my godfather

I wasn’t very close to my father growing up. I don’t remember him being around most of the time. And when he was, I was scared of him more than anything else.

But what life deprived me, literature and film made up for.

Vito Corleone was and remains to be the formidable father figure in my life.

And to the man who played him brilliantly, thank you. sleep soundly with the fishes.
