Thanks Turnbull for the welcome. I had to have arrangements made to have me return safely and cleared of all false charges against me.

All great points, especially about her not really being accepted by Vito. Yes, many times opposites do attract. I just found it a little unusual for Kay and her background to be attracted a to crime family. Its not like the Corleones were low lever number writers of loan sharks. She was introduced with the story of how Vito got Brasi to get Johnny released from his contract, with the band leader.

I don't think she really thought she could change Mike. I think it was more of a situation where she liked the "perks" that was given her, due to the income Mike had with his "business". Like other wives she just turned a blind eye to what was going on.

To me,though, she didn't fit into the mold of other mob wives such as in Goodfellas.
