The movie Godfather must be watched several times. The first time I saw this movie was when I was in high school, I just watched the plot, and I felt that it was too long to read. After a few years, I watched it again and thought it was good to watch, but it was still not enough. Now that I have a certain experience in life and then look back at this movie, I finally understand why a classic movie is a classic movie, just like reading a classic novel. As the mind matures, the understanding of the work becomes more and more different and deeper.

The success of the first generation of godfathers, and the coercion of the second generation of godfathers (there will be a very in-depth analysis of the life of the second generation of godfathers in the next two or three chapters), as well as the helplessness of the alternation of old and new, in our rapidly developing world. Society can find shadows. Unlike the second generation of godfathers, our contemporary young people are not forced to accept, but actively transform. This is different from the second generation of godfathers who have to take over the business and make changes. The second generation of godfathers has enough However, he ignored that his father, the first-generation godfather, did not want him to become a gang leader like himself at first. In the bones of the second-generation godfather, there was already a new-style American idea, which was different from the traditional one. Sicilian is no longer the same. It is also doomed to the tragic life of the last second-generation godfather.
Nowadays, our lives are changing in a variety of ways. Young people are constantly looking for new things. Those who feel out of touch with the times are the older generations who have become famous. Young people and the older generation have conflicting ideas and different ways of doing things.

The Godfather quotes

  • Capt. McCluskey: I thought I got all you Guinea hoods locked up! What the hell are you doing here?

    Michael: What happened to the men who were guarding my father, Captain?

    Capt. McCluskey: I pulled them guys off of here, eh, now get away from this hospital!

    Michael: I'm not leaving until you put some guards around my father's room.

    Capt. McCluskey: Phil, take him in!

    Cop with Capt. McCluskey outside hospital: The kid's clean Captain, he's a war hero! He's never been mixed up with the rackets...

    Capt. McCluskey: Goddamn it Phil, I said take him in!

    Michael: What's the Turk paying you to set up my father, Captain?

    Capt. McCluskey: [to Patrolmen] Take a hold of him. Stand him up. Stand him up straight.

    [punches Michael and breaks his jaw]

  • Sollozzo: [to Michael, in Sicilian] I am sorry. What happened to your father was business. I have much respect for your father. But your father, his thinking is old-fashioned. You must understand why I had to do that. Now let's work through where we go from here.

    [Michael tries speaking in Sicilian, but can't express himself properly, so with a quick look at McCluskey they both switch to English]

    Michael: What I want... what's most important to me is that I have a guarantee: no more attempts on my father's life.

    Sollozzo: What guarantees could I give you, Mike? I'm the hunted one. I've missed my chance. You think too much of me, kid. I am not that clever. All I want is a truce.

    Michael: I have to go to the bathroom. Is that all right?

    Capt. McCluskey: You gotta go, you gotta go.

    [Michael gets up, but a suspicious Sollozzo probes Michael's crotch, to Michael's offense]

    Capt. McCluskey: I frisked him. He's clean.

    Sollozzo: Don't take too long...

    [Michael heads to the bathroom]

    Capt. McCluskey: [to Sollozzo] I frisked a thousand young punks.
