G Character List Analysis of Major Characters Vito Corleone The Godfather trilogy presents Vito as the paradigmatic Mafia don. When placed beside him‚ Barzini lacks class‚ Don Ciccio looks cruel and petty‚ and Don Fanucci is smalltime and brutish. Even Michael‚ despite his tremendous successes‚ loses in such a comparison‚ as he appears lacking in warmth and joie de vivre.

The Godfather Rarely can it be said that a film has defined a genre‚ but never is that more true than in the case of The Godfather. Since the release of the 1972 epic (which garnered ten Academy Award nominations and was named Best Picture)‚ all "gangster movies" have been judged by the standards of this one (unfair as the comparison may be).
