My take on the relationships in the godfather (kay, michael, and apollonia)

This might be a controversial take, but I’m a fan of Apollonia x Michael and not Michael x Kay. It reminds me of like when you have a crush on someone but never act on it, Kay realized too late that Michael was her real love and by then he was gone already anyways.

~~~~~~~

A lot of people discuss about Apollonia’s age and how young she is, at the time in life this was normalized and she is the age of a adult in Sicily so I don’t think it mattered too much especially since it wasn’t too much of a significant age gap. I believe he went to Sicily to get away from it and wanting sort of a rebound or escape from that life, and when he first met Apollonia wasn’t thinking much. As time goes on, you can see how Michael’s love for her grows in the short time they have together.

~~~~~~~ I also think he was determined to marry her so fast is because he takes a lot of pride in his family and compared to Kay, Apollonia is someone who his family would accept and due to him not being home for a while I feel as if he could see his family within Apollonia. A lot of people state that Kay symbolizes what he wants to be, and Apollonia symbolizes what he really is I think whilst this is true, there is no changing someone who was raised in this way or lifestyle.

~~~~~~

Also at this time period a lot of people got married after meeting someone for the first time so that also makes sense (i know a lot of relationships like this that actually lasted too!!) With the small language and cultural differences they had (I’m pretty sure Michael could speak italian but not sicilian dialect, as a native in sicilian dialect I can confirm the two are very different) you could see the pair grow through their facial expressions as there love got stronger, and while I’m adamant to end this on a sad note we all know where this leads and I think I’ll conclude by discussing how upset he was after the whole situation.

~~~~~~~ I think in the end he did regret how he treated Kay but it was mostly due to his life being with her now and Apollonia being gone. What is even worse is that in the book Apollonia is pregnant… which I’m surprised they didn’t include in the movie because it would make Michael have more depth behind his emotions and I feel like it would have been more powerful for his character overall.

anyways rip to our sicilian princess
