FFC cut out all the boring stuff, and all the weird sex-organ-deformation stuff, and that made all the difference for me. It seemed like Puzo couldn't decide between writing a mafia book or a porno sometimes.
I would agree that FFC left out the less interesting stuff from the novel. However, I would have liked to see the following from the book:

1) inserted into the beginning of the GFII film: the scene between Kay & Hagen, where Hagen is sent to bring Kay home

2) a flashback scene showing Luca Brasi killing the 6 Capone men

3) a flashback to a young Santino telling Vito that Santino witnessed his father murdering Fannucci. [/b]
4)The old lady in Sicily who asks Michael what happened to Luca Brasi. And that she tells the story of the Irish girl and the baby. It would have made Luca a lot more scarier if FFC putted that in the movie. smile
