So I Just Watched The Godfather

The Godfather

And it really is the repository of all male behavior and idiosyncrasies, isn't it?

I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse

Women and children can be careless, but not men.

Never get angry. Never make a threat. Reason with people.

A lawyer with his briefcase can steal more than a hundred men with guns.

Never hate your enemies. It clouds your judgement.

Being kind to a fellow man is profitable, in every sense. Both personally and bottom line.

We don't discuss business at the table.

Fredo, you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against the Family again. Ever.

Leave the gun, take the cannolis.

In Sicily, women are more dangerous than shotguns.

I, too, don't believe in drugs. For years I paid my people extra to stay away from that sort of stuff, but someone comes along saying, I've got powders where if you put up a three to four thousand dollar investment, you can make fifty thousand distributing, then there is no way to resist it. I want to keep it respectable. I don't want it near schools. I don't want it sold to children!

I thought that the film was very empowering, and as a fan of gangster movies, I've got to say that this film deserves all of its acclamation.
