Symbolism of Orange

    At first, I thought that the idea of orange containing the meaning of death is foolish, but after the orange was seen various times before the scenes of death in The Godfather, I did some researches to ensure if it's true. After some researches, I had found out that the fruit orange is actually related to the death and the danger. However, I found this symbolism convenience, because it helped me to anticipate what's going to happen when the orange appeared.
There were numerous scenes with the orange, but it was most visibly seen in two different scenes. The first scene was when Vito Corleone was buying an orange got shots by the killers and the second scene was when he ate the orange before the heart attack.

   It was interesting to see how the director could guide the audiences by using an unusual object.
