i love the godfather, too!

here's the story regarding that cat:

"The cat held by Marlon Brando in the opening scene was a stray the actor found while on the lot at Paramount, and was not originally called for in the script. So content was the cat that its purring muffled some of Brando's dialogue, and, as a result, most of his lines had to be looped."

lucky cat!

Yeah! It's Marlon Brando stroking the cat that immediately pops to my mind whenever The Godfather movie is mentioned.

Talk about the lasting effect that cat has on movie fans.
