The most impressive detail in the Godfather's trilogy?

liquor.

At the beginning of the old godfather’s daughter’s wedding, when the old godfather was dealing with things, he always drank in small sips, and the cups he used were also “skilled” straight long cups—he had to keep his mind sober because he wanted to be right. All members of the family and faculty assume the responsibility of the godfather.

Later, after experiencing all sorts of changes such as his assassination, the death of Deli's subordinates, and the death of his son, the Kryon family has gradually declined, and he is also exhausted and half-retired. At this time, drinking is no longer as restrained as before. Not only does he drink more, but also uses a sleek goblet-his calm restraint and majesty have been consumed too much in each blow, and it is more reflected at this time. Much is the helpless confusion of a warmhearted person.

Such small details really make people feel the vicissitudes of life. Sad.

Today's shrewd and powerful Mike will not escape this fate in the future.

This can't help but make people sigh with emotion.

Another PO line that impressed me the most, it also appeared in this scene.

Women and children could be careless, but not men.

The Godfather quotes

  • Capt. McCluskey: I thought I got all you Guinea hoods locked up! What the hell are you doing here?

    Michael: What happened to the men who were guarding my father, Captain?

    Capt. McCluskey: I pulled them guys off of here, eh, now get away from this hospital!

    Michael: I'm not leaving until you put some guards around my father's room.

    Capt. McCluskey: Phil, take him in!

    Cop with Capt. McCluskey outside hospital: The kid's clean Captain, he's a war hero! He's never been mixed up with the rackets...

    Capt. McCluskey: Goddamn it Phil, I said take him in!

    Michael: What's the Turk paying you to set up my father, Captain?

    Capt. McCluskey: [to Patrolmen] Take a hold of him. Stand him up. Stand him up straight.

    [punches Michael and breaks his jaw]

  • Sollozzo: [to Michael, in Sicilian] I am sorry. What happened to your father was business. I have much respect for your father. But your father, his thinking is old-fashioned. You must understand why I had to do that. Now let's work through where we go from here.

    [Michael tries speaking in Sicilian, but can't express himself properly, so with a quick look at McCluskey they both switch to English]

    Michael: What I want... what's most important to me is that I have a guarantee: no more attempts on my father's life.

    Sollozzo: What guarantees could I give you, Mike? I'm the hunted one. I've missed my chance. You think too much of me, kid. I am not that clever. All I want is a truce.

    Michael: I have to go to the bathroom. Is that all right?

    Capt. McCluskey: You gotta go, you gotta go.

    [Michael gets up, but a suspicious Sollozzo probes Michael's crotch, to Michael's offense]

    Capt. McCluskey: I frisked him. He's clean.

    Sollozzo: Don't take too long...

    [Michael heads to the bathroom]

    Capt. McCluskey: [to Sollozzo] I frisked a thousand young punks.
