sters after him in an attempt to kill him, which might have a little to do with an interesting scene involving Vincent biting off a chunk of Joey's ear.They fail or something. His son Anthony doesn't want to go into the family business (he sort of finds the idea repulsive) and wants to become an opera singer, which Michael doesn't really support. Michael tries to buy his way into the Vatican by offering help out with some of their debt in the form of $600,000,000. Michael calls a meeting for all the prominent mob bosses and declares himself "out" and forks over a bunch of money to the dudes that had shares in the casinos. Then a helicopter comes by and blows almost everyone away, Michael survives but has a stroke and is hospitalized. Eventually, he moves to Sicily where he re-marries and contemplates the meaning of life (his in particular). A dude hires a professional assassin to assassinate Michael. While they are watching the opera Anthony is in, Vincent's thugs assassinate the pope, an archbishop, a swiss banker, and Don Luchese. The professional assassin then makes his move and shoots Mary, then Vincent shoots him.
Francis Ford Copola's three godfather movies have a lot in common, but with several major differences. Part III is more intellectual, psychological, and subtle than the other two, wheras the
other two are a bit more in your face. One of my favorite things is how some rather unique death threats were made in the Godfather series. One of the most prominent being the prized racing horse head in the first movie. Another aspect of the Godfather movies is that although the third movie is made 18 years after the first one, all three could be watched in sequence and it would seem quite fluid and seemless, Coppola did a good job making it flow as sort of one story, though, all three movies could stand alone as individually being good movies.The Godfather movies, all 9+ hours of it stand as some of the greatest movie goodness of all time, and will remain so for a long time to come.
