Eulogy For Godfather

Decent Essays
Godfrey has very quickly become a valued member of the advisory. He is an active participant in discussions and always works to help out. He has made friends and appears to be used to the Lausanne Way. During the first advisory sessions, I asked him about his most difficult class or the class that he would like to change something. He expressed his French class was a little challenging, I have been checking his grades in French and he has done a good job so far but I am sure he can do better. I would recommend you to keep an eye on his Biology class.

During the recent trip, I could see Godfrey making new friends and he was always on time for all the activities. His participation was very active and he seemed to enjoy all the activities.

    Since his main purpose of coming to America was school, it boosted his motivation to do well by a great amount compared to mine. Even though I was able to get by in a lot of my courses, there were a few exams where I would not put in as much effort or a couple projects I would slack on. This difference between immigrants and those born in America is a wary area though because not all students are built the same way. I think the fact of whether a student is an immigrant or not is important, but there are several other factors that can push them in a certain direction as well. The school in which they are assigned to may be that deciding factor.…

    Any lover of film will almost invariably link this quote by Don Corleone to The Godfather (1972). Even an eight-year-old me could identify the name of the film, even though I had not yet been able to enjoy the masterpiece. I vaguely knew what the film was about: violence, crime, something about family and business, and mafioso culture. However, apart from the most iconic scenes, I probably would not have been able to watch a clip and decisively state, “Oh, I know this movie—isn’t it like called The Godfather or something, right?”…

    One large theme in this movie is the mixing of the sacred and the profane. In this essay I am going to prove that over the course of the movie The Godfather (1972), directed by Francis Ford Coppola, Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) transform from a young man completely uninterested in his family’s business into the ruthless Don of his family. As Don of the Corleone family, Michael is constantly scheming to ensure the survival of his family over the other families in New York. Coppola’s mixing of the sacred and the profane helps to show Michael’s transformation into Don Corleone. Over the course of the movie the presence of the profane grows thus causing a decline and subsequent death of the sacred.…
