2. Similarities between both characters.
• I feel that the character in our film can be related to a young version of
Michael Corleone, before he became the head of the gangsters.
• They are both middle/upper class, you can tell this by their clothing. In the
pictures that I am comparing, both of the characters are smartly dressed,
with a suit on, this can tell us a lot of what kind o f life they live or their
background.
• The hair is also an important fact that could represent these two
characters, it’s a simple smart hair, pushed back, this could represent
them as smart and as having their own style.
• both characters are gangsters and eventually will have something to do
with a gangster lifestyle, Michael Corleone will be introduced to it later
than Nico but eventually they will both be part of it.
3. Differences between characters.
• Between these two characters there are also many differences.
• The father of Nico (our main character) wants him to be the next person
that will take over the empire that his father has built, while Michael
Corleone wants to live a more Americanized lifestyle and not have
anything to do with the gangster life that his father leads, but in this case
his father also doesn’t want him to me part of it, he sees him as a weak
boy that wouldn’t be able to deal with the stress of the business.
• Nico will join his fathers “business” straight after his death, but Michael
will leave the family behind and get married, but eventually be dragged
back in by events that have occurred.
