Clipping Fredo wasn’t about vengeance or Fredo’s gripe with being passed over. The problem was that despite Fredo being dumb, he knew a lot about Michael and the internal workings of the Corleones. He could be manipulated again by Michael’s enemies or manipulated by the feds and become an informant like Pentangeli. But unlike Pentangeli who was shamed/threatened into recanting his confession by the presence of his brother at the hearing, Fredo would give everything up and there would be no way to stop him. So, Fredo was dangerous close and dangerous far away. Objectively, he had to be taken out. Michael regrets it because he is a family man at heart and he loved his parents and Fredo was their child (which is why he waited until Carmela Corleone passed away). But he still had to make that decision for the sake of himself and everyone else. Being the leader, he had to bear that burden and give that horrendous order. It’s easy for Connie to ask and beg Michael to spare Fredo but she wasn’t wearing the crown.

32:32 I’m pretty sure this is wrong. I don’t think Michael has any intent of seperating from his family here. At this point he’s bought all the way in and is even in hiding in his family’s country and region etc. Michael being love and first sight with appleonia if anything likely makes him realize he’s more like his family after all and he’s loving that part of it and likely thinking it’s all worth it for the sweet love he’s found and connection to his roots via doing something that needed to be done. With appleonia he can have a type of wife that he couldn’t and doesn’t ever have with Kay. A wife well suited for the life he was going to be living, either a life associated with his families mob ties home in America or his root home in Sicily. He was prob thinking that he could teach her the American habits he wanted her to have and not have the ones he didn’t want her to. And he was probably right. Ironically though it’s one of those habits that leads to her death.

It's important to let people know The Godfather was released during the 70's years, which were the greatest time of American movies ever according to Quentin Tarantino and several filmmakers emerged like Scorsese, Ford Coppola, Spielberg or the own George Lucas with his Star Wars franchise. Unfortunately, those Hollywood's golden years will never be back.

I'm 60 years old and the movies that came out then were fantastic. You could understand the actors as they spoke. Today's movies I need subtitles to understand them. People seem to be mumbling their way through the movie and the music is too loud. The studios still held their actors to a code of conduct, even though you still had scandals, but they were dealt with quickly.

I think it’s a shame and misinformation, when you spoke of how immigrants were treated, coming through Ellis Island, you said that America was largely built by Eastern European immigrants. That’s a lie. America was built by slave labor.

To be honest, this analysis is almost as enthralling as the movie itself. Brilliant work! In the final analysis, it reminds me of the book, 'The Old Man and The Sea', a demonstration of the futility of man's struggle. It then brings to mind, the admonition to live in the present.

Part 3 really shows the decline , stresses and impact of leading a criminal organization. It really shows what happens when you dedicate your entire life to a cause but at the sacrifice of losing your family. Family was the entire reason Michael chose to take the mantle but just like a business owner who dedicated their life to a business it consumed him. Died alone, wasn't worth it

Immigrants are also different in regards to coming here legally and in good health. The sick & dying were rejected at Ellis Island. Little Italy was imposed upon non-English speaking legally arrived immigrants. In another generation, as they became fluent in English, they were allowed more jobs.

Also, the character analysis of Michael's wives misses the point that both of them represent his two different countries. Michael sacrifices his legitimate life and reputation to protect his father, and is sent to Sicily. Apollonia represents Sicily personified. But she's destroyed, because Michael can't live in that world any more than his father who fled it many years before. Then Kay represents America of the 1940s-50s. She willingly embraces his life, knowing that he's a criminal, but believing that he has good intentions. When it's clear that Michael will never stop using criminal means to secure power, she destroys his future by unaliving their third child before it's born, and his split from her is like the very end of the old ways of his influence-peddling father. There's no more love for America in Michael. Just hate. People often miss this, but think of the beginning of the first film "I believe in America" and the end of the second, in which Michael slams the door on his ex-wife Kay (representing his connection to and love for America), and then kills his own brother.

This video seems to say that Vito was against war with the 5 Families, and Michael waited until he was dead to unleash a war. But that's not what happened at all. Vito actually planned the murders of the heads of the 5 Families with Michael, and they'd been waiting for the right time to carry them out. Then Vito died, and that pushed plans a little in advance. That's all clear from both the film and the book.

The analysis is all wrong. The Godfather always wanted Michael to be possibly Senator or President. But Michael’s fate was sealed when he killed the drug dealer and the police officer. Yet he always told Kate that he would turn the family business into a legitimate business. Then take care of all the family business on the day of the baptism.
