The family is only when people are there. The old godfather relies on prestige to guard the family, and Mike relies on majesty, so betrayal is never allowed. When a person is afraid of you, he will subconsciously protect himself and make a way out for himself. The old godfather taught Mike how to establish prestige and how to calmly confront the enemy, but ignored the education of family and affection. Mike is also very lonely. He hopes his family and people can understand what he has done. But he ignored that people are gone. What is the point of guarding this family? The old godfather is because of his family, because the people who worked for him, in order to protect them, must maintain the status of the Corleone family. Allow them to live a safe and happy life, while Mike is for his own safety, for the Corleone family, he will never allow betrayal, only by getting rid of them will he be safe. I really feel sorry for Mike. His loneliness is destined, and only he can feel the pain. Both are very classic, man and man. Worth pondering.

    It's sad to see. A generation of godfathers went from nothing to friends all over the world, with the glory of the family and the warmth of the family. But the second generation of godfather was destined to be alone in his life, and his decision was out of place in the family: young people dropped out of school to join the army, returned from the army, wanted to live a normal life, and did not get involved in his father's career. However, his father was killed, his wife was killed, the eldest brother was reckless, and the second brother was weak, forcing him to give up his personal dreams and was ordered to carry a family in danger. On this road, he was betrayed by his brother, his wife left, and his sister hated him. He was always alone. Many shots of the movie were given to Al Pacino, sitting alone in the corner of the sofa, so hard, lonely, and strong

    I watched the 4K version at the Shanghai Film Festival, De Niro was too awkward, and Pacino's charm was overwhelming.

The Godfather: Part II quotes

  • Michael Corleone: Fredo, you're nothing to me now. You're not a brother, you're not a friend. I don't want to know you or what you do. I don't want to see you at the hotels, I don't want you near my house. When you see our mother, I want to know a day in advance, so I won't be there. You understand?
