Happy 105th birthday to #MarioPuzo. The author of #TheGodfather.

“Love is like the little red toy wagon you get for Christmas or your sixth birthday. It makes you deliriously happy and you just can’t leave it alone. But sooner or later the wheels come off. Then you leave it in a corner and forget it. Falling in love is great...” - #MarioPuzo (b: 15 October 1920)

Today we celebrate the birthday of author, screenwriter, and journalist Mario Puzo, born today in 1920. Best known for writing The Godfather, which he later co-adapted into a film trilogy, he also wrote the original screenplay for the 1978 Superman film and its sequel. #MarioPuzo

So I watched The Godfather: Coda (finally) and I have thoughts!

1. Sofia Coppola's performance is indeed dreadful
2. Shalia Tire by contrast keeps the film together
3. Please explain how you can stab someone with a pair of spectacles
4. Imagine if Nic Cage played Vincent 🙃
