The success of "The Godfather 1" has given investors and audiences great recognition of Coppola. In 1974, Coppola collaborated again with Puzo, the original author of The Godfather, and during the filming of The Godfather 2, the author Puzo and Coppola had a disagreement over whether Mike should kill Frey, and eventually Coppola agreed with Puzo that he had killed his second brother, Fredo. The name was discussed for a long time before the film started, and the name of the movie was finally determined with "The Godfather 2".
"The Godfather 2" has two main lines, one is the history of the old godfather Vito Corleone, and the other is the story of how the new godfather Mike managed the Corleone family after the transfer of power. Let's start with Mike' main line, played by Al Pacino, who is giving his son Anthony a communion ceremony, attended by Senate Grey and his wife. The senator said to Mike in the study that if your family business is to expand, you need a license, as long as you give me a high profit, the senator will help him deal with it, here is a small detail The senator pointed the cannon on Mike's desk at Mike, reflecting the senator's oppression of Mike. However, Mike directly rejected the senator on the spot.
Another mafia veteran, Emmenros, sent his henchman Euler to Come to Mike and say that he supported Mike's casino and business scope. But Mike also knew in his heart that it would be impossible not to bring them benefits. That night Mike was assassinated, after all, he had been a soldier before, and his reaction was still very fast, and he escaped a disaster. In order to determine whether Hymenros is behind it, Mike takes his bodyguard to visit The Chassis of Hymenros. Mike, who came to Haymen ross's house, took the initiative to talk to Haymenros very closely, because he remembered the words of the old godfather, "Be closer to your friends, but closer to your enemies, so that you can know him better" After this meeting, Mike already had an account in his heart.
Senator Grey, on the other hand, re-entrapped Mike's trap, so that the senator's handle was caught by Mike. Mike and Haimen Ross went to Cuba for investment negotiations, when HaimenRos asked when the 2 million that Mike had given to the president would arrive, the second brother Frédo took 2 million cash and handed it to Mike, Mike asked him if he knew Euler of Hymenros, Fredo hesitated and said he did not know, then Mike became suspicious. Because Haymen Ross told Mike that I feel like your brother brought a lot of money over, after all, Fredo has only just arrived in Cuba, how would Haymen Rose know, in the club Fredo said to take everyone to the show, someone asked Fredo how do you know this place, and Fredo was overwhelmed by Euler who brought me here, and Mike next to him determined that his second brother Fredo betrayed him and his family.
There's a rebellion in Cuba, and Mike says to Fredo, "Come with me!" You're still my brother, and Fredo didn't go with Mike. Mike returned home, facing pressure from the government (because Mike was involved in black), because Mike had the handle of Senator Grey, Senator Grey has been defending Mike, and the hearing ended like this, the wife Kai saw that Mike had a lot of things to hide from her, and was very unintelligent about the real purpose of letting her go out, in fact, it was to protect the court, Kay thought that she was under house arrest, Kay had an abortion, Mike went crazy and gave her a slap, their marriage ended, Andymellos was finally killed by the people Mike arranged, The second brother who betrayed the family, Fredo, was also killed.
When you watch the second part, you may think that Mike is too cold-blooded, not as kind as the old godfather. In my opinion, one is that times are different, Mike has always been in accordance with the old godfather's will not want to let the high-ranking officials treat them as fools to accuse, Mike did it, regret did not complete the wish promised to his wife Kay is the family legalization within five years, Kai did not have the same old godfather as Mike's mother has always supported, Mike is lonely, no one understands him, but he has to do it.
Today I will introduce you to here, thank you for watching!
