10 Movie Locations That Became Immortalised Thanks To Fans
5. Savoca, Sicily (The Godfather)
The Godfather holds its place as one of the defining films of the gangster genre and can claim to be a part of arguably one of finest trilogies ever made.
So with that acclaimed backing - from critics and fans alike - it didn't take long for those who swore by the Corleone family to want to breathe in the location of many of the original Godfather's iconic moments.
Savoca, Sicily in Italy was home to its fair share of scenes from the feature and fans have made a point of pilgrimaging to the quiet coastal town, in an effort to feel like an honorary member of the family.
Sites such as Bar Vitelli - where Michael asked Senor Vitelli for his daughter's hand in marriage - and the church where that wedding took place, are all available for fans to immerse themselves in at their own discretion.
Similar to Kathmandu, Savoca also offers their own 'Godfather Tours' that not only guide you through the film's locations, but in fact treat you to some background information on the history of the Sicilian mafia - with enough Sicilian food and wine to make you feel like a native.
Here lies another site that has benefitted from the consistent appreciation of a legendary flick and will command a place in mafia-film buff's hearts for eternity.
