Wow. Turning a conventional gangster movie into a variety of social metaphors.

“...into a variety of social metaphors.”

Better the Godfather than Darwin.

It’s the tragedy of how a good-hearted person, like Michael Corleone got sucked into his Father’s world.

The metaphors are clearly there. It’s filled with Classical allusions. It’s not really conventional either. What film was like it before that?
