His character is almost but not immediately rounded as the story had progressed. Michael had the choice to do it. The sound of the train, by the look of it, given him the motivation to do it swiftly. As you can see, the way he had killed both Sollozzo and McCluskey was different than what was expected of him. What can we make of that?

Women and Family in The Godfather
"A man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man."
This blog post is to discuss the many symbols within the film.
the current symbols we have are:
The Godfather himself
the picture above
Orange which apparently foreshadows death
red clothes referred to as the scarlet woman
the rose in the Godfather's hand and pocket
If there are any more symbols, please let me know by commenting on this blog.
