The original guys had rules and followed them. No killing civilians, no selling drugs, kept your word, strong family. That is why they were called men of honor and resect. These are not my terms. I have read a lot about Joseph Bonanno he is far from a sociopath. If you research the original godfathers they are not all the same.
I don’t know how you can watch thee portrayal of Brando which is based on Bonanno and not see honor in the character. The reason I refer to the godfather is among Italians it is felt the picture was more than a mafia movie it accurately portrayed the culture of Italian families of the day and I don’t mean mafia families the relationships of the blood related. The opening scene of the wedding and the people asking favors of Brando on his daughters wedding day for example.
I have explained my use of the phrase so I am out.
Bonanno is a criminal! No ifs ands or buts!
Maybe you & I have different definitions of sociopath.
