Ironically, that's how I first found this website, by doing word searches for Michael Corleone. I discovered the trilogy last year, but recently re-watched it, and spent an unusual amount of time attempting to discern why I liked Michael so much, in spite of his horrific actions. The bottom line is what you wrote in your article, that he exhibits manly behavior. There is nothing more attractive than a man willing to do anything to protect his family, who has the intelligence and self-control to remain calm in even the most dire of situations.

The world could use more manly men in it. I can see why your wife would love these films — I do too! Ironically, that’s how I first found this website, by doing word searches for Michael Corleone.
