"The Sorrows of the Godfather"
Maxine 2022-04-22 07:01:01
Needless to say, Marlon Brando's superb acting skills in this film are more than tears. His majestic face and lazy but fierce eye bags are impressive and unforgettable. In the movie, as the godfather, Brando's pressure and responsibilities are unprecedented. Is the mafia underworld very arrogant, let's see the fate of everyone. Everyone's life is like a catkin floating in the air, which may fall at any time. Intriguing and heart-to-heart strategizing is a necessary quality for a godfather. At the same time, he also needs to take care of his family and love life. The old godfather in his later years suddenly disappeared while enjoying family fun with his grandson. The son who took on the destiny of the new generation of godfather has experienced the life of escape and other places, and his eyes have gradually become firmer. When he said those words in the church, his face did not change color and his heart did not beat, and it was a bloody storm outside. In the face of his wife's questioning, the lie saved the family and saved the love. However, when the wife saw that her husband's door was closed, she must have warned herself that everything was false. Behind the pretense, the new godfather inherits his father's love, and the new godfather rises and bows with a low eyebrow.

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.
