Yeah, what fantastic acting. I love it when Mike asks Fredo to call Moe, but he doesn't he just sits down at the table and Moe comes in on his own. lol
Look at Johnny Fontane's face when Michael asked him to sign a contract to perform at the casino 5 times a year. You can see he doesn't want to but knows he has to. Great acting
Considering all the help his godfather gave him to break into and even maintain in Hollywood, 5 visits a year to party in a casino is a cakewalk. He knew that too. Johnny’s a good boy. He’d never disappoint his godfather. Salud.
@@justinv6410 the point here is the contract itself. Johnny would have done it without the contract anyway, anything for his Godfather. Contract is a sign of distrust, why there’s a need of contract with your family? We can tell from Johnny’s face when Michael showed him the papers….
Michael’s transformation from a hopeful young man who didn’t want anything to do with his family’s business to a ruthless cold hearted mafia Don expanding his family’s empire across America is just amazing to watch. This was a dream role for any actor and Al Pacino knocked out it out of the park!
To think they didn’t even WANT Al Pacino in the movie because he didn’t have the look that was popular at the time or some bs and now you can’t even imagine the movie without him
Pacino's seminal role, the Italians should be very happy about the authentic character this great actor portrayed. I'm black and grew up in the midst of that reality on the streets of Newark, NJ. I went to high school with these people and got an occasional hard glimpse of mafia culture in operation and trust me when i tell you, the imagery projected through movies like this one and series like "The Sopranos" are very accurate, but at two adjacent levels, the Godfather depicting the top or "corporate" strata, while the Sopranos illustrated the more "blue-collar" and mid-level, NJ and Philly style cultures...☑️👀🍃
Playing hardball with Michael didn't get Moe Greene killed. Even disrespecting Michael wasn’t what got him killed. It was threatening to make a deal with Barzini instead. That’s when he signed his own death sentence.
No way Mike didn’t know Moe was working with Barzini prior to the Vegas trip. From the moment news reached the Corleones of Fredo getting slapped around in public, a lot of intel would have been run to find out the reason for the EXTREME disrespect. Mike is too smart (and vindictive) to ignore such a thing. So he never really intended to do business with Moe. The trip was just to see face to face just how arrogant Moe had become. And he saw. Nonetheless Moe had it coming, the moment he layed a hand on Fredo. It was insulting and also hinted that Moe was getting some real muscle. Who else but Barzini fit the picture?
Fredo is weak and too simpleminded to understand strategy and scheming but he’s actually VERY good at the hospitality business and running the hotels and casinos. He didn’t become Underboss strictly as some meaningless figurehead. He is actually a key part of Michael’s dream to make the family legitimate through running the casinos.
Moe didn't show respect in the first place by arriving late to the meeting. When Don Corleone is in the building, none other bussines should have priority.
@@daviscm100 It's amazing because Al Martino was not an actor in fact this was his first acting gig. You would think he was acting his entire life with that performence
Yup...Al Martino had real life experiences with The Mob in his own career and came close to getting whacked a few times if I remember right. He also used his "connections" to get this part too.
certain offers you can't refuse. Johnny, knew better than talking back to Michael( who is the de facto Don now) in front of other people. It was a favour, refusing openly would be disrespectful. Not to mention the Don basically gave him a career to begin with.
@ONEFATE9 Bro, underrated by who?? You're just saying stuff to sound cool and get likes. Just because you finally decided to look up his imdb doesn't mean everyone else is as ignorant as you
I have to admit, as a 49 year old, I still don't always follow everything in these movies very well, but I am completely captivated when watching them. People say these movies are slow and demand attention and patience. I can't get enough out of every scene.
I’m 43. Saw this masterpiece for the first time at age 13. At that young age I was impressed on how Michael carried himself. Professional, Smooth and Ruthless. Al Pacino became my favorite actor then and there
@nickquinn6559 unfortunately some time after Godfather 2, Pacino's voice changed, and his acting became bombastic and over stated. But damn, was he good back then.
no, he was blown away by a bold comment made by what he considered a sophomore ''businessman'' coming into his city......it's clear in all of Moe's statements in this conversation......
Only menacing to those who go through life fearing people and being intimidated by him and others. I thought he was just an angry dago with major issues.
Lol I know. Every time I hear it I cringe. As brilliant as this film is, little things like the bad dub here and Sonny's fantom punch to Carlo are flaws that probably should have been fixed or edited out. I guess Coppola was facing extreme pressure to come in on budget and on time though so he just left them in.
Poor Fredo. Always felt bad for him. He just wants to have a good time, and he gets so embarrassed when his younger brother rejects the party he prepared. And he’s such a sanguine and people pleaser that he’s so torn between keeping his brother content and making excuses forgiving Moe. The happiest and most peaceful we see fredo is when he’s fishing on the boat. 😢
Fredo was an idiot and Sonny was a hot head. Fredo had no business being involved in the family business. They should have handled him like they handled Connie. And Sonny would never have been more than a glorified enforcer. If Michael wouldn't have completely changed his life plans, the family would have crumbled before the Don would have passed away.
Amazing how four kids can be so different. Sonny is the hothead, Fredo is clueless, Connie is the victim, and Michael is composed. Unless the kids aren't *really* siblings - ? 😁
Very well written script. The reason it's a quotable movie - is because every family, organization, group of friends, coworkers, has a Fredo type, a Michael type, Sonny Type, Vito type , Tom Hagen type. So anyone not just gangsters can relate.
I watched this film for the first time fifty years ago and I still think it’s one of the best movies ever made. Not dated at all and the acting is brilliant. I plan to dig out my box set and enjoy it over the Christmas period. Beats watching all the normal garbage over the festive period. 👏🍷
Yeah i love to watch the godfather movies over Christmas- and this year i have some leftover lasagna from scratch to enjoy with the movies- these movies inevitably make me crave lasagna or a big plate of spaghetti and meatballs with some wine to go with it
:34 the look on the bellman's face shows he doesn't respect Fredo and is probably tired of him. This shows Fredo wants to be seen as in charge but isn't very good at it. He immediately folds when Michael tells him to dismiss the party and gets angry at the girls for not moving fast enough. He was probably a mini-tyrant to those under him to compensate for everyone else disregarding him.
Yeah after 30 seconds everybody gets dismissed 🤣😂🤣 crazy how setting up that scene probably took a lot longer than 30 seconds 🤣 oh well they all got paid 😂😂
That is one of the coldest lines in cinema and in general, a family setting ever. “You’re my big brother and I love you, but don’t ever take sides with anyone against the family again.”
“Mike, you don’t come to Las Vegas and talk to a man like Moe Green like THAT!” I still recite this line every chance I get to friends and co-workers and most have no idea what the heck I’m talking about. 😂
Up until this moment (and even after) Fredo never truly understood that Michael was in charge of the family. He recognized he'd grown up but he viewed him as his kid brother who was coming out to Vegas to have a bit of fun. It wasn't until the Moe Greene moments in which he recognized that Michael was becoming the Godfather.
5:30 Johnny Fontane went and sat beside tom to show allegiance to the family. His body laungauge was totally submissive there to show that the family still had that kind of power. Never seen that before till just now.
They just don’t make movies like this anymore. This was a time when directors and producers wanted to put out their best work. The attention to detail is fantastic.
It still blows my mind to watch these two great actors…Al Pacino and John Cazale in The Godfather 1 & 2, then watch them together in Dog Day Afternoon…it’s incredible to think they’re the same two people. Pacino goes from a cold hearted Mafia boss to gay bank robber and Cazale is a far cry from Fredo. Just incredible acting from both men. Pacino said recently that he learned more about acting from John than anyone else. That high praise indeed!

Damn watching this for years and just picking up from Micheal "make him an offer he can't refuse!" This is master piece Micheal following his father to a T.
The word psychopath gets overused, he just did what he needed to do and what he thouth was best in the interest of the family, its called running a bussiness at the end of the day, the difference is all your bussiness partners and competition have muscle and guns, and favors are just another word for contract, you better pay up your other end up of the bargain when asked.
0:34 look at the hotel porters, the smirk on the lead guy’s face tells it all: even they didn’t respect Fredo, implying Moe had so thoroughly and publically emasculated Michael’s older brother and thus weakening the Corleone family name out there in Vegas.
Vito to Sonny: Don't ever tell anyone outside of the family what you are thinking again. Michael to Fredo: Don't ever take sides against the family again. Ever.
In this scene Moe reminded me to Sonnys attitude in the Solozzo meeting, he wasnt hiding his emotions and opinion and that led to his downfall. It seems that in the mob business it is crucial to be manipulative with every word you say and with the way you act in front of people. Even the smallest gesture can be read as a sign of threath or weakness let alone raging at your business partner.
His body/body language does not back up the perceived masculinity he tries to convey. He gets little respect because he shows none. He is a coward imo.
Go to 4:27 and listen carefully. Listen to how the sound changes when he says ... "I talked to Barzini..." - it's like this was dubbed into the movie. It's the same in the actual movie. You can hear the change. Did you hear it? What was going on?
It's my understanding they didn't get it properly during filming. Or during voice-overs. It's literally another guy saying that, one of the editors or something. That's why it clearly sounds different.
AL PACINO the definition of charisma and depth. What a fabulous persona this man carries along, such a charmer! God of acting and method actor for a reason and loved by all. Hats off to the King 👑
Mike already concluded the business before he got to Las Vegas. At the front door when fedo opened the door for his little party, Tom and the other guy smiled at d Joke.. Mike already took over. he came prepared with a contract Letter. he Made sure Johnny was in that meeting.
You can watch this movie endless times. But you'll still miss something.... like when Michael asked Freddy, "Were is Moe Greene, and Freddy's response was basically, "he's busy, and he'll come later when the party starts."... When in reality, he was in the next room.
@gtergeez7935 Moe enters the room within moments after the phone call. And Freddy doesn't make the call... If you look real close, when Freddy exists, the car, that's another actor, not John Cavale.
The best movie ever where family was never messed with, the worst businesses where money rolled in and all pretended to be happy; doesn't this remind us of modern day corporate czars and politicians...!
The corruption does. I promise there is no one in business or certainly not politics who has a shread of the poise, focus, intelligence, or charisma that Michael displays. I imagine most of our corrupt buffoons are more like Fredo.
What i like in these situation mike is not beating around, not with chit chat or anything, straight to bussiness, and that "i talk to barzinni" is top notch
Is it just me or when Moe says that he talked to Barzini, doesn't it sound like an overdub? The tone of voice is completely different for that one line
I was listening to an interview with an ex Mafia man who said in real life if someone spoke to a Don the way Mo Green did in public it would not go down so smoothly.
I like the color coordination in this scene. The Corleones wear black and Moe Green and the casino are represented by yellow. Fredo wears a yellow jacket showing his loyalty to Moe Green but underneath is a black shirt, because he's still a Corleone.
Al Pacino's portrayal of Michael Corleone is magnificent - a cold-hearted, really ice-cold determined boss, despite his good looks and warm eyes, committing atrocious crimes and conveying a despicable character.
Freddo's guilty glance at Michael to see how he will respond to the revelation of his escapades with the coctail waitresses is hilarious. Like a small child looking to see how his father will react after being told of his being naughty.
2:08 Hagen is in the background, then Fredo covers him and finally Mike asks Hagen to come closer, completely ignoring Fredo. In a few seconds, the filmmaker has given us tons of information about the role that each one plays in the family. A masterpiece.
Yeah and from what I can understand from the Original Novel, Vito Did not approve of what fredo was doing. He thought that he was acting like a degenerate Doing that sort of thing.
There are so many little things in this scene that adds a great sense of reality. Michael scratching his upper lip, Moe gently moving the glass out of his way, and Johnny just sitting there awkward as hell in the middle of these big mafia guys arguing lol.
John only appeared in 5 films yet they were all nominated for Best Picture. During the filming of The Deerhunter his illness became noticeably worse. The studio wanted to get rid of him saying the insurance was too high. Robert DeNiro stepped in covered Johns insurance costs so he could carry on filming.
"You straightened my brother out?" One of the most memorable lines for me. It was pretty clear what it meant and the line was delivered with no visible emotion.
@@davecorns7630This may. Shock you Dave but according to the original book Apparently fredo was banging cocktail waitresses Two at a time. And according to that doctor friend of lucy mancini's.. Fredo had needed to be treated twice for syphilis.And at least once for the Clap. Basically fredo Was the original bareback rider. And apparently his father did not approve of that sort of thing that much because he was very straight laced about sex.
Alex Rocco who played Moe Green was in reality connected with the mob. Kinda ironic. I’ve always enjoyed watching him in any screen role he had. He was even great as Matt LeBlanc’s dad in “Episodes.”
'You straightened my brother out?!' delivered so well.
Yeah, what fantastic acting. I love it when Mike asks Fredo to call Moe, but he doesn't he just sits down at the table and Moe comes in on his own. lol
@@simonssol3526 Moe Green should have replied: You wanted to talk business didn't you? So let's talk business kid.
Michael sounded 👌 real serious ❤
Scary!
Look at Michael's eyes when he says that line.
"I'll do anything for my Godfather!" Is the only correct answer to make sure you stay alive!
I had to put the subtitle because the only thing I understood from that sentence was the word godfather.🤣
Look at Johnny Fontane's face when Michael asked him to sign a contract to perform at the casino 5 times a year. You can see he doesn't want to but knows he has to. Great acting

@@ardiwijaya Doesn’t seem Johnny Boy had any such high morals.
I think it was just a gesture of resignation and acquiescence he made.

That's what made him perfect. He had an outside view.
Fun facts: Al Pacino's grandparents are born Corleone's village, Sicilia
Pacino's seminal role, the Italians should be very happy about the authentic character this great actor portrayed.
I'm black and grew up in the midst of that reality on the streets of Newark, NJ.
I went to high school with these people and got an occasional hard glimpse of mafia culture in operation and trust me when i tell you, the imagery projected through movies like this one and series like "The Sopranos" are very accurate, but at two adjacent levels, the Godfather depicting the top or "corporate" strata, while the Sopranos illustrated the more "blue-collar"
and mid-level, NJ and Philly style cultures...☑️👀🍃
Pacino's Michael Corleone never blinked his eyes again.
The acting here is absolutely top level - everyone on screen is epic.
Something I hadn't noticed before: look at the expression on Tom's face when Moe breezes by him. Dude looks like he's at a funeral.
As Moe Greene, Alex Rocco had a face like a tub
Playing hardball with Michael didn't get Moe Greene killed. Even disrespecting Michael wasn’t what got him killed. It was threatening to make a deal with Barzini instead. That’s when he signed his own death sentence.
Mo Green looks like a young Harrison Ford in this scene and i only just noticed 😂
Yes
Michael probably already knew Greene was talking with his enemies. The whole scene was him trying to provoke him into revealing his intentions.

Yea he doesn't like Fredo and neither do I lol

I love Johnny was clearly uncomfortable about the contract but knew better than to refuse or say anything
Yup...Al Martino had real life experiences with The Mob in his own career and came close to getting whacked a few times if I remember right. He also used his "connections" to get this part too.
How could he refuse when his godfather Vito helped him get a movie part?
certain offers you can't refuse. Johnny, knew better than talking back to Michael( who is the de facto Don now) in front of other people. It was a favour, refusing openly would be disrespectful. Not to mention the Don basically gave him a career to begin with.
Knowing the ' offers' the Corleone's normally give, that contract didn' t sound bad at all.
We all know he didn't have much of a choice, but even if he did, Godfather helped him when he asked, it's only fair that he returns the favor.
I have been watching the GODFATHER for over 45 years ago and everytime I watched it I learned something
FACTS. Every-Time. 💯
Yep. Thanks to TH-cam clips so we can forever analyze the movie.
Al Pacino such a fantastic actor, by far the best of his generation.
Give me Scent of a Woman and anything from the 70's.
That's the Al Pacino I want to see.
I prefer de Niro taxi driver unmatched
John Cazale was an underrated actor. He only appeared in 5 movies, but each of them were classics. R.I.P to a brilliant man!
If I'm not mistaken they were all Best Picture
edit: they were Best Picture or at least nominated.
He was as excellent an actor as his then fiancé Meryl Streep is.
@ONEFATE9 Bro, underrated by who?? You're just saying stuff to sound cool and get likes. Just because you finally decided to look up his imdb doesn't mean everyone else is as ignorant as you

Underrated perhaps by idiots, but not by connoisseurs.
HOW COULD YOU CUT OFF THE END OF THE LINE??? INFAMNIA!!!
That is inexcusable!
es una infamia buena frase de unos de los jefes de la familia

@@miguelrodrigo3875 he wasn't that great in these

Oscars is bullshit and everyone who's into movies knows it. You shouldn't take them seriously at all.
At the same time, doesn't really matter as it was one of the greatest movies of all time... that kinda overshadows everything.
Best acting, best plot, best scenery, best music, best everything. This, and The Godfather 2, will hold up 100 years from now.

"We hope you'll sign a contract" is Mafia-ese for "Sign this contract jackass or you'll be sleeping with the fishes"

Up until this moment (and even after) Fredo never truly understood that Michael was in charge of the family. He recognized he'd grown up but he viewed him as his kid brother who was coming out to Vegas to have a bit of fun.

Michael Corleone: devoted family man, ruthless Don, least fun guy in the world to go to Vegas with.
Yea he never wants to have fun lol
That trilogy is perfection! Not a wrong line anywhere in the series! Even the deleted scenes were perfect!!
There is no trilogy in my trilogy book.
@ralphplumb7027........Are you serious? Godfather III was a total crock of shit
@@thesoultwins72
I could never watch Godfather three
Tried too
The movie sucks
I have The Godfather collection
@@ralphplumb7027 this isn't how mobsters acted. It's how Hollywood thought mobsters acted
One of the dozens of powerful scenes throughout this movie..just WOW!!
Relish the good days gentlemen.
Never be the same again
This is my go2 movie on a rainy winter day! It all so gets played for Thanksgiving 😂
Damn watching this for years and just picking up from Micheal "make him an offer he can't refuse!" This is master piece Micheal following his father to a T.
Cazal was such an incredible actor. Totally among equals in these movies.
Pacino played that role perfect. He under acted and subtle nuances perfect. Michael Corleone was a pure psychopath.
Psychopath? For doing a good business deal?
I think that not because of his wits, but due to his lack of control of his aggressiveness.
How?
The word psychopath gets overused, he just did what he needed to do and what he thouth was best in the interest of the family, its called running a bussiness at the end of the day, the difference is all your bussiness partners and competition have muscle and guns, and favors are just another word for contract, you better pay up your other end up of the bargain when asked.
@@joelst294 no
"What's the matter with you? Never tell anyone outside the family what you're thinking, again"
0:34 look at the hotel porters, the smirk on the lead guy’s face tells it all: even they didn’t respect Fredo, implying Moe had so thoroughly and publically emasculated Michael’s older brother and thus weakening the Corleone family name out there in Vegas.
I’ve watched this scene a million times! It will be a million more!
All that matters is that Moe TALKED TO BARZINI @4:30 💀
Extremely important and needed information
@@area52musicAlex of course knew the importance of that line. He made it as memorable as humanly possible with the Darth Vader voice.
barzini be like: moe who? we talked ?!
He turned into darth vader
So what’s up with the Darth Vader voice? There must be a story behind that.
Great scene, thanks for uploading the entire part
The way Moe Green’s voice cracked when he said “I talked to Barzini” like he was about to cry….you can’t teach that.
its not that, line was evidently dubbed later as original sentence get corrupted in montage i suppose
@@maciejjacewicz6609yeah I always wish they worked it out to be more smooth, it always bothers me for such an amazing scene.
lol just verifiably incorrect
Vito to Sonny: Don't ever tell anyone outside of the family what you are thinking again.
Michael to Fredo: Don't ever take sides against the family again. Ever.
In this scene Moe reminded me to Sonnys attitude in the Solozzo meeting, he wasnt hiding his emotions and opinion and that led to his downfall. It seems that in the mob business it is crucial to be manipulative with every word you say and with the way you act in front of people. Even the smallest gesture can be read as a sign of threath or weakness let alone raging at your business partner.
Wow, 1:41. Moe Greene goes undercover, gets kicked out and reappears.
😂😂
😂
Fredo has never been in charge of anything. Look at how he talks to everyone
Explain please.
His body/body language does not back up the perceived masculinity he tries to convey. He gets little respect because he shows none. He is a coward imo.
Even after getting pushed away from the family business and from consigliere position Tom doesn't undermine Michael's authority and calls him boss.
Tom wasn't treated well b/c he wasn't Italian or part of the family
Go to 4:27 and listen carefully. Listen to how the sound changes when he says ... "I talked to Barzini..." - it's like this was dubbed into the movie. It's the same in the actual movie. You can hear the change. Did you hear it? What was going on?
It's my understanding they didn't get it properly during filming. Or during voice-overs. It's literally another guy saying that, one of the editors or something. That's why it clearly sounds different.
AL PACINO the definition of charisma and depth.
What a fabulous persona this man carries along, such a charmer!
God of acting and method actor for a reason and loved by all.
Hats off to the King 👑
Mike already concluded the business before he got to Las Vegas. At the front door when fedo opened the door for his little party, Tom and the other guy smiled at d Joke.. Mike already took over. he came prepared with a contract Letter. he Made sure Johnny was in that meeting.
The Godfather trilogy is amazing.. specially part one and two...!
You can watch this movie endless times. But you'll still miss something.... like when Michael asked Freddy, "Were is Moe Greene, and Freddy's response was basically, "he's busy, and he'll come later when the party starts."... When in reality, he was in the next room.
That also shows the lack of respect moe Greene had for Michael.
How do you know he’s in the next room
@gtergeez7935 Moe enters the room within moments after the phone call. And Freddy doesn't make the call... If you look real close, when Freddy exists, the car, that's another actor, not John Cavale.
Who is Freddy?
@@parapoliticos52 "Fredo."
The best movie ever where family was never messed with, the worst businesses where money rolled in and all pretended to be happy; doesn't this remind us of modern day corporate czars and politicians...!
The corruption does.
I promise there is no one in business or certainly not politics who has a shread of the poise, focus, intelligence, or charisma that Michael displays.
I imagine most of our corrupt buffoons are more like Fredo.
John Cazale is an underrated actor. Love his portrayal of Fredo.
Who's underrating him?
@@Andy-uq9eoNobody is. “Underrated” has become a TH-cam cliché. Doesn’t mean a thing.
Look at the hand shake , Michaels on top , just like a boss.
What i like in these situation mike is not beating around, not with chit chat or anything, straight to bussiness, and that "i talk to barzinni" is top notch
Yep Michael came for buisness and went straight into it
Is it just me or when Moe says that he talked to Barzini, doesn't it sound like an overdub? The tone of voice is completely different for that one line
4:31 the voice modulation by Moe Green! Pure acting
Mike's superior intelligence when talking with Johnny and complete ruthlessness with Moe Greene though....
@@johnhawk1969 I would have slapped that dumb punk Cornylone out of his suit
I was listening to an interview with an ex Mafia man who said in real life if someone spoke to a Don the way Mo Green did in public it would not go down so smoothly.
Michael wasn’t a Don though.
So smoothly? He killed Moe at a later point !
He was right. It didn’t go very smoothly for Moe.
He wouldve gotten his face caved in on the spot
Michael was not the officially the head of the Corleone family at this point. He was the acting Don.
I like the color coordination in this scene. The Corleones wear black and Moe Green and the casino are represented by yellow. Fredo wears a yellow jacket showing his loyalty to Moe Green but underneath is a black shirt, because he's still a Corleone.
Al Pacino's portrayal of Michael Corleone is magnificent - a cold-hearted, really ice-cold determined boss, despite his good looks and warm eyes, committing atrocious crimes and conveying a despicable character.
1:18 Any resentment Fredo may be feeling about being 'stepped over' now was the time to voice it!
Freddo's guilty glance at Michael to see how he will respond to the revelation of his escapades with the coctail waitresses is hilarious. Like a small child looking to see how his father will react after being told of his being naughty.
Yeah you could feel his embarrassment 🤣
Strong little Brother and weak big Brother!
2:08 Hagen is in the background, then Fredo covers him and finally Mike asks Hagen to come closer, completely ignoring Fredo. In a few seconds, the filmmaker has given us tons of information about the role that each one plays in the family. A masterpiece.
Love Fredo’s white shoes. I love how Al and Tom look completely horrified when Fredo opens the door. They knew this was going to be shut down.
I like the bell hop’s face when Fredo doesn’t tip him. Wonderful detail of Fredo’s immaturity.
I love the look on Tom's face when Moe says hello to him. Tom didn't say hello back just gave this look that says This is going to be bad LMAO
“He was banging cocktails waitresses 2 at a time. Players couldn’t get a drink at the tables”
that part gets me every time 😂😂😂
Yeah and from what I can understand from the Original Novel, Vito Did not approve of what fredo was doing. He thought that he was acting like a degenerate Doing that sort of thing.
I know it gets me too 🤣😂🤣🤣 its the way moe indignantly blurts it out 🤣🤣
There are so many little things in this scene that adds a great sense of reality. Michael scratching his upper lip, Moe gently moving the glass out of his way, and Johnny just sitting there awkward as hell in the middle of these big mafia guys arguing lol.
Moe Green dose the voice for Roger Myers JR in The Simpsons
Mike, you don't come to Las Vegas and talk to a man like Moe Greene like DAT!
3:50 Moe moves the glass forward on the table, 3:56 the glass is back where it was (Moe's elbow)
NICE DETAIL MAN
Big deal. Continuity errors don't mean nothing
My favorite scene. Epic movie. Amazing actors. Wow......
What an actor late John Cazale! Rip
And he was knocking the bottom out of Meryl Streep
Liars jealous pimp is a pimple on my ass stay out my area unless u pay uioun dos welcome to my world now
John only appeared in 5 films yet they were all nominated for Best Picture. During the filming of The Deerhunter his illness became noticeably worse. The studio wanted to get rid of him saying the insurance was too high. Robert DeNiro stepped in covered Johns insurance costs so he could carry on filming.
@@frankcastle7036 yeah. They were in love i guess
@@Frankie-q5o yep I know that already :)
"You straightened my brother out?"
One of the most memorable lines for me. It was pretty clear what it meant and the line was delivered with no visible emotion.
Fredo is in an abusive relationship
With Moe or his brother, Michael?
@@admiralflynn895 with moey, he doesn´t love him!
@@davecorns7630This may.
Shock you Dave but according to the original book Apparently fredo was banging cocktail waitresses Two at a time. And according to that doctor friend of lucy mancini's.. Fredo had needed to be treated twice for syphilis.And at least once for the Clap. Basically fredo Was the original bareback rider. And apparently his father did not approve of that sort of thing that much because he was very straight laced about sex.
Alex Rocco who played Moe Green was in reality connected with the mob. Kinda ironic. I’ve always enjoyed watching him in any screen role he had. He was even great as Matt LeBlanc’s dad in “Episodes.”
