I don't think Michael Corleone is conflicted much. . .The ending with him seeing himself with his father leaving Italy could be a regret, or not--hard to say, but the internal conflict isn't driving the story. I haven't seen THE GODFATHER since it was released, so I can't be sure. But what you're saying seems right to me. Initially Michael wants no part of the family business. He looks forward to marriage with a Protestant girl and a career suitable for a Cornell lad. The attempted killing of his father angers him and makes him want vengeance, which puts him into the family business. But even then he tells himself and his brother that it's not personal, just business. Vito separated business and personal life – with the latter being genuinely warm. Michael was unable to do that. |
