biographical drama The Victim tells the story of “the best movie ever made”. This is the case Francis Ford Coppola The famous mafia masterpiece “The Godfather” from 1972.

Miles Teller Plays the main role as a producer Albert S Roddywho is undertaking a film-making project on Mario Puzos A relatively inexperienced book, the ten episodes of the miniseries, in fact, follow a very clear pattern:

Rudy and his gang of Coppola (Dan Vogler), Bozo (Patrick Gallo) and the hyper-efficient assistant/problem solver betty mccart (Juno Temple), faces a problem that needs to be resolved. And they solve it. But then a new problem arises. which they also solve. and so on.

And on the other side is the real-life mafia, who has opinions on how to portray it and how things should be done.

“Victim” is very long, very interesting in every detail of its story, and with a ruddy distinction. It is no exaggeration to say that this is a production with its head held high on its butt.

The Show will premiere at Paramount+ on April 29th.
