Ganster Girls

The fun-loving Gilmore girls have reported many forms of fictitious puns, retorts, notions and quotes over their long haul. And one of the most recited or imitated movies on Gilmore Girls is The Godfather trilogy, which I'm hoping you would have guessed from the title. On many occassions, GG has delivered Godfather witticism. Remember their mock of Sophia? The Cannoli allusion? It becomes apparent then that either Dan or Amy Sherman-Palladino (or both) enjoy The Godfather. One could probably say that they salute it, but ah...that's something else altogether. What are you thoughts on the movie? Do you appreciate it's ganster/family storyline? Or do you just die when any quote or reference of the movie is pushed passed one of the leading ladies's lips? And does anyone think that it has become like Shakespear...quote overload?

Personally, I worship the movie. Have ever since childhood. It's about a time when life was different...was evolving. It's about family and it's about backdoor trades and money deals. It's covered with murder, lies and deceit, but don't all great movies have flawed stars -- Scarlett O'Hara to name one. No, she didn't hurt nobody. But she wasn't perfect, now was she? So yeah, I'm a ganster girl right along with the fictional Stars Hollow babes.

*** And did you know that The Godfather had a game? I didn't. I feel a little shamed, too. I'm going to have to rent it to see what it's all about and to rectify my ignorance.
