We've been getting it backwards. Instead of a sequel, how about a prequel. We tell the story of the Corleone family from the time they move out of Hell's Kitchen up to the scene in GFII when Michael announces he enlisted in the Marines.
The whole back story. Sonny beating the crap out of Fredo as a kid; Connie being spoiled; Michael being sullen but a first rate student. The development of the relationship between Vito and Hagen.....
All younger actors, even some unknowns.
"Io sono stanco, sono imbigliato, and I wan't everyone here to know, there ain't gonna be no trouble from me..Don Corleone..Cicc' a port!"
"I stood in the courtroom like a fool."
"I am Constanza: Lord of the idiots."
