Fans of “The Godfather” already know that the award-winning movie is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. Voted among the best Hollywood films of all time, the popular flick sports one of the best casts to ever hit a screen and a story line set in Little Italy. To celebrate, Little Italy is holding a “birthday party,” this coming weekend, Sat., Aug. 13, and Sun., Aug. 14.

Many of the shots in the movie came from iconic locations in Little Italy, including the phone booth where the late James Caan made a fateful call. To mark the occassion, the Little Italy Merchants Association will be offering a free tour of “Godfather”-connected sites in Little Italy on both days at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. The tours start from Grand and Mulberry Streets.
