How is Light utilized in the film?

          The Godfather has many scenes with the use of lights.  There is a specific way that Francis Ford Coppola places the lights.  The angles of the lights like, at the start of the film where there was a halo around Don's head, were placed there for a reason because Francis could have been sending a message to the viewers that Don is actually a good person like an angel.  When Sunny was sitting in his chair later on in the movie, there was no halo above his head because maybe Francis Ford Coppola was portraying that Sunny was not a good person or son.  It was also very obvious in the scene when Sollozzo was talking to Tom Hagen, and half of Tom's face was white, and the other half was dark.  This just shows that Tom is actually half good and half bad because he wants to make that deal with Sollozzo, but he knows that it is wrong to. 
         
          The colour orange has also appeared many times because orange could mean something bad is going to happen.  Don was picking oranges when he got shot, and also when Micheal was going to kill Sollozzo and McClusky.  The lights all around him was orange, and this just shows that orange could mean death, so I will be looking for more examples of the colour orange and how it relates to death.

          Later on, this light and dark side occurred again when Micheal was talking with his sister's husband.  Half of Micheal's face was dark and half was white which is very true because he can sometimes be good, but sometimes he could be evil.  This time, it was showing the evil side of him when he killed the husband because he kept on beating his sister.
