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: The infant playing Connie and Carlo's baby son Michael Francis Rizzi who Kay holds during the christening scene is Sofia Coppola, Francis Ford Coppola's daughter, who was born in May 1971. Sofia later had a prominent role in Part III as Michael's daughter, Mary. Other than the main characters, Sofia is the only actor to have appeared in all three films. In The Godfather II, she can be briefly seen as an immigrant girl on the ship that brings Vito Corleone to Ellis Island.
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.
