What’s the movie The Godfather about?
Discover, Marlon Brando and Al Pacino starring as Vito Corleone and his youngest son, Michael, respectively in : “The Godfather”.
It is the late 1940s in New York and Corleone is, in the parlance of organized crime, a "godfather" or "don," the head of a Mafia family. Michael, a free thinker who defied his father by enlisting in the Marines to fight in World War II, has returned a captain and a war hero. Having long ago rejected the family business, Michael shows up at the wedding of his sister, Connie (Talia Shire), with his non-Italian girlfriend, Kay (Diane Keaton), who learns for the first time about the family "business." Nominated for 11 Academy Awards and winning for Best Picture, Best Actor (Marlon Brando), and Best Adapted Screenplay, The Godfather was followed by a pair of sequels.

Still to this day you worry the gun isn’t going to be there lol.
I’m not. I know the gun would be there since I put it myself (I played the videogame).
Or that it would jam.
I know, right!?
@Repent! I'm trying.
@Repent! I've done all I can do.
What I love about this scene is that it actually goes according to plan. Usually when characters go “here’s what we’re gonna do” and explicitly lay out a plan, it’s a dead giveaway that something’s going to go really wrong. Watching Michael pull it off is still one of the biggest thrills I’ve ever experienced from a movie
No he dropped the gun wrong
More or less. He didn't do 2 shots each in the head, and he didn't drop the gun carefully (with his hand at his side).
@@sailbatten2056 true Michael makes a couple missteps out of nervousness, which adds to the realism for me. I was mainly talking about him successfully pulling off the murders and making it to Sicily
biggest thrill? Although its fiction its still a double murder you freak.
@@keirmardy2267 {sigh}. You _do_ understand that despite their role in organized crime, the Corleone family are the protagonists in this film, right? The antagonists are the guys that are threatening the life of his father, and have even attempted killing him twice already. "Thrill" is appropriate. Perhaps think things through before you call someone a freak, hmmmm?
This was filmed 49 years ago. It's still just as shocking a scene now as it was when it was released. Timeless film.
Technically, it was filmed 50 years ago.

All greatness is timeless. Frank Lloyd Wright, Francis Coppola, Gold, The human soul.
@@davidburkholder7360 What does does FLW have to do with this classic film. He was a rip off artist
no its not.
I love how the Train Sounds shows us how panicked Michael was in his Head. In the Book, almost everything to Michael at this time was a Blur to him.
I always attributed the train sound to a train arriving at its station, symbolizing Michael’s worked up the courage to pull the trigger. What enforced this idea of mine was the natural screaming of the train serving to muffle the gunshots.
Plus Michael’s face when the train shouts to me “This is my moment!”
It’s a good way to convey the tension and anxiety of the scene.
your wrong.
Yall niggas kap
Ne, Ne, Nee. Ist der covering up of der gun sounds he is vaiting for.
I love how everyone always talks about this moment like it’s so surprising, when everything basically goes according to plan. Just goes to show how genius this film is.
I know right
They added to the drama when Michaal reached up and didn't find the gun right away. We all heard sonnys voice talk about don't let my brother come out of the bathroom with just his d*ck in his hand.
@@rpierce3336 also the fact that he sat down again like he got cold feet.
@@marcellXcatalyst he sat down again because they were looking at him when he came out of the bathroom. That was calculated, if he pulled his gun they would have reacted and he was to far to ensure he killed them. By sitting again, he put them at ease again, then stood up and fired 3 shots.
@@rpierce3336 If Michael came out if the bathroom with no gun he would've been forced to make a deal.
The last moment before he leaves the bath room, Michael hesitates and take a deep breadth. It was a great attention to details that Michael is going to cross the line where he will never be the same. Great acting by Al Pacino.
AL not AI!
AL Pacino the OG!
Most of the people I've talked to about this scene agree that the first time they saw it it felt like their heart was going to beat out of their chest.
It's such a nice touch how he doesn't find the gun right away and panics that maybe it's not there.
Mine too, just everything about it is perfect! The fact they speak Italian to each other, that he didn't find the gun straight away, the tension the music creates, that he shot Sollozzo first, that he didn't follow Clemenza's plan exactly. Just MWAH 🤌🏼
I bingewatched the whole 9 hours of Godfather one weekend. The final shot of Michael says it all. All the killing, all that heartache and for what.
Great film.
Same here.
2:22 When you complete a hit and realize that the gun you’re holding has been in a restroom all day.
Those music cords as Mike is leaving the restaurant has to be one of the most dramatic pieces of music in a movie scene ever!!
I'll never know what it feels like to watch for the first time, in theaters, back in the 70's.
Every once in awhile, a movie chain might play the classics on their screens. I saw this movie on the big screen, about 4 years ago. Also saw West Side Story that way....
I know the theaters today should have a section or a whole theater where they play older movies.. if I had a theater I would love to play a lot of 80’s movies and have premieres on the original release date. Would love to watch First Blood and Rocky 4 and Terminator on the big screen
Lucky you
@@ncasti Yeah, but that doesn't help the OP. He only gets one first time viewing.
I'm 71 and here to tell you, it was awesome!
Hollywood sure doesn’t make movies like this anymore.
For real. Nowadays in Hollywood, when you get shot in the head you don't try to reach for you throat. Your character falls dead.
Do you mean mafia movies? They do….
@Laughing Batman That was a Great film.
@Laughing Batman the last one
Hollywood did not make films like that back then. They made The Godfather and Godfather 2. No other “films” were made back then that were like them.
"I have frisked a thousand young punks"
- McCluskey's last words on this planet.
How’s the food in this Italian restaurant? Good. Try the veal. It’s the best in the city, you won’t eat nothing else after you taste this tonight.
“I have frisked a thousand young pricks”
Some random priest
And Michael would be punk number 1,001. It would be the last one for the miserable old bastard...lol
Yup his last words were bragging about feeling up young boys.
And his last meal
1:30 - 1:32 This is such amazing acting. His face tells it all. For some reason, this is my favorite part. And he was completely zoned out, but when Sollozo started talking to him, that "woke" him up.
Always thought it was the train going by that woke him
@@fishsquishguy1833 I actually never realized that there was a actual train that was riding by, I always thought it was a sound effect put in to represent the chaos in Michael's mind
He was waiting for the Subway train to make a little bit of background noise!! Nice....
He need train' noise to cover up the gut shot to prevent the followers to get in to help.
Tell you what this exact scene made me watch the trilogy and became one of my favorite film if all time. Especially Godfather 2
Michael was so anxious that he couldn't even hear Sollozzo's final words. However, he accomplished the most important indication: to kill Sollozzo first. The book shows how this was not random. Had Michael killed McCluskey first, Sollozzo could have been fast enough to react (and for sure shoot him with his own gun, which he most probably had). McCluskey was heavy and slow, he couldn't react quickly
A kid watching the movie would know that. Shut up genius
@@pauladam9317kisses for you
I don' think it was only that. The main difference between Sollozzo and McCluskey is that Sollozzo knew he had to be always alert in front of Michael, he had tried to kill his father after all, and he was just another punk like him, while McClusky never thought that Michael would dare to kill a cop, that is why he had to be slower to react, he had to come to terms first with the fact that the punk in front of him had a real gun and he was going to kill him, thus giving a precious time advantage to Michael.
@@Guamparrapo83 😂
He could only break jaws of indefense men
*Plot twist: Sollozzo wasn’t frisking him for weapons. He was just in the mood*
He was asking Michael for a date and poor him, Michael said no.
🤣 Yo' why have I always said this as well.
🤣
😆😆😆😆
He just wanted some Italian meatballs to go with his spaghetti.
You can tell this place has great food, the other patrons were so reluctant to leave their tables.
Plus, McCluskey kept right on chewing even after being hit with the second bullet. Food so good that he’d trade his dying breathes for the taste of it.
LMAO
They got a free show with dinner. 😀
Hey, it’sa all part of the atmosphera 👌
Let it sink in that this film came out almost 50 years ago and isn't matched to this date - that's what makes it a masterpiece.
Legend (2015) is a pretty good substitute
@@ass-master-deluxe if you're referring to the Tom Hardy Film depicting The Kray Twins, I agree that's a good film but doesn't come close to Godfather 1 & 2
@@beardedbloke2521 what criteria are you even ranking by?
The shot when he has left the stall and has his head in his hands physcing himself up with the train buzzing in the backround is beautiful
First he holds his head like he's nervous; them he slicks back his hair, like, let's do it.
Never in a million years would Sollozzo have agreed to have dinner with Michael just days after trying to kill Vito.
The rule about never killing a cop made him think he was protected by having the captain there.
@@de6212 The Mafia had often killed cops before 1945.
@@de6212 Michael would obviously kill the corrupt cop.
People would then ask why was a police captain having dinner with an infamous mobster.
@@MarkHarrison733is there any list of this?
When you involved in the mob, and a guy excuses himself to go to the restroom, run.....
"I've frisked a thousand young punks." Great line. McCluskey is overconfident. They're vulnerable.
McCluskey knew that mobsters never kill a cop, or a judge. That is one thing they can't do so he was 100% sure Michael wouldn't touch him, he was there to protect Sollozzo.
I guess the veal really was that good.
That makes no sense
@@rover5058 my comment or ruben's?
@Repent! No.
Notice that Pacino ever so slightly bumps the camera as he's leaving. That tells you they were shooting in the tight confines of a real Italian restaurant (Old Luna Restaurant in The Bronx).
@Dankenstein nope...saw it...2:23....
How the actual F you catch that...LOL
How in the fuck did they avoid actually killing someone during the filming of this scene??
Oh, that’s right, Alec Baldwin wasn’t there.
Actually "Louies" was a real restaraunt at the corner of 213 Street and White Plains Road in the Williamsbridge section of the Bronx if I remember correctly. I ate there when just a kid and remember those very same toilets. This scene was indeed filmed there.
Leave the gun, take the best veal in the city.
Don't run out and don't look at anyone's face lol
How’s the food in this restaurant? Best in town, you won’t eat nothing else after you taste this tonight.
I remember watching this and hoping he wouldn't go through with it. Until this moment he was a good man. Innocent. This was his first step towards a very dark life.
He probably killed a few people in the war.
@@TheRealCaptainFreedom That wasn't murder.
Pacinos emotive acting is masterful in this film.. Gets every facial expression right.
I read somewhere that in the original scene idea the table wasn’t supposed to fall over. But it made such a visceral impact on the scene that Coppola left it in.
From that seated position, when he falls on the table, there is no way that table would fall over.
Link? Or it didn’t happen
I believe you can see that it is a simple plywood circle set on simple table leg frame. A quick way of the set builders to make a round table. (They weren't expecting the tablecloth to come off, or they wouldn't have used period incorrect plywood.)
@@richardpallaziol7970one of my brothers' friends is of Italian descent. I went to his house with my brother and SIL and their kids one Thanksgiving. He talker about a gabon table-the act of putting a huge sheet of plywood over a table to increase seating capacity. That scene made me think of it!
"I've frisked him, he's clean"
Michael:For now
I still don't get why he was worried about Micheal shooting the toilet.
Moral of this scene: frisk your man after taking a leak, not before.
Yes they should have knew that what if we come back with something they should have knew don't leave all my site
If you look at the moment Michael shoots McCluskey in the throat the bloody wound is already on his forehead, then it disappears then reappears in the next scene.
Yeah. Big mistake
Yep. SOMEBODY got fired.
So how Mc Cluskey keeps alive after the second shoot in his head
@@griffith2995 The entry wound would be as big as the bullet that made it, it's the exit wound that be bigger.
@@griffith2995 I'll take your word on that then as like you say, I've never been unlucky enough to have seen a real gunshot wound
2:03 gotta love how the blood appears on his forehead before Michael even fires the gun 😂
2:13 😂😂😂 That head dive into the table cracked me up!
Made me think of Matt Foley and his table manners.
So you noticed it also!! To shoot that scene over had to be really really expensive i'm guessing??
@@petereconomakis149 Back then we didn't have instant replay. It looked seamless back then. It only looks this way because you have modern technology to freeze frame and watch as many times as you like.
VHS would degrade over time if you hit rewind to many times on it.
@@OldieWan I noticed it the very first time I watched it. I had to replay it to make sure I wasn’t wrong lol.
@@OldieWan I like the way McCluskey is wondering if he still has a chance to have another bite of his dinner before getting whacked.
Love the way Micheal sits down,and lets the tension build wonderful writing,camera work on his face u can see him playing out actions n head!great
And the sound of that train.
If you look closely at the second guy he shot, right after the first bullet hits him, you can see the blood cap on his forehead before the headshot 😂🤣😂🤣
well done
Godfather Stans: "No but you see this is the pure genius of The Godfather, the Bloodstain on his forehead before the shot perfectly foreshadows him getting shot in the head 2 seconds later. This movie is perfectly executed because the man had a hole in his head before he was executed, it was a good use of metaphor"

Awesome catch!
Yep, something changed in editing... Maybe it's explained in some behind the scenes stuff or some book, otherwise we'll probably never know how this scene was originally meant to play out.
I was 14 years old when this first came out at the movies unreal back then.Back then you needed adult with you to get into the theater.
Silly boomer, you still need an adult to see an R rated film at the movies if you're under 17.

ROLLING ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING MY FUCKING ASS OFF!!!!
GREATEST COMMENT HERE PERIOD….
Great joke. Now go hire a bodyguard. Or two.
Now for something like this, youre gonna need one gun. Youre gonna want something with more power than a 22. You definitely dont want a silencer, you want to make alot of noise to make the witnesses run away so they aint gonna be looking at you. But not the noise a 45 makes because that makes too much noise and a patrol car can hear that a few blocks away at least. Sometimes with something like this, you might want to go to the bathroom first. It makes sure no one follows you in, and it makes sure no one is in the bathroom that you have to worry about. It also gives you a chance to go to the bathroom. You dont want to be uncomfortable. It also is the place where your given gun is.
Would a small pocket .380acp work well?
...The Irishman.
A 22 is plenty big enough to kill someone
Clamenza actually says something similar to Mike just before this scene.
This trilogy is timeless and has no competition. Period.
The third doesn’t hold up as much as the first two, and because of that LOTR beats it as a trilogy.
@@ineverswag agreed
@@ineverswag Agreed
Third episode came up short. I see what Coppola was aiming for, he fell just short of achieving perfection. Andy Garcia, bless his soul, gave 110% to his role. Sadly, Pacino had forgotten how to be Michael. And Coppola's daughter, Sofia, despite her incredible beauty, couldn't act her way out of a ziploc bag. Joe Mantegna's Joey Zaza JUST missed the mark. He gets an A for effort. Sadly nobody could save the film. Now, on its own, away from its two predecessors, it's not a bad movie. It's just not on the same level as the first two, both Best Picture Oscar winners and deservedly so.
The acting of Al Pacino, especially the part where he sat back his seat, trying to decide when to pull the gun is just phenomenal
Vito broke his handgun into many parts and dropped them into stink pipes.. Michael drops it at the scene…. So much for police work improving
@Puddin Another aspect of dropping the gun at the scene was that it delays the Police from immediately obtaining a search warrant to search the Corleone estate for the weapon.
So true..if forensic was back then he would get caught ..
@Puddin also back in His father's era it wasn't any tape invented yet
@@anthonywhite5982 Fingerprinting was around since the late-1800’s. Firearm forensics (tracing a bullet or casing to the gun it was fired from) didn’t become a thing until the late 1960’s.
Nope clemenza told him to drop it and walk out casually
I thought the gun would go "badda bing ....badda bang"
The way he squirms even after getting shot in the head is just…. Brutal
He had a few seconds to realize he got a bullet in the brain.
He wondered why the veal suddenly tasted like lead.

This scene for me was the start of Michael as the Godfather. He stepped up, had the bravery to do what no one else wanted to. He even didn't follow Clemenza's plan exactly but this added to the tension more!
Really smart
Right on. He probably had done a lot of killing already but this is the first time the killing is his own decision, his business and his responsibility. He made the grade.

Michael didn't wash his hands before leaving the bathroom.
Hygiene is important.
The covid police are still looking for him.
He also left fingerprints all over his drinking glass, the door knobs and probably other surfaces and could be used to corroborate eye witnesses that weren’t sure if he was the killer, even several years later. This only works in the movies. Lol. Michael would have most likely went to prison for killing them after returning from Sicily.
He was not a restaurant worker.

I will never forget the first time I saw the Godfather. I was in my late teens. I always enjoyed mob stuff but somehow got to this a little later than Goodfellas and Casino.
This scene and the buildup to it was so gripping I felt nervous for Michael when he was doing this hit. I felt like it was me onscreen doing it and was nervous that the gun was not going to be in the bathroom. Lol.
Interesting they could pull-off a scene like this without actually killing someone……Isn’t that right Alec Baldwin?

One of the classic scenes from Godfather, I just wish they'd put the entire scene here.
The scene has to start with the conversation where Michael plots it and volunteers to do it. From that scene until this scene is probably one of the greatest examples of filmmaking in history. Just what Pacino does with his eyes in the seconds before he shoots them is like an eternity.
@@cjlaity1 "It's not personal, Sonny, it's strictly business."

Simply awesome
Only problem ive got with this is that when they're planning it Clemenza says' it's perfect for us , they've got an old fashioned toilet with the box and the chain' but there was nothing old fashioned about this in the 1940s
I don't remember the 40's
Actually the newer design “the flushometer” showed up in 1906, so while many older businesses in the city might still be the old design with the elevated box, the newer designs would be common in newer commercial settings and by the 1940s, especially in big cities, the flushometer would be very widespread and the elevated box would definitely be considered “old fashioned” for a commercial setting.

Typical fake eyetilian mobster film 😂😂😂😂😂
I love the morality play about complacency. "I've frisked a thousand young punks". Hayden, btw, was also a brilliant author and a thorough genius/rebel. He was picky about doing anything in H'wood and opted instead to spend most of his time hanging out in Sausalito, working on The Wanderer, his sailboat. He preferred only real "working boats". His book, The Voyage is page-turner.
what anxiety and satisfaction at the same time
The way Michael dropped that gun was like an MLB player flipping his bat after hitting a very satisfying home run. 😂
I remember the first time I watched it with my dad. I was 13 yo and this scene stayed in my head for a while. I don't think there are many scenes better than this one when it comes to the rawness of a cold-blooded murder

The 'Hit' on Sollozzo & McClosky by Michael was a 'Storyboard & Cinematic' Masterpiece...i.e., earlier, Santino chided Michael that he didn't have the 'Family Jewels' to kill up close, later, Clemenza instructed Michael, "Remember, 2 in the head apiece...". When the time came, Michael's military training, hatred, & resolve kicked in, and he killed Sollozzo up close, in the head, with ONE shot...whereas, when came time to kill McClosky, Michael flinch-balked, missed the intended target area at close range, and shot McClosky in the throat. However, on the 2nd shot, Michael's training & Clemenza's instructions kicked in, and he shot McClosky in the head, as per operations procedure. I applaud the the Script Writer/s.
This was the scene that saved Pacino's career.
Lol
The career he just started ?
you confuse this role with 'Scarface' 80's generation of gangsters or 'Scent of a Woman' when he was forced TO ACT again, fresh anew and stay off his lazy cliche's mannerisms and formula of "same persona" repeated role after role, audiences like to see but off place in roles he doesn't bother creating a new personality
@@pendragonU I'm sorry. I don't quite understand the last part
His mafia career
When he stood at the stall bathroom right before coming back out that’s when he made up his mind -there’s no going back.
He was committed before he even sat back down. Beautiful acting - all done in his eyes and posture.
It seems like everyone, including Michael's brother Sonny had forgotten that he had been a Marine in service in the South Pacific in WW2. That was some of the most brutal hand to hand fighting ever. Killing these guys would be baby shit for a combat Marine like Michael!
He could have taken alone the entire five families and just like Blondie in TGTBTU made mashed potatoes of all them. He had a Silver Star (for “gallantry in action against an enemy of the United States”); the Navy and Marine Corps Medal ribbon (offered to both USN and USMC servicemembers that risked their lives to save others); the Purple Heart (for “being wounded or killed in any action against an enemy of the United States or as a result of an act of any such enemy or opposing armed forces); the Asiatic-Pacific Campaign Medal (awarded to all U.S. military servicemembers who served between December 7, 1941 and March 2, 1946 in the Asiatic-Pacific theater area) and the European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal (showing that not only did he see Pacific action, he was also well active in Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East)
And this war hero was supposed to be all nervous about having to confront an old rotten cop and a punk..!
Killing mostly armed enemies in war would still be very different from assassinating unarmed people that you just shared a meal with.
@@tekkhero9767 Killing is killing, period. And if they are louses and rotten cops even better. Killing unarmed civilians in war is common.
@@AJ-is5ut What are, you apart from a rube...? Did someone pay you to check which is posting where and why...? If not, then shut up. As for making stuff up, then either recognize you are an hidyot who speaks through his hat or go away. The data can be Googled with this title.
Capt. Michael Corleone, USMC BAMF Style

"Michael's Medals:
"The Silver Star is awarded for “gallantry in action against an enemy of the United States”, and the ribbon consists of an Old Glory red center stripe with white, ultramarine blue, and white stripes extending outward on each side. It was first awarded in 1932 and is available to any uniformed servicemember, including a Marine like Michael"
"Next on the row is the Navy and Marine Corps Medal ribbon, consisting of equal stripes in navy blue, old gold, and apple red. The medal was established in August 1942 for “distinguishing oneself by heroism not involving actual conflict with an enemy of the United States” and is offered to both USN and USMC servicemembers that risked their lives to save others"
"Filling out the top row of Michael’s awards is the Purple Heart, famous from countless war films as a decoration for “being wounded or killed in any action against an enemy of the United States or as a result of an act of any such enemy or opposing armed forces”. Needless to say, Michael’s Purple Heart is from a wound"
And that is not all but enough. now go away.
If he was a marine then he would've fought all through iwojima to the Philippines. If he was stationed during 1942-1943 then he would've fought the japanese in the Philippines where they would've used guerrilla tactics. That's why Michael was resourceful and could think outside the box.
Dude my anxiety always goes up when he goes for the gun. Lol
“I frisked him. He’s clean.”
“Oh, I know. I thought I would just …”
