The scene of the immigrants on the ship standing up and looking at the statue of liberty with all the hope of the world is getting right at my heart. Very very moving.
@Guaina2 Жыл бұрын
the statue is the leitmotiv. In the beginning of the clip is hope, at the end Vito is in Jail for quarantine, and life shows his trhue face. Vito watches the statue. What does he feels we can only argue.

It's distressing, because everything they do is in vain... Because they soon realize that they only exchanged the poverty of their countries for the poverty of America. Lucky Luciano made this quote.

At the beginning, that may have been true but they paved the way for a better life for their future generations.

I think Coppola made this scene also as a tribute to his ancestors.. who migrated from Italy to United States of America.

I always got the feeling that the “quarantine” was just a means for them to give Vito a temporary place to stay, since he was an unaccompanied child who didn’t speak English.

Smallpox was still a thing back in 1901 and they took it seriously because there weren't any immunizations for it back then.

The genius part of the music score is, the climax part has been played exactly when the camera shows the face of the immigrants where you can read hopelessness, fear and unknown future. Many director would have hit the climax when the statue shown but this is seriously a master piece that he emphasize absolutely another point with this amazing music.
@iamlegq27 күн бұрын
Most immigrants certainly face fear of the unknown future, but hopelessness is definiely not common. In fact I read the faces of those immigrants as exactly the opposite, fear yes, but at the same time hope for a better future.

Always some people side with oppressor but also is some people who said that is not right and with all risks, help the boy to escape to safe. Under the circumstance joined to thousand of people at that times came to America.

I always liked how brief the Communion scene is, and how abruptly it cuts to the party scene. It helps drive home the point that this day isn't really about Anthony. The true purpose of all this pomp and circumstance is to prop up Michael's image as a loving patriarch and humanitarian, so that Senator Geary will help him push through his casino deal.

My great grandparents from both sides came through ellis island in the early 1900’s from Italy. My grandpa on my dad’s side would always tell us stories that his my great grandpa told him. Ellis island is a very emotional place. That’s where many of our ancestors began their American dream.
