1.
Kay Adams (Michael's wife) is from New England, one of the earliest civilized areas in the United States, and comes from a Puritan family. But in G2, she chose abortion, which is absolutely prohibited in her belief tradition, to express her dissatisfaction with Michael. Therefore, Michael understands how much she hates him and knows that it is completely irreparable.
2. The
omerta (the Code of Silence) must be followed by every Sicilian. No one in the Mafia can violate this rule, so Fredo must die. So does Carlo, even if it’s Tessio who fights the world with Don Vito. This is why G2 Frank Pentangeli will retract the confession, he can't bear the betrayal of this principle in his bones.
3.
After all, Tom Hagen is of German/Irish descent (from a conversation with Sollozzo in G1), and his name is Irish first and German last name. Don Vito has positioned him as a family lawyer with legal status, a short-term family military adviser, Vito’s old military adviser Genco Abbandando has just passed away shortly before the start of the G1 plot, so Tom is temporarily in this position, who knows that the situation has changed...Genco It was the one who watched the show with Vito in G2, and was also the son of the grocery store owner who Vito was working at at the time. He was a child with Vito. However, there is no elderly Genco in G1, but Don Vito's company is still called GENCO IMPORT.
4.
Neri was trained as the new Luca Brasi. Unfortunately, in Godfather Trilogy, Luca and Neri's roles have been cut a lot. In addition, in fact, Tessio is slightly more loved by Don Vito than Clemenza, and he is more capable, but he has too few roles in the film.
5.
Don Fannucci is not a big man, he is just a villain who is accustomed to bluffing and blackmailing the common people. The real mafia man can't fish the neighborhood. The young Vito saw this sharply, and his keen observation was his success. key.
6. How did
Michael Corleone get acquitted by killing Sollozzo and Sheriff McCluskey in 1947? There is a narrative in the novel-a young man who committed a murder in another small family was found to commit the crime, but the film did not elaborate on it, which was slightly abrupt.
7.
Moe Green in G1 and Hymen Roth in G2 both have historical prototypes (Bugsy Sigel and Meyer Lansky). Just as Roth said in a hotel in Havana, their original experience is almost the same as that of Sigel and Lansky in history. No difference. And Michael's killing of Virgil Sollozzo and McCluskey is believed to be a tribute to Lucky Luciano for fixing Joe Masseira.
