You’d have likely been better off watching the Godfather first my friend, hard to go straight into Part 2 as it loses so much. The trilogy is very much to do with Michael Corleone and his rise and fall, the man whose father didn’t want him anywhere near the family business.
I recall Coppola saying “the tale of a great king with three sons: the oldest was given his passion and aggressiveness; the second his sweet nature and childlike qualities; and the third, his intelligence, cunning and coldness.”
It’s the descent into tragedy that grabs me, never meant for him but he found it all consuming.
