@cinemense: In 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗼𝗱𝗳𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿, one thing is sacred above all: family. Vito devoted his life to his family. Michael tried to define himself outside it, embracing America over his Sicilian roots, only to return to them. Philosopher Simone Weil called rootedness “the most important and least recognized need of the human soul”: our fundamental need for a sense of belonging. That idea lies at the heart of 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗼𝗱𝗳𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿: family is the center around which power and redemption will revolve. #thegodfather #alpacino #cinema
