7beers The way Part 2 juxtaposes the scenes of young Vito & Godfather Michael are a thing of beauty. The more Vito tries to save his son, the more he is, in fact, sowing the seeds for his ultimate destruction. It's Ironic (in the true sense of the word), Tragic (in the Greek sense of the word), and American (in the "American Dream Gone Bad" sense of the word)...

+GavinJ37 He was part of a lot of shitty movies over the last 15 years, you are right. However, Silver Linings was a really great movie and what was the result?: Another Oscar nomination after 20 years. Furthermore, he gave some of the best performances of all time and was part of some of the best movies of all time in the 70s, 80s and 90s.
There are at least 2 things one can say about this performance that qualify it as great film acting: (1) DeNiro was able to create nuance and depth WHILE NOT EVEN SPEAKING HIS NATIVE TONGUE. He speaks, what, four words in English the entire film? That alone is an incredible feat. (2) More significantly, when one considers how by the time Godfather II was released in 1974 the character of Vito Corleone had been so INDELIBLY linked to Brando in the public consciousness, what DeNiro achieved here was remarkable. Most actors would find it impossible to play this role and not impersonate a young Brando. But DeNiro doesn't do that here: indeed, he plays a young VITO! How can anyone follow Brando? Well, DeNiro essentially did. Incredible, incredible acting. Added bonus: consider how different this performance is from DeNiro's role in Mean Streets (released the previous year - 1973). Yes they're both Italian hoods, but the CHARACTERS are different. Corleone is calculated, whereas Johnny Boy is an impulsive hothead.
In case you haven't already noticed, both Oscar-winning actors in the first 2 Godfather films were not there to accept the award. Marlon Brando won Leading Actor in 1973 and wasn't there and Robert De Niro wasn't here for this 1975 Supporting Actor win, either.
+Reds1921 it was just a coincidence. Brando also personally accepted his first Oscar ("On the Waterfront") Another coincidence is that Jake LaMotta (Robert de Niro) quotes Brando's iconic monologue from "On the Waterfront" in "Raging Bull"
Very disappointing that neither had the decency to accept such an important award. It's like cooking up a fancy dinner for an important guest and he/she doesn't show up. How would you feel?
Robert De Niro has great acting in The Godfather Part II. Marlon Brando and Robert De Niro became the first pair of actors to win Academy Awards for playing the same character until Heath Ledger and Joaquin Phoenix became the second pair of actors to win Academy Awards for playing the Joker.
Now Rita Moreno and Ariana DeBose have joined the ranks for playing the same role in both versions of West Side Story and winning the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress.
+nonplayerzealot4 Even further than that. The Last Picture Show was his first biggie in 1971. Beautiful film. Of course, he was just a youngster. He got his very first nomination for it.
colderbeer ABSOLUTELY!! AND over the course of his career, he's only done a fraction of piece-of-shit movies in comparison to what De Niro has degraded himself in the past several years. More importantly though, I think that Bridges has been much more interesting and varied in his characterizations of the roles he's played throughout his career, than one-note, thuggish De Niro has.
Sometimes, it will cause them all to cancel each other out. Voters may hate to have to choose, so they give it to someone in another film. This was one exception, of course.
Is it me or does it feel like everyone forgets De Niro was IN this movie and that he won an Oscar for it? Without a doubt he's the best part of Godfather 2.
I didn’t like the way he elbowed her so she can start reading the nominees. And did you see the way he almost blew it by almost announcing the winner before reading the names😄
De Niro was deserving but you gotta feel for bonafide Hollywood legend Fred Astaire getting his only (!!!) nomination here for a performance that won him both Golden Globe and BAFTA. That loss had to sting.
I mean now a days if someone were to wear a low neckline dress like that no one would care. But yes if I had an 11 year old daughter and she wore a dress like that, I would make her go change her outfit immediately. But again that was Tatum's choice so I don't think it is anyone's business.

Almost 2021 and people don't understand that they can't decide others people life
This is kind of sad/disturbing since Griffin O'Neal (son of Ryan, brother of Tatum} would later be involved in a motorboat accident which cased the death of Gian-Carlo Coppola (son of Francis). Very sad. You can ever see cracks developing between Ryan andTatum here which apparently still exist.
The O'Neal family is cursed. Tatum's mother, Joanna Moore, had a decades long drug problem so it's not all Ryan's fault. Her mother can be seen before all the problems kicked in as Sheriff Taylor's rich girlfriend in four episodes of "The Andy Griffith Show." She's really wonderful in that part and we can only wonder what if her life had taken a different turn. Her problems were staggering - booze, speed, multiple marriages and multiple arrests, loss of custody of her children, the loss of three fingers, etc. I still there there's a curse around Ryan O'Neal though.
@@bijaykhanal1448 lol at best its Adam Driver who definitely deserves it. But i think Joaquin will still take it due to his long history of losses and its deserved and overdue. De Niro was good in Irishmen but not the best performance or better than Phoenix or Driver. Didn't even clip the Golden Globe nods
Usually, I'm not a big fan of the Oscars. But this award, during this particular year, went to the right guy. DeNiro's performance as a young Vito Corleone was spellbinding to say the least, and one of the most impressive performances that I have ever seen an actor deliver in a Hollywood movie.
@@ralphadamo1857 And Jack Nicholson, and Daniel Day-Lewis, and Marlon Brando, and Al Pacino, and Anthony Hopkins, and Javier Bardem, and Paul Newman, and Christoph Waltz, and Christian Bale, and Joe Pesci, and Robert Duvall... I mean, a load of fucking idiots, right?
@@necroyoli08 I didn't say that every Oscar winner had to kiss the rear ends. Had John Cazale lived long enough, the Academy would likely have come through, just like they did for Al Pacino and Paul Newman after years and years of unrewarded first-class performances. As for Javier Bardem, he got his relatively early by kissing rear end. His acting sucks.
Wow. They fucked that up. They almost opened the god damn envelope before announcing the nominees, and then sped through the nominees in like 5 seconds.
I would have loved to see Frank Pentangeli win an Oscar and give a speech. "I don't know nothin' about that.. Oh! I was in movie with Deniro but that was a long time ago". lol
@@ChrolliForever Maybe Cazale should have won. He is as good as De Niro. I would actually get to John Huston in Chinatown after De Niro and Cazale before Strasberg and Gazzo.
Fred Astaire takes a deep sigh at 1:53 and he and Lee Strassberg both look disappointed when DeNiro's name is called. Too bad only one winner per category.
De Niro did enrich us with many, many films... Unfortunately he started making some less than wise decisions and now we have to try and pretend they don't exist
I was so glad when it did not go to Fred Astaire. I THOUGHT he had for doing nothing in The Towering inferno. Glad the academy voted for performance not sentimentality
Lee Strasberg and Michael V. Gazzo most underrated actors ever. They were both extraordinary in the Godfather Part II. I wish they would also win an oscar for their performances✉️🏆
No one was more deserving of the Best Supporting Actor that year than Robert De Niro. His portrayal of the young "Don Vito Corleone", had been widely acclaimed by both audiences and critics alike. He would have a long and illustrious career ahead of him.
They're generations apart, but Jack Nicholson is sitting right next to Fred Astaire, two legends together bridging Hollywood's entire history. I wonder what they said to each other.
RIP - Ryan O’Neil. I remember being rather shocked when I first learned of his tumultuous family and personal drama, after I’d seen Love Story and finding his screen presence so charming and likable. Felt so bad for his daughter Tatum and it scared me to learn the dark side of the famed Hollywood life. Then when I lived in Los Angeles in late 90’s and early 2000’s, I met Ryan O’Neil’s younger brother who I believe then was also an actor, who was dating Rebecca DeMornay. They were a very nice couple.
I know it's just a matter of opinion but DeNiro's performance as young Don Corleone was IMO his most impressive. The way he replicated the work of Brando--arguably the best role from arguably the greatest actor in Hollywood history--speaks volumes to DeNiro's uncanny ability as an actor. Yes, DeNiro has performed great in other role,s including those you mentioned, but I think this was by far his most impressive work.
Fredo steals the scenes he is in GF2. That scene with him and Michael and Moe Green, for instance, is so incredibly powerful because of Cazale's nervous gestures throughout. The scene where Mike disowns him as family, same thing. Again, down in Cuba, Cazales steals the scenes. Deniro is my all time favorite actor, but Cazale should have got the award in this supporting actor category, this year. Deniro rightfully has his shining moment in the lead role category for his work in "Raging Bull"
Lee Strasberg: "I didn't win? But... But... I PIONEERED Method acting!" De Niro: "Yeah, but look, I'm so method, that when I play Marlon Brando in a Godfather movie, I win an Oscar and then don't show up to collect it! That's going deep!"
Bob Hope. Ryan & Tatum O,Neal. Tatum is Ryan,s daughter. She played Paper Moon. Godfather, pt. 1 . Pt. 2, etc. Robert DeNiro. Title song Godfather is in the background.
Vito Corleone won two oscars, then. One for Brando, another for De Niro.
and niether accepted theirs
That's the most accurate comment ever. Long life Don Vito.
@@RobPires You nailed it.
That means Brando has got 3 Oscars in his lifetime
MRK Hub Umm, no.
One for Brando. One for De Niro. The child actor who played me as a young boy should have been nominated too.
And may he be a masculine child

Watching godfather 2 right now. I must say I watch each of the first and second movies once a month. Each viewing is just as rich and rewarding.
What the hell is Tatum wearing?? All wrong.
+thecatatemyhomework What is she wearing? A dress that she could've worn as a 35 year old? Is that what yer driving at? Haha.
Yeah that dress did look a little inappropriate even for the 70s. Wasn't she like between 12-14.
thecatatemyhomework I think it was far more ladylike and becoming than the tuxedo she wore the year before.
Yeah, she’s 11 here.
@@SexyButCurious she was 11
"..he will rich the film.. films out of made years to come" omg he could not have been more correct! :D
Oh I saw Frankie! He's great actor in godfather 2
Imagine a movie had 3 nominations for a role. Young vito corleone, frank pentangeli, and hyman roth from godfather 2.
Deniro was working on Novacento during the awards.
Very deserving acknowledgment, indeed.
We did not know at that time...how bright is the future going to be for Mr.De Niro.
good god.
Jeff Bridges looked 40 for 30 years.
He was only like 25 back then
Where was Bobbie?
1:48, he signalled her to announce d nominees
My God, what a category!!!
Who loved all three Godfather films hit like
I'm sure glad they put the SIMULATED disclaimer in there lest something think it wasn't simulated.
Fredo steals the scenes he is in GF2. That scene with him and Michael and Moe Green, for instance, is so incredibly powerful because of Cazale's nervous gestures throughout. The scene where Mike disowns him as family, same thing. Again, down in Cuba, Cazales steals the scenes.
Deniro is my all time favorite actor, but Cazale should have got the award in this supporting actor category, this year. Deniro rightfully has his shining moment in the lead role category for his work in "Raging Bull"
" He will enrich films yet too come "
Indeed he did
Lee Strasberg: "I didn't win? But... But... I PIONEERED Method acting!"
De Niro: "Yeah, but look, I'm so method, that when I play Marlon Brando in a Godfather movie, I win an Oscar and then don't show up to collect it! That's going deep!"
😂😂 but I am sure Lee strasberg is proud of de niro . De niro was also a student in actors studio
I'm sure Lee Strasberg felt very awkward, he's the best drama teacher.
Bob Hope. Ryan & Tatum O,Neal. Tatum is Ryan,s daughter. She played Paper Moon. Godfather, pt. 1 . Pt. 2, etc. Robert DeNiro. Title song Godfather is in the background.
DeNiro stole al pacino the show :D
