175+200=375min = 6hr 15min

so this version is 49 min longer = 7hr 4min

Only downfall is their showing it all in one sitting with no adverts.

Although I feel the parallel editing and use of flashback makes The Godfather Part II one of the greatest films ever made and a joy to watch, this is still a fascinating idea. It would be, from what I can remember, close to the novel in terms of structure, so I'd love to see it and hope it shows in the UK on a channel without adverts, even though that necessitates concentrating for just over seven hours!
