El Padrino de 1972 la adaptación de la novela de Mario Puzo, de Francis Ford Coppola, es ampliamente considerado como una de las mejores películas jamás hechas. Además de las poderosas actuaciones de Marlon Brando y Al Pacino e innovadora e influyente dirección de Coppola, los beneficios de la película de filmar en lugares auténticos en Sicilia y la ciudad de Nueva York. Una escena clave viene temprano en la película, cuando, mientras camina por un puesto de frutas fuera de su empresa frente Genco Olive Oil, Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando) es emboscado y casi asesinado por pandilleros rivales.
La escena fue filmada en locaciones en 128 Mott Street, en la ciudad de Nueva York, entre Hester y Grand, en el corazón de Little Italy. La producción aún no había publicado ninguna imagen de Brando en su maquillaje , por lo que fueron especialmente atentos a mantener los fotógrafos aficionados curiosos a distancia.
Eso no impidió que los fotógrafos más experimentados del New York Daily News, quien pidió ayuda a los amigos del barrio y se subió en la escalera de escapes de fuego vislumbrar el propio padrino con el pelo cuidadosamente despeinado para las escenas de su intento de asesinato.
