Vito Corleone and Michael Corleone as the Godfather

The unequivocal contrast between Don Vito Corleone and Michael Corleone in the film is the character and the portrayal in mind. Both their characters have same elements of propoganda, such as their reasonable negotiating skills. Don Vito is always known as a man of his word. He never refuses an offer, and "makes offers people cannot refuse." Michael had started out much different, as the son of the Godfather, he never wanted the life he was destined for and his father never wanted for him to live that way as well. Although Michael had learned everything from his father, such as having the reserves of politicians and judges, Michael had a hard time in gaining the better half of his life. Even the support within the caporegimes are waning. As Michael started to become head, his characterization, at first was a stereotyped character because of the attire, changed drastically when he had bonded with his father briefly in the hospital. the imagery of his facial structure and attire had become much in the style of the Cosa Nostra. I find it very interesting on how Michael would rather have people clipped immediately rather than make people suffer the way his father does business. It is an interesting nod to how each do their own business.
