Did you know The Godfather production set up shop at the Norton family's home on Staten Island for a whole year and a half? In the early '70s, 110 Longfellow Avenue became the site of the Corleone mansion—and Mrs. Norton filmed about 8 hours of behind the scene footage (check out the interview with her son below), which will hopefully end up on DVD one day.
