“Grazie”

“Preggo.”

Then started one of the most short- lived and yearned for relationships in cinematic history!

Didn’t you just want them to be together forever???

I don’t know, but every time I see them together, I catch myself smiling. The way that he stops dead in his tracks when he first sees her on the side of the mountain.  And the way that she catches her breath and shakes herself out of the daze to trot quickly back into the safe folds of her mama. And the way that he brazenly gets his capitano to translate to her father, “but, then your daughter would lose a father, instead of gaining a husband.” Swoon!!!

The family is invited to meet her would-be suitor and the table is set with candies and homemade cakes on the family’s best lace tablecloth. The father introduces Miquel to his cucinas and her brothers and so on. Mr. Corleone makes sure that he comes bearing gits for all of the women of the household.  I love the way that she looks at her mother before she opens the gift. I love it when they are at the other ends of the table in the next scene and he stops to look at her and she rubs her necklace on her neck and they both smile at each other, knowingly. And I love love love how she “accidentally” trips so that he could catch her, as they are followed by a group of women. This is how it was done in the old country. Her mother taught her well.

At first I thought to myself, “why can’t things be like this today?” But, then my mother would have put a stop to all the people I done/dated and I would not have this lovely blog to share it all with you!

Didn’t Michael have so much swagger! It is such a turn on. People had to bow down. I love when men act like that in the bedroom, but no so much in real life. Cause possum, Miss Linton is not going to bow down for anyone-except maybe forward…from behind. Sometimes, the most amazing things can happen from behind.

But, I digress.

Let’s go on to the wedding night!

WHAT YOU NEED:

1. A cool white slip for her (not no teddy!!! You are suppose to give the allure that no one has ever had the chance to vacuum your carpet.)

2. A crisp white shirt for him and pants

3. Low lighting for ambiance

WHAT TO DO:

The clip towards the end makes everything so easy. Your lover should devour you as you look to him so timidly. Let him stand there so that he can take you all in. You should approach him slowly, as if you are a virgin. I know, I know. Even for me this could be a stretch, but I like acting in the bedroom, so even if you have to use “The Method” it should be doable. All you have to do is think way way way back to many many years ago when you lost it. Now I want you then to forget it, cause if you do it right, this is so going to be better than the first!

After, you both kiss. Step back and slowly cross your arms and let the slip drop from you. For those who are bare, a little bush would have been nice,it would help keep up the whole “virgin” thing, but don’t go on weaving or gluing anything on there. You might not get it off! And for those like me that like to have nice trimmed hedges, well done you! Go for it!

Before you leap in the bed, you should end it with a kiss so passionately cause even though you are “playing” a virgin, you know that in the end the man is going to PLOW!

NOTE: No need for any watered down ketchup to stain the sheets. It is play-acting after all. It is not as if you just met him a few weeks ago and kept on having really hot phone sex and told him that you were a virgin and the stupid Jigga did believe you, but you couldn’t help yourself cause it added such a new dimension to your hum-drum sex life of late and when you finally got together you realize that he might go all “Medieval Times” on you and check the sheets when you both wake up, if there end up being breakfast in the end, so you don’t use the good ketchup cause Heinz Ketchup IS really that thick so you use the no name brand that is already watery and doesn’t have to be mix.

Not, like this has ever happened to me.

It is just a for instance!

Appolonia would have understood what it took to be such a bad man. What it took to be the Godfather. I think that she would have raised the children and took care of the home in such a way that Kay (was that her name?) could never. She would have turned a blind eye to it all and been the wivey that Michael needed.

It is with sadness that we all felt together when she got blown up in the end, pregnant with their first child. The rest of the movie you feel the sense that Miguel Corleone settled. And that when he left Sicily, he left his heart behind with her. And although he began anew with Kay, you still felt that he was doing it out of duty. Not, love.
