Scenes such as these paint Lucas as far more hotheaded and ferocious than Al Pacino’s Michael Corleone; he rarely spares anyone (whether family or stranger) his physical wrath or his ultra-focused coldness. Even on his wedding night, he ignores his wife, burning an innocent gift from her that jeopardized his drug...
