ok I always thought there were three parts of this movie...
but I seem to have a special release with all the three parts just in two tapes...
could somebody tell me the exact moment in which part one ends?
is there any moment in part one in which there are flashbacks?
I am confused

Thats correct.
1 ends with Mikey taking over the business after the Don's death and moving to Vegas.
2 is Mikey's story with the Don's life in flashback.
3 is all that is with Andy Garcia.

The trilogy was also re-edited into chronological order for American television.

FADE FROM BLACK: Int. of Don Corleone's home office -day
BONASERA (seated in front of the Don's desk, facing the camera)
I believe in America. America has made my fortune. And I raised my daughter in the
American fashion. I gave her freedom, but -- I taught her never to dishonor her family. She
found a boyfriend; not an Italian. She went to the movies with him; she stayed out late. I
didn't protest. Two months ago, he took her for a drive, with another boyfriend. They made
her drink whiskey. And then they tried to take advantage of her. She resisted. She kept her
honor. So they beat her, like an animal. When I went to the hospital, her nose was a'broken.
Her jaw was a'shattered, held together by wire. She couldn't even weep because of the pain.
But I wept. Why did I weep? She was the light of my life -- beautiful girl. Now she will
never be beautiful again.
[Bonasera breaks down. The Don gestures to Sonny to give Bonasera a drink]
Sorry...
[Bonasera, taking the drink, sips from the shot glass]
I -- I went to the police, like a good American. These two boys were brought to trial. The
judge sentenced them to three years in prison -- suspended sentence. Suspended sentence!
They went free that very day! I stood in the courtroom like a fool. And those two bastard,
they smiled at me. Then I said to my wife, "for justice, we must go to Don Corleone."
VITO CORLEONE (sitting behind his desk, petting a cat)
Why did you go to the police? Why didn't you come to me first?
BONASERA
What do you want of me? Tell me anything. But do what I beg you to do.
VITO CORLEONE
What is that?
[Bonasera gets up to whisper his request into Don Corleone's ear]
That I cannot do.
BONASERA
I'll give you anything you ask.
VITO CORLEONE
We've known each other many years, but this is the first time you came to me for counsel,
for help. I can't remember the last time that you invited me t

/\ That's the start of pt 1 /\
------------------------------------------------
\/ End of part 1 \/
MICHAEL
Don't ask me about my business...
KAY
No.
MICHAEL (as he slams his hand on the desk)
Enough!
(then)
Alright. This one time [Michael points his finger] -- this one time I'll let you ask me about
my affairs...
KAY (whispering)
Is it true? -- Is it?
MICHAEL (quietly, shaking his head)
No.
KAY (after a sigh of relief and Michael kisses and hugs her)
I guess we both need a drink, huh?
[Kay leaves the room to fix Michael a drink. At the same time, Rocco, Clemenza,
and Neri enter the office. Clemenza shakes Michael's hand. Kay turns her head to watch
them. They embrace Michael, then kiss his hand.]
CLEMENZA (kissing Michael's hand)
Don Corleone...
[Rocco kisses Michael's hand as Neri shuts the door blocking Kay's view]
The screen blackens to indicate...
THE END

if thats the begining of part 1 then I ve seen another film
what I saw as part one started with the story of vito since he was a boy and his family was killed and he had to leave to america, then how vito (de niro) started his business in new york... killling that man that wanted him to pay him 200$ each month... and then he goes back to sicilia to get revenge.... and the next thing you see is marlon brandon in his daughter´s wedding and there is when that man asks him for justice and all that... (so this scene that you say its the begining of part 1 is like after an hour and a half in the film I just saw...

God this IS confusing!
"What're the differences between the Godfather video boxed sets?
This can get very confusing. Here's the brief of it: The Godfather Epic [out of print] is the chronological version of Parts I and II released on video. It has more footage than the original two films. The Godfather Saga [not available for purchase] is the TV version of The Epic, but has much more footage. Most of this extra footage ended up in The Godfather Trilogy* set [Re-released in 1997], which is the chronological version of all three films, available on video. The Trilogy set is the one you should get if you want the most available footage. It also contains the Making-Of tape, The Godfather Family: A Look Inside. The Godfather Collection is simply the three original films in a box - no added footage, and not in chronological order (but remastered/widescreen in 1997). The Godfather Collection (Limited Edition) includes The Godfather Legacy* book and a card signed by Francis Coppola."

hummmm sounds like you've seen Part 1 to me. The flashbacks in Part I & II can be confusing, DeNiro is in both movies. i prefer Part II of all III movies, it's just sooooo solid. i really need to get the DVD collection, i've seen these movies so many times, i never get tired of seeing italian movies!!
CLASSIC FILM!

1. DeNiro is only in Part II 2. They're American movies, not Italian.
