The beginning of "The Godfather 2" is a tortuous and explosive scene that makes all the audience unable to stop. The suspense makes the entire shot meaningful.

The audience didn't know what was going on. Although there were a few subtitle reminders before, those subtitles were obviously not enough.

Just when they were in a state of enthusiasm, the next shot calmed them all down.

The gate of a manor, the high walls, the huge iron gate, the complex decoration and the guard standing guard with a gun on the door all show that the people in this building are extraordinary.

The mother took Victor's hand and came to the front door, followed a thug in.

In the restoration of the manor, birds sing and fragrant flowers, gorgeous flowers bloom in the sun, birds sing on the branches, and next to the high-legged table, an old man in his fifties in his fifties was sitting on a chair drinking wine. Life was obviously very beautiful for him.

Under the care of the guard, my mother brought Little Victor to the old man with a very humble attitude.

The mother lowered her head and kissed the old man's hand, almost kneeling down.

"I greet you, Mr. Qiqi, bring my highest respect." My mother looked at the tall old man, with respect in his words and begging.

"This woman is dizzy! Why did she take her children to her enemy?" Sam Warner immediately slapped the table when he saw this scene. The audience obviously saw that the old man was the local leader who killed a father and son in the family. Many people did not understand why the mother did this and why she took her son to her enemy's house so humble.

But more people were silent, especially those women, who knew the heart of a mother better than men, and for her, her own children were undoubtedly the most important.

The local leader looked at his mother and little Victor with his chin raised his chin and smiled. He looked at the mother and son, just like a wolf looking at his prey.

The mother hugged the little Victor and begged, "Mr. Qiqi. You killed my husband because he refused to surrender to you. At the funeral of my husband, you killed my eldest son Paul. Because he vowed to take revenge. Mr. Qiqi. My son Victor. Now is my only relative. He is only nine years old. He has no strength, timid, cowardly, stupid. He will never hurt anyone..."

The mother's purpose was coming. The local leader suddenly understood. He looked at the thin child standing in front of him. He shook his head: "Although he is very young now, he will grow up. He will become strong. When he grows up, he will come back to take revenge."

"Mr. Please forgive him!" The mother walked to the local leader and fell to her knees: "He is my only relative. I swear to God. He will never harm you, whether it is now or in the future."

"No! Impossible!" The local leader looked at his mother and shook his head.

"brute!"

"It's a villain! I don't even let my child go!" He shouted. For them, the mother and son were obviously weak, and sympathizing with the weak was almost everyone's common idea.

The subordinates standing next to the local leader picked up the gun and walked towards Little Victor. Little Victor's life was about to be lost.

Many viewers began to cover their eyes.

At this time, the mother, who was kneeling at the feet of the local leader, suddenly stood up, grabbed the fruit knife in the fruit plate on the table and held the local leader.

"Don't move! Otherwise I'll kill him!" The mother forced the local leader, and all the subordinates were stunned.

"Victor, run! Keep running!" the mother shouted at Victor.

Little Victor was frightened and ran towards the gate of the manor.

"Run!" the mother looked at Little Victor and shouted loudly.

A subordinate next to him saw that his mother was distracted, rushed over and knocked off the ground knife inside his mother's hand. The local leader took the opportunity to escape, then took out his gun and shot at his mother repeatedly.

My mother lay down on the ground and died of anger!

Little Victor ran to the gate of the manor and looked back at his mother lying on the ground, bursting into tears.

"Kill that child! Kill him!" the local leader screamed.

If the killing at the funeral at the beginning suddenly caused the audience to talk passionately into the movie, then the one-sided massacre that happened in the manor completely shocked the audience.

They never thought that such a prey on the weak would happen. They never thought that a mother could do such a thing to protect her children. They even thought that the old godfather, who was so glorious in the first part, had such a childhood.

Next, the camera turns.

At night, the cross above the church in the town looks extremely tall under the moonlight. The town is very lonely and there are not many people on the streets.

"Let me listen to you. Anyone who hides this child will be punished!"

"With the reward of handing over that child, whoever hides it will end up with his parents!"

On the streets of the town, the local leaders shouted loudly with guns on their backs. No one in the town responded, and people closed the windows one after another.

Occasionally, a few barkings of dogs came, which made the tension in the town more and more.

The mid-scene shot. The church bell rang. It was early morning, and on the streets of the town, the subordinates who had been searching for a night were yawning one by one.

In one corner, a farmer picked up the little Victor and put it in the basket on the donkey's body and then put a lot of firewood and goods on it.

"Victor, we will pray for you! God bless you!" The farmers around them started to whisper.

At the exit of the town, several men with guns were wandering there.

"If anyone keeps that child privately, Mr. Qiqi will not let him go!"

"Take that child over and we will treat him well!"

The subordinates all shouted.

Dada, the donkey passed by them, and no one paid attention to the basket on the donkey.

The donkey left the town in full view of everyone and disappeared into the morning mist.

The low and melodious music sounded.

Wow! The audience applause was thunderous.

"Okay! This is a good idea!"

"I finally escaped!"

"This kid is so life-threatening."

The audience cheered for the escape from death of Victor, as if they were themselves who escaped.

A close-up shot, a star-striped banner waving in the wind, the lens is opened. It is a vast sea. The United States.

A boat sailed into the harbor, and there were people coming to the New World on the boat. They sat on the bed, sleepy, and the long-distance travel made these people very haggard.

A young man turned his face, and in the fog he saw the huge star-striped flag above the flagpole.

"America!" The young man pointed to the flag inside the fog and shouted loudly.

"USA!"

“The United States is here!”

The whole boat was boiling.

This scene also caused a burst of laughter to ring in the hall.

This shot is really familiar to the audience, because there are similar shots in "The Pianist at the Sea", and such shots have now become classic shots in Hollywood.

Among the crowd, a child looked at the huge American flag in the distance with his head held high and thoughtfully. He was so thin and particularly conspicuous among the cheering crowd. Others were family or paired, and he was the only one standing there alone.

Little Victor was like an inconspicuous straw in the crowd. No one paid attention to his existence.

He held a blanket, which was his only wealth. The sea breeze blew over, messing up his soft hair and covering half of the child's face.

The immigration hall on the dock. Immigrants who had just arrived in the United States lined up to register. These people came from all over the world, with different accents, French, British, German, Mexican, etc. They gestured to the immigration officer, said their names and hometowns, and were labeled differently.

In the corner, a doctor checked Victor's body. After the examination, the doctor took out chalk and drew a fork on his clothes and asked him to find the nurse.

The pale little Victor walked through the crowd with a blanket in his arms looking for the nurse. His weak figure made many viewers sobb.

At this time, he was not a godfather, he was just a poor child.

The nurse brought Victor to the Registrar with a hint of fear in her eyes.

"What's the name of the child?" asked the registrant.

Little Victor shook his head and signaled that he would not understand the registration.

Registering Guan waved to the side and walked past an American Polish policeman.

"What's the name of a child?" the policeman asked in Polish.

Victor Little still didn't speak.

The policeman picked up his badge and said casually: "Come from Corleon Village, Victor."

"Corion, Victor Corleon." The registrant wrote the name on the card.

He didn't know how prominent the name would be.

Little Vick, who was stripped of clothes, was inspected in detail and then taken by a policeman to a separate room where he would be quarantined for three months.

A simple room with only a bed, a chair and a bench. Little Victor put his blanket on the table and came to the window.

Outside the window is the vast sea. On the pier, the huge star-striped flag whirrs in the wind, and seagulls hover on the sea. This is the New World.

Little Victor stood beside the window, and the setting sun reflected a thin face on his face. This nine-year-old child looked at the huge world outside, but his eyes were surprisingly quiet. He walked to the chair, sat down, and looked at the window.

Outside the window, a huge oil tanker passed slowly, and the shadow of the tanker covered the window, causing the light in the room to dim a lot.

Little Victor sat in the dark, facing the window, and was alone.

"Victor Corleon, 1855. United States." A line of subtitles were displayed on the screen.

The 11-minute drama in the opening venue completely silenced the audience in the hall. It shows a child's childhood, twists and turns, and even dangerous childhood. The old godfather's childhood, no one would have thought that the old godfather's childhood was like this.

I turned my face and saw many viewers lowering their heads and touching their tears. The scenes on the picture deeply infected these viewers.

The screen gradually lost focus, and a child appeared. He was wearing a well-designed suit and a small parted hair.

"Anthony Corleon, descendants of Victor Corleon, 1932, Nevada." Then a line of subtitles made the audience sit upright.
