The Don's Analyst (1997): cast, story & where to watch
1997 · Film
Released in 1997, The Don's Analyst is a comedy film directed by David Jablin, running about 105 minutes. “The Godfather wants to get in touch with his feelings. Now!” — that tagline sets the tone.
What it’s about. Don Vito Leoni, the Godfather, is clinically depressed. The world has changed and he hasn't. He'd like to retire, but if he left the "family business" to his two idiot sons, they'd be dead in a minute. So he decides to go legit, which convinces everyone that he must be completely off the deep end. To preserve their cushy lives, his dysfuntional family conspires to get him some psycho-therepy. So his boys kidnap a "piasan" shrink and order him to "fix" their father. This film, which premired on Showtime, pre-dated the very similarly plotted "Analyze This" by over a year.
Who’s in it. The Don's Analyst stars Kevin Pollak as Julian Reciputo, Robert Cicchini as Donnie Leoni, Robert Loggia as Vito Leoni and Joseph Bologna as Vincent DeMarco, among others.
