I'd just like to mention that the only suit I ever bought (I'm only 23 so there'll be more!) is a 3-piece black (striped) suit with a waistcoat. I got it long before watching the Godfather(s) but I noticed that all my favourite Michael scenes have him wearing the very same suit!!!!! From the scene where he tells Tom he's no longer consigliere, through to the abortion scene with Kay and where he loses his temper with Tom after Cuba!
Haha now I can do my Michael impressions whenever I wear that suit!

If you want to go all the way, dont forget the fedora worn by Mike to complete your ensemble cool

Yeah but he didn't wear the fedora in Godfather II (my favourite). What I really need is one of those long black overcoats he wore when u see him walking across the snow or when he was in Pentangelis house.

Very true, in fact I think he only wore the fedora in the one scene when he comes back to America and confronts Kay. Im guessing that FFC wanted to show Mike's transformation into being the don.

For the record, he was wearing his Marine uniform, not a military outfit.

Is it possible for us to have a conversation about Michael Corleone without 1 of about 3 women commenting about how "cute" or "handsome" or how sexy he looks? Is that too much to ask???!?!?!!!!

If winners never lose, well, then a loser sure can sing the blues.

I always figured they were trying to show the change in times. The fedora was in style circa the 1230s to the late 40s/early 50s. part II was in the late 50s/ early 60s. I think they just wanted to show the change in the time.

"Somebody told me when the bomb hits, everybody in a two mile radius will be instantly sublimated, but if you lay face down on the ground for some time, avoiding the residual ripples of heat, you might survive, permanently fucked up and twisted like you're always underwater refracted. But if you do go gas, there's nothing you can do if the air that was once you is mingled and mashed with the kicked up molecules of the enemy's former body. Big-kid-tested, motherf--ker approved."

I am the best look alike for Michael Corleone in the world because I look like him, dress like him, have the same past and present life as him and my family are exactly the same as his and I have the same name. So what do you say about that then Long_lost_corleone?.
