Did Michael Really die? We are led to believe it, but since he was a diabetic, how about he suffered another stroke? Alone? While in bed he dreams of the time he went to Sicily to bring back Turi Giuliano, and we re-present the book in movie form the way that it should have been originally. The Sicilian was also a great piece of heroic literature. Not entirely representative on the subject matter, but well written never the less.
