Plot hole: When Michael is punched, the Don has just been shot and is near death. A gang war ensues and progresses. The Don recovers enough to be brought home. Michael moves to Italy, meets, courts, and marries his girl. Sonny is killed. Michael's wife learns to drive and is assassinated - and still, Michael has very visible remains of his black eye. Way too much time must have passed for this to be possible.
The Godfather (1972)
1 plot hole
Directed by: Francis Ford Coppola
Starring: Robert Duvall, Al Pacino, Diane Keaton, James Caan, Marlon Brando, Richard S. Castellano
Factual error: In the scene when Michael visits his father in the hospital in 1945 there's a NYC Fire Dept. sign on the wall with the name of the Commissioner, Robert O. Lowery, who was commissioner from 1966 to 1973.
Trivia: Marlon Brando won a Best Actor Oscar for his role as Vito Corleone. Robert DeNiro, who played the role via flashbacks in Part II, won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar. They remain the only two actors to win Oscars for playing the same character. Heath Ledger and Joaquin Phoenix both won for playing the Joker, but not really the same character, given the very different films and portrayals.
Question: What is the name of the melody/song that is played just after Michael shoots Sollozzo and McCluskey? It is played while you see some newspapers with big headlines etc.
Chosen answer: The mattress montage music is called "This Loneliness." It is written and performed by F.F.C's father.
