My first time I watched the whole thing was a few years ago. I was a freshman in college and had always wondered about La Cosa Nostra... I rented the trilogy DVDs from a Movie Galery and couldn't stop watching it... I didn't take the movies back for a year. I watched at least one of the movies every 2 - 3 days at least. Then I graduated and began buying all movies related to the mafia... i also checked out the book from the library when i was a senior... began reading it and actually liked it more than the movies... but i was "pledging" at the time and had no time to read it. I still have not completed the novel today, but plan on it very soon.
