Finished watching this last night & it is, without a doubt, the best new series I've seen this year, loved every single episode. The acting talent is beyond brilliant. A special nod has to go to the casting agents who did a spot-on job.
Whether you're a fan of The Godfather or simply like films, I thoroughly recommend this. I've always wondered exactly what it is that a producer does & now I know, & quite frankly it is a lot more than I thought. Also, it goes to show that it is remarkable that The Godfather ever got made. If you are a fan of the film but haven't seen it for a while, a rewatch before watching The Offer might be a good idea.
If you're thinking that you don't want to shell out for yet another subscription service, honestly, this is worth paying a one-off fee of £6.99 & then binge-watching within a month & then you can cancel. Alternatively, take up the 7-day free trial & binge in a week (there are only 10 episodes ), or use the Walkers offer which is a free month, I think it expires at the end of the year.
If you're interested in knowing more about Bob Evans, he has a brilliant autobiography called The Kid Stays In The Picture, which is also the name of the documentary mentioned in this thread & is still available to download from Sky Documentaries.
Having seen The Offer I would love to see a similar series about the making of Coppola's other classic film, Apocalypse Now ( and yes, I am aware of the documentary Hearts of Darkness but it would be good to see a dramatisation of the making of the film as well ).
