Godfather part II

I feel the same way as Carter about the family without Vito. Even though Michael is the new leader of the Corleone's, Vito was a stronger power and held the family together a little better than Michael. I found the abortion news also very surprising, but also, I kind of felt myself waiting for Michael and Kay's relationship to fall apart since it had so many problems and barley any communication. Even though the slap was a little dramatic, I understand why it happened. The fact that he was going to have a son and was to busy in the family business to realize it probably also made him feel guilty. Michael had so much stress building up inside him from everything going on lately in the movie and then the news of his family falling apart puts him over the edge. At the end of the day, he needed his family and when he found out they were leaving him, he couldn't control himself. The fact that he was going to have a son and was to busy in the family business to realize it probably also made him feel guilty.
