It's 1972. NY just went through a race riot because the power was off for 18 hours.

The year is 2023 and I'm 31.

I think you need to see a doctor. You might be having a stroke.

Or maybe you're sundowning. Would make sense if you were 44 in 1972.

He's supposed to be very good with a knife. But only in matters of business, or of some sort of reasonable complaint.

“Bene, Don Corleone. I need a man who has powerful friends. I need a million dollars in cash.

I need, Don Corleone, all of those politicians that you carry around in your pocket, like so many nickels and dimes.”

Everyone references Godfather I but dose anyone notice how the composition is similar to Godfather II Havana balcony scene? Flip it aside and you'll get the scene with Pacino refusing the cake slice. I love II, I is just ok.

You posted the name so I looked up his wiki and it said he was born in 1928. “Oh thank god, 1928 was waaay before the Godfather, so the title was just a joke.”

Then I did the math. Jesus he really was only in his mid-40s in that picture. He died at 47. From a heart attack. At 47. I’m almost 47.

It’s crazy what living through the early to mid 20th century did to people. The depression, dust bowl, three American wars, lead shooting out of exhaust pipes and into the air from every vehicle on every street, people smoking in every building you went into, drinking like crazy…the list goes on.

He was evidently quite an enthusiast of the, erm…more interesting pharmaceuticals, which might explain a fatal heart attack at that age, even given the fact that he probably smoked like a chimney and drank all the liquor.

I swear, people used to age like milk.

A few days ago, I was talking to a high school friend and we're the same age now that Patrick Stewart was when he first became Captain Picard. Now, he has always looked great for his age but 36 years ago, he looked considerably older than we look now.

It’s the way people dressed, the hairstyle, the mustaches. You associate certain styles today with a certain age because at one point people stop following the fashion and keep dressing the same and keep the same hairstyles. Then they get old and that is the style you would associate old people with today. If you gave him a contemporary haircut and shaved the mustache, he’d look like a regular 44 year old from today. …and yes, the smoking, the lead from car exhaust, and the lack of sunscreen contribute as well.
