Apple's right, here. Clemenza would have been the perfect example of the changing times and the "Americanization" of the Corleones. He would have gone against Michael and it would have been terribly sad to see that. For that reason I'm glad Castellano held out (for more money and writer's "authority") and did not appear in Part II. He was my favorite character.
