Oh, I think the GF was replete with anti-semitism. For example, did you ever notice a menhora in the film? What about blintzes at dinner or going to synagogue? No bar-mitzveh either and Connie's wedding was definitely not a Jewish wedding. Not one of the Don's soldiers was Jewish and they all apparently worked on Saturdays. Then there's the infamous command by Don Corleone: "Give it to a Jew Congressman in another district." Madonne!
And may I ask why these things would be there? I mean as far as I know the Corleone family is italian, and if Connie is italian, and marries and italian, then why would the family have a jewish wedding if they are catholic?
