My point is it matters not a whit what he INTENDED, it's what actually occurs. Action always speaks louder than intellectual justification.
The movie glorifies violence, specifically, American violence. Notice how "entertainingly" the scenes of horror are filmed? Coppola wants you to enjoy them.
In fact, music is used like some sort of MTV; it livens up scenes of what should be horror, death, and devastation.
As I said, Coppola acheived the same amoral result with Puzo's pulp novel, The Godfather.
He has no moral compass: he's a subconsious worshipper of violence or an unthinking entertainer, or both or... worse.
