THE GODFATHER PART II (1974) 9:30 p.m. on IFC. There are two big reasons Francis Ford Coppola’s revered mob sequel is worth revisiting this month: Roger J. Scorsese’s new mob movie, “The Irishman,” pairs Al Pacino and Robert De Niro, who each had one of the biggest roles of their career in “The Godfather Part II.” The films would make a natural (if very long and gruesome) pairing. The second “Godfather” movie also came up this month in the trial of Stone, where a text message Stone once sent asking an associate to “do a Frank Pentangeli” came into play. For memorable lines about “an offer he can’t refuse” and a muscleman sleeping with the fishes, see the original movie, THE GODFATHER, which will air at 5:30 p.m. on IFC.
