He was literally a decorated marine captain during WW2 and experienced some action.
>>219063618Isn't he the youngest?
>>219063618He was younger than Sonny and wasn't all about the family at first. You watched the entire film, yeah?
They were lowlife criminals.
>>219063618>a decorated marine captain during WW2this doesnt have standing with them. remember the ending scene of II? everyone in his family except Fredo objected to this. to them he's the baby brother who didnt join the family business. he's basically Connie to them until the night in the restaurant
>>219063618brown families are like that. even though he was all those things, he was still the youngest and therefore the weakest/most spoiled/dumbest
>>219063618I always found this amusing. Michael had probably killed more people than all of them combined and been in way more dire situations overall but they treat him as if he was away on vacation and not in a brutal war.
>>219064509its understandable if you understand immigrant mentality. to them the US is to be used, not served. to them michael's actions were against the household because they werent directly contributing to the household
>>219064477Everyone knew fredo was the dumbest. They saw Michael as the intellectual, college boy.
>>219064755>immigrant mentality.Despite Vito coming over as a small child and all of his adult children only knowing life in America.
>>219065150some things are just genetic, as displayed>this country gave me hope, life and prosperity>lets commit crimes here, bribe their politicians and leaders, and teach my children to do the same
>>219064755>>219065454my moms side are italian immigrants and my grandfather (first gen) and 3 of his sons all served in the armed forced. many others in my extended family were/are also cops, firefighters etc. i feel like your generalization is more applicable for jeets, chinks and africans
Because their mentality is that if someone is educated he's a sissy.
>>219065454Weren't Italians the biggest ethnic group to serve in the American armed forces during ww2?
>>219065108Son wanted him to be an honest and legitimate individual. He outright states he didnt want Mike in the criminal activities.
>>219066265That's what Vito wanted for him.
>>219066735I meant to type don.
>>219065108Fredo was smaht, not dumb! Not like everybody says i am! I'M SMAHT.
