After becoming a godfather to Melina's niece, Nora, and too many jokes about killing Moe Green and all the heads of the 5 families, it was time to introduce Melina to one of the greatest American films, The Godfather.
She was a champ and watched it all the way through with no complaints. When her eyelids got heavy, I knew just what would keep her awake; Food. We added to the experience by enjoying some fresh tomatoes and "muzzarell" at the midway point.
She probably won't start picking up on all the movie quotes I throw at her, but at least now I know I won't find out 5 years into our marriage that I married someone who can't enjoy an American classic.
And I'm still so lucky that she accepted my offer without me having to rely on any intimidation tactics I might have picked up along the way.
Next up: Godfather 2 and Goodfellas.
