Epic film, gangster film and crime drama make this a useful anchor for a crime-focused collection. The Francis Ford Coppola credit is a creator connection; the numbered later films are separate catalogue entities. Its sourced runtime is worth checking before committing a single evening. The structured source identifies this as a film with a release year of 1972 and a listed runtime of 175 minutes. Credited creators in the imported record: Francis Ford Coppola.
