just as powerful as the first!

I thought this was an amazing follow up to the first mini-series. You learn some more about the characters. Especially Rose-Marie (played by Kirstie Alley) who had, one of the worst lives in cinema history. Just when I thought her life was horrible enough it just gets worse in this second parter (and it had a chance to flourish). The move did what it was supposed to do, I felt for the character, I was horrified, saddened, angered, and so forth. Kirstie Alley once again proved her acting abilities with taking on the role of the daughter of the Don who goes "crazy". Superb!

:::SPOILER::: Also, the idea of the family crumbling and needing to rebuild it after the loss of the Don was done well. You could see the walls coming down around them, their own being quickly killed off. But they regained their power in the end. I thought this was a great follow up to a wonderful first mini-series.
