For those that don't like the Godfather series, I can understand if one it holds no interest or two it hits too close to home. Some people think that the Godfather films stigmatize Italians and Sicilians and won't watch them. (In the end in every group of ethnicity there are the good and the bad.)
As I came from Long Island and the NYC area and read the papers, watched the news, heard the personal anecdotes of people "involved" with some of the low level ones, it has an interest to me. The inner workings of powerful families is often interesting. The book's author Mario Puzzo said "These are all good guys that just happen to kill people." The lead in quote for the Godfather is something like "Behind every great fortune there is a crime."
