Francis Ford Coppola cut scenes from "The Godfather" that angered actor James Caan. Caan: "I was so angry, I couldn't watch the rest of the movie" The deleted scene took place at the time when Sonny takes the reins of the family business.
It is possible that some of the deleted scenes will appear in a special edition of the film at some point in the future, says Alex Rocco. The Godfather was released in 1972 and is considered to be one of the greatest films of all time.
