The Godfather: Difference between revisions

Line 205:

* [[Legitimate Businessmen's Social Club]]: ''Genco Imports'' serves as the front organization for Don Corleone, is not explicitly portrayed as a paper thin disguise however. The criminal activities in New York are referred as [[Double-Speak|'the olive oil business']].

* [[Lolicon]]: Woltz likes little girls in entirely the wrong way, as was revealed in the novel. See [[Break the Cutie]] above.

* [[Lonely At the Top]]: Michael at the end of ''Part II''.

* [[Lonely at the Top]]: Michael at the end of ''Part II''.

* [[Mad Magazine]]: ''The Oddfather'', ''The Oddfather Part, Too'', and ''The Oddfarther Part ZZZ''.

* [[The Mafia]]

Line 289:

* [[Reality Ensues]]: {{spoiler|Sonny's death}}, as well as the death of the Dons.

* [[Reality Is Unrealistic]]: A minor case, but the use of the word "Don" was so impacted by this film that most people are unaware of the proper form of address. In real life, the word "Don" is used in conjunction with a persons ''first'' name rather than their last. Thus, "Don Corleone" should be "Don Vito" or "Don Michael." This is of only minor importance in the movie itself, and there is occasional use of the proper form of address, but public perception of the the Mafia in particular (And Sicilian/Italian culture in general) was so defined by this move that most people are unaware of the correct usage.

* [[~~Re Cut~~]]: ''The Godfather Saga'', a special presentation of the first two films on [[NBC]] television in 1977, reassembled them into a strict chronological narrative, adding more than an hour of previously-unseen footage while deleting other scenes that were deemed too intense or violent for network TV. In 1992 Coppola stitched all three films together for the home video presentation ''The Godfather Trilogy: 1901-1980''.

* [[Recut]]: ''The Godfather Saga'', a special presentation of the first two films on [[NBC]] television in 1977, reassembled them into a strict chronological narrative, adding more than an hour of previously-unseen footage while deleting other scenes that were deemed too intense or violent for network TV. In 1992 Coppola stitched all three films together for the home video presentation ''The Godfather Trilogy: 1901-1980''.

* [[Redemption Rejection]]: Michael in the third movie. As his priest puts it, while Michael can be forgiven for his sins, as long as Michael himself does not believe he can earn forgiveness, he will never truly change his ways.

* [[Remember the New Guy?]]: Frank Pentangeli in ''Part II''.
