 35-year-old pop star revealed that the spontaneous one-liner was improvised, but it quickly stuck after giving it a go the first time around.«Father, son and house of Gucci? Well, it was the first time, and then we kept it.» Gaga revealed.
