You would know that better than I do. Still, I think things could have happened like it did in The Godfather.
Sure, it had its moments.
To me, the most spot-on part of the movie was when Carlo got smacked around by Sonny. That could easily happen in real life, and they filmed it right on Pleasant Avenue in East Harlem, about a block away from where my grandparents lived when they first came to this country.
You can't put a price on realism like that .
