@Mahaloth:

This detail, an important difference between **The Godfather III** (1990) and **The Godfather Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone** (2020) has been bugging me since you pointed it out.

I have looked at wikis, Godfather websites, asked Claude.ai, and, crucially, asked my wife, who watched the movie with me. I have come to this conclusion: I misremembered.

It seems weird. But I can’t very well ignore the clear evidence. And as a denizen of the internet community that gave the world [Anyone else remember the alternate ending to “Big?”](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/anyone-else-remember-the-alternate-ending-to-big/103864)—whose OP was @Mahaloth himself!—I can hardly deny the ability of people to misremember key details of movies.

But it’s weird when it happens to you, especially when it’s a movie you’ve seen quite recently!
