Why does Vito let his daughter marry a punk like Carlo? The Corleones are social climbers, that's one of the main themes. Sure, Connie is hard headed, but he can make an offer Carlo can't refuse. He's done it before for less. Connie gets to be the jilted bride for a while, then gets married off to some nice college boy who won't ask too many questions about his inlaws' line of work.

The Don has a sentimental weakness for his children and spoils them, as you can see.

Connie became more annoying with each movie.

He didn't want to interfere with his daughters happiness. His children are his weak spot. Family is what is most important above all other things.

Poor Connie.

She flew around the world with men who didn't even care about her, and used her like a whore!

Interesting tidbit.

Paul Anka was on O & A yesterday and said that Frank Sinatra tried like a motherfricker to get the role of Vito Corleone. PA said that for Sinatra, his biggest regret was not getting that role.
