The Godfather: Part III Neutral evaluation

2022-01-25 08:02
Although the story of the third-generation godfather Vincent is not fully revealed in the movie, in the first half of his life, he can already see a certain tragic premise-giving up his love for power; assassination is like a father in order to get rid of the threat. The uncle who raised him; hired a murderer, but killed his lover Mary by accident. This kind of potential fate writing itself can also make an intertextual comparison with the director Coppola’s growth history as an Italian immigrant. The fate journey from being poor to starting from nothing, and finally dreaming broken, is both the Corleone family's experience, and the same. It is also what Italian immigrants have experienced in history.  
In "The Godfather 3", Michael completed the transformation of his family business, and as a result, his daughter was assassinated, "the old had nowhere to rely", and died alone in the manor. This is very different from Vito Kryon's old age. All this corresponds to the theme of "The Godfather 3", "All the power on earth can't change destiny". When social morality expanded to the entire social life, the family-centered morality of feudal lords, aristocrats, and the underworld faded away. Any individual or even family-based confrontation turned into a futile effort to resist fate.

    #常看常新# How good is Michael's confession paragraph? Al Pacino is still handsome when he is old, still flashing cunning in the silence, but after all, the godfather is old and powerless, Mary's silent cry after being shot is really amazing . The dancing memories at the end of the movie are too teary, and the people he loves are far away from him. Sofia Coppola's acting skills really make it impossible to look directly at...

    [B+] Compared with the unquestionable artistic temperament of the first two films, this third film still has a hint of "fried cold rice" commercial flavor. It’s also hard not to let people go after the matter: if Paramount gives Coppola more time to polish the script; if the film production process can be less chaotic but in an orderly manner; if Winona can participate smoothly at that time ...Although it doesn't make much sense to say it now, but if it can happen, then this great trilogy will definitely have less regret in the hearts of the audience.

The Godfather: Part III quotes

  • Joey Zasa: I earned that territory with my talent. Commission gave it to me, and you approved.

    Michael Corleone: Yes.

    Vincent Mancini: Hey, Uncle Mike, I came here for the party. I'm not here to ask you for any kind of help. I could just kill this bastard. He's the one who needs the help.

    Michael Corleone: So kill him. What does all this have to do with me?

    Vincent Mancini: Well, he's going around behind your back saying "Fuck Michael Corleone" all the time. See, that's one thing it has to do with you, right?

    Vincent Mancini: [to Zasa] Say it to his face one time, say it to his face. ONE TIME!

    Joey Zasa: Mr. Corleone, all bastards are liars. Shakespeare wrote poems about it.

    Vincent Mancini: What am I gonna do with this guy, Uncle Mike. WHAT AM I GONNA DO WITH THIS GUY!

    Michael Corleone: Joey, if there is some guy running around this city saying "Fuck Michael Corleone," what do we do with a piece of shit like that? He's a fuckin' dog.

    Joey Zasa: Yes, it's true, if anyone would say such a thing they would not be a friend, they would be a dog.

    Michael Corleone: My interests don't conflict with Mr. Joe Zasa's.

    Vincent Mancini: Oh you don't know how much your interests conflict with Mr. Joe Zasa's, Uncle Michael.

    Connie: He needs your support, Michael!

    Vincent Mancini: Don't let me work for this guy no more, Uncle Mike. Let me come work for you.

    Michael Corleone: For me? As what? Tough guy? I don't need tough guys. I need more lawyers. Since we have no conflicts, no debts, I accept your tribute. I wish you well. Vincent, make your peace with Mr. Joe Zasa, come on.

    Joey Zasa: [Vincent hugs Zasa] Bastardo.

    Michael Corleone: [Vincent bites Zasa's ear and Zasa is taken out of the office] Oh, Jesus Christ! Close it.

    Vincent Mancini: Hey Uncle Mike, I told Connie this wasn't the right time for this. I mean, I know you're into bankers and Wall Street but everyone knows you're the final word, you're like the Supreme Court! All I want to do is protect you from these guys and your lawyers can't do that.

    Michael Corleone: But you can.

    Vincent Mancini: Yeah, I can do that.

    Michael Corleone: And why should I be afraid of Joe Zasa?

    Vincent Mancini: Well, he knows you're stopping him from rising up in the commission, Uncle Mike. I say we make him dead. You give me the order and I'll take care of it.

    Michael Corleone: You'll take care of it? Maybe you should come with me for a few weeks. See what happens. See if you learn. Then, we'll talk about your future.

    Vincent Mancini: I won't let you down.

    Michael Corleone: Alright, go on.

  • Don Altobello: [regarding Vincent] This is the hero who put Joey Zasa in his grave. If we'd known of his existence, we would never have backed Joey.

    Don Lucchesi: No one wants another Joe.
