Kate is another female character that would benefit from shutting up. She is by far the most useless character in all of the Godfather franchise.

Is the baptism scene one of the best pieces of film ever made? I believe so. I first watched this movie with my father when I was around 10. I did not understand some of the adult themes, but I knew it was brilliant. It has been my favorite movie since my first screening. Thank you for another great reaction.

Yes, also the shot of him in the chair with the camera slowly moving around him is a direct comparison to how the Don was introduced.

I appreciate the lack of disrespect to NJ in this reaction. I fully expected this to occur when Michael's driver approached the NJ boarder than did a u-turn. Thanks for not hating on me and my people!

Does anyone else think that Michael’s swollen jaw and the way it temporarily altered his speech was a way for the film to signal that Michael was becoming the godfather? It mimicked the way Brando spoke and looked as Don Corleone, which was achieved by placing an object inside his cheek.

Mr L, the sexism is ruining this for me. Life was not better for those innocent rural women, it just looked better to the men who had full control of women’s lives. There’s a reason why most people executed for witchcraft (or adultery) in those lovely old societies were women.

You said you've seen Scarface? In that case it makes sense why Michael looks familiar

Early in the movie you spotted a couple of actors and asked if they were famous later in life. You were correct. the 1st actor (consigliarie) is James Caan, the second actor (Michael) is Al Pacino.

Holy Shit-balls! What a reaction!! I knew you would love the film Sir. It's a Classic for a reason , as is Part 2. (Which I do hope will be dropping very soon.) I decided not to comment on the other topic BTW. But , Fun Fucked Up Fact - The horse head was real. Coppola did not like the prosthetic head , so they picked a horse that was set to be killed for dog food , I believe , and used that. I can't thank you enough for finally getting to this Trilogy. So ready for Part 2!! And we get The Sopranos Season 2 Episode 1 this week!! You are the MAN Sir!! Peace

So glad you’re doing this now before Sopranos gives too many spoilers. Naturally, Tony and the gang in New Jersey love the Godfather films. Tony’s guy Pauli even has a bit of the Godfather theme music as his car horn. 😎

Divorce wasn't really an option in 1970. Even in 85 when my parents divorced, I was the only person I knew who had divorced parents. Women really hadn't hit the workforce much in early 70s so women didn't have an outlet to escape. Hitting a pregnant woman forfeits you right to life so I wouldn't have had a problem with Sonny's actions. I had none with Michael's. Wife beater and he set Sonny up to be butchered. Bye Bye Felecia. Having said that divorce could have been an option for Connie but she would never have left him.

Michael went back to Kay, because he wanted to preserve what little was left of the man he was. Which is to say a memory, nothing more.

Beat me to it. Needed Godfather 2 yesterday. 3 while a decent end to the story(I guess) Is without a doubt the worst one, which still makes it better than 80% of the movies we get nowadays😂

Divorce in an option if abuse is happening, in my opinion

Quick question. What should a person do if their spouse starts to put their hands on you after you are already married (not sure if this is the case for the sister or not)? If divorce is not an option (whether because of your culture, personal values, or some other reasoning), should the person being abused stay, or should divorce be an option in that type of situation?

Don't wait too long until you watch Godfather 2. Your recent polling whether you should wrap up series should start here. lol. Well, you can take your time getting to 3 but 2 is my favorite of the series. Get to it soon.

I 100% agree. Don't put hands on someone and expect them not to come back at you. Man or woman, keep your hands to yourself.

Maaaannn, the cold/flu that is going around right now just lingers, and lingers. Don't be surprised if you still are feeling a bit sick even three weeks from now. Feels like it's over then creeps right back.
