Contrast of Family Life

Rating: 10/10 (10 September 1999)

This movie is a masterpiece - it works beautifully as a contrast of changing times and the disintigration of family values. The last scenes sum up the picture perfectly. The young Vito Corleone holds the infant Michael, proclaiming his love for him. Thirty years later the grown Michael coldly has his brother murdered. Try and find a movie that has more emotional tragedy than this one. The chronoligical video release of the first two movies totally loses the point of the second film.
