This scene is the birth of one of the greatest villains in the history of film. How resoect was in the old days. Now, there is no respect. I've always wondered why Italian and Spanish sound so similar. 4.5 people are gonna sleep with fishes. It's a Sicilian message. Ever Green. Thanks for this. I like how Tom says, Even shooting your father was business, not personal Sonny! Maybe he was no wartime consigliere, but Tom had a clear, sharp view of the situation.
All praise the godfather, patriarchal symbol of our time. For he is disappearing, yet fighting to reappear, fighting to be relevant. He has the audacity to proclaim honor among thieves, bullies and murderers. And for this, we are grateful. Opportunists may triumph, but we will preserve HIS spirit in our minds, amen.
If you go through the list of reviewers who love this movie and, if you listen to your friends who rave about its greatness, you'll find a not so astonishing leitmotif. They are almost all men. These men see "The Godfather" as symbolic of something. It's something sort of mystical, just like the rituals of the Catholic Churchgun smoke and incense. It has to do with the right of fatherly place, something which is being lost as time has marched on, ever onwards towards an oblivion of irrelevance for patriarchy, the family, private property and the State itself! We mourn the loss. We are nostalgic for these good old days. This is a tragedy. But, buck up, me buckos. It's also reality. You know that. That's what's so good about "The Godfather. It's REAL, baby! Don Vito Corleone is right to recognize that the potential violence embodied in HIM, the patriarch of the ruling family and his/its gang of servant/employees gives him the power to dispense justice. Kiss his hand. Lick it. He is Papa, you guinea. Justicewhat an abstraction, all filled with nicety-nice images of doing good unto others as you would have them do unto you. Pure crapola! You beat the crap out of your enemies and underlings and show them who's boss! That's the reality of everyday life within the political-economy of capitalism : political power comes out of the barrel of a gun baby and it hurts!
Michael: So the next day, my father went to see him; only this time with Luca Brasi. And within an hour, he signed a release, for a certified check for 1000. Kay: How'd he do that? Michael: My father made him an offer he couldn't refuse. Kay: What was that? Luca Brasi held a gun to his head and my father assured him that either his brains, or his signature, would be on the contract. That's a true story. That's my family, Kay, it's not me.
It's only the women-units, like Kay Adams who are confused and who need to be reminded, every once in a while. Kay ventures to open her mouth about politics and her naive liberalism is met with a quick back fist of REALITY by Michael Corleone, who art her husband and budding patriarch in his own right, amen.
MC: My father is no different than any other powerful man. any man who's responsible for other people, like a senator or president. KAY: You know how naive you nators and presidents don't have men killed. MC: Oh, who's being naive, Kay?
That's it girls and the rest of you liberals and socialists. The richest one percent of the families in the USA own more of the well, no, I mean wealth, than the other ninety-percent of American families. For this, they get the best government money can buy. And, if someone stands in their way with some left-leaning line, well we know what happens to them.
As Barzini says to the other Dons about sharing the spoils from the well of exploitation: Certainly, he can present a bill for such services. After all, we're not Communists. But he must let us draw the water from the well.
Get it you softies? This is social darwinism in action, reduced to its simplest formula and ground down to its final solution. This is reality of THE GAME : dominance and submission, master and servant, the Godfather and you.
Meanwhile, true women can talk about the kids, especially about the up and coming males. She can cook and clean. This is her place. She knows nothing about the realities of politics. It is a dog-eat-dog world outside of her properly protected areas of concern : with the kids, in the kitchen and at church.
Don't get me wrong. This is a great flick. The acting was the best that most of these men ever did or would do. Of course, the women were a bit hollow. But that role fit the script. Francis Ford Coppola's direction was masterful as was his collaboration with Mario Puzo on the screenplay. The cinematography by Gordon Willis was appropriately brown, dark and conservative. The casting by Louis DiGiamio, Andrea Eastman and Fred Roos was near perfect.
Brando's last scene in "The Godfather" was really the classic moment. But then, there were so many. Anyway, remember? He and his grandson playing in the garden. First Vito sprays the bugs. He pushes the device. Out comes the death spray. Down go the bugs. Then, he gives the push-spray gun to little Michael's son. The cute thing chases his grandfather around spraying insect killer at him like it was some kind of Tommy Gun until, boom, the old ticker gives out and Brando collapses. The kid doesn't know he's dead yet and so steps up to the body and sprays it some more.
Rather like the last moments in Sonny's untimely death, no? Oh well, like father, like son.
I love Clemenza's reaction to Sonny when Sonny wants assurance from him that someone very good shall plant the gun in the toilet for Michael. Clemenza's reaction is like, bitch, I have been killing people since you were playing comedy with all those cheerleaders.

“NO MOOUURR MEETINS NO MOOUR DISCUSSIONS”
This film is Amazing,i love this trilogy. Clemenza always making the dirty work. When your DNA test says that you are 0.1% italian. Suddenly I'm in the mood for some chinese... If wasn't for that kick I guess he would've survived. This scene shows MC Never wanted to follow his father footsteps. MAFIA DINNERS. they always make me hungry. Scenes like this prove why the 70s was the best decade for film. Love the blame some of the people in this room, implying Vito knows it's not just Tattaglia behind everything. Also unsettles the others so they don't betray him.
Like if Michael and Vito Corleone are your role models.
This scene reflected life and death. Two clean hits, three messy ones, and Clemenza got the job that involved scaling all those stairs, with two shots before has to reload. Yup, pretty much an airtight plan. And to top it off, a few minutes later, three goombahs are driving around the neighborhood with two feet sticking out the broken windshield. Best scene acting wise is him finding about Sonny being killed it felt so genuine. The camera work on these DR concerts is outstading, on par with the musicianship itself.
Go ahead, break your father's heart on his birthday. How introverts get treated when they ask for help. In the Godfather, even the cat is a good actor. Padre- Michael, do you renounce Satan Michael- yes I do. Kills every family head, cold blooded. Shit got real.
