I mean, I know there's a struggle for power and the maintaining of the family, but besides all the cool quotes that still have relevance in society (business not personal, separate business from family, etc) what exactly is the main point of the film? It can't just be wanting to seize power.

Clouds of Mystery pouring Confusion on the ground. Good men through the ages, Trying to find the sun; And I wonder, Still I wonder, Who'll stop the rain.
