Michael lost his humanity when his wife was blown up in front of him. From then on, everything he did was coldly logical and calculated. If someone crossed him, it didn’t matter who they were, they would be killed. He took emotion completely out of everything he did. Which is why he didn’t make the same kind of mistakes Sonny did, but also why he was never loved and respected like Vito, who played by a set of moral rules Michael abandoned in favour of utter ruthlessness.

I know we all know this entire scene is a masterclass in filmmaking. We can all agree on that. I just want more people to fully notice and appreciate the sound design here. With film we usually tend to focus on the visuals and the dialogue and the sound design takes a backseat role. The organ slides are super in your face but the slow creeping build up to that point and the use of silence during Michael's "I do renounce him" are just as worthy of discussion as Coppola's direction and Pacino's performance and Brando's performance and Puzo's screenplay and Gordon Willis' cinematography.

@Thomas Hogan Did you get molested when you were an alter boy?

Rewatching this, hearing the baby cry (Connie’s son) makes this all the more ominous It’s been speculated that this was Vito’s plan all along, but it was Michaels to execute being that Vito swore to never actually break the truce. Vito ultimate kill shot from the grave.

This scene changed movies forever. Nothing was ever shown with the drastic kind of contrast in one scene. Impeccable. Genius.

Kubrick did have that one cut in 2001, with the shot of the prehistoric bone cutting to a futuristic spaceship. That was a pretty dope contrast as well. But yeah, you can definitely see the influence this movie had, I've seen so many examples that remind me of the energy this scene has, it feels pretty modern for a movie shot in the early 70's

Michael is just like young Vito, as the second movie shows. Sonny couldn’t run it- too hot headed and quick to act on sudden passions, be it violent outbursts or sexual gratification. Fredo was weak- he watched his father get gunned down and didn’t do anything. How Michael dealt with Fredo’s betrayal would not have passed with Vito. Vito did everything for his family and Michael’s actions was a sure path to hell, in this life and the hereafter.

@OreadNYC

What I find a bit ironic (and also a little confusing) about this is the fact that with one exception, all the assassinations are almost clinical in their efficiency using pistols or a shotgun -- "it's just business." The assassination which stands out is the one where the Don is surprised in bed with a woman -- canon says it's Tattaglia. This assassination is almost the polar opposite of the others both in terms of cleanness and efficiency -- the assassin uses a submachine gun. The fact that this assassination is much more violent than the others suggests that this one is almost certainly NOT "just business"...this one's personal, particularly since the use of the submachine guns and the fact that Tattaglia has no protector with him makes his death very reminiscent of Sonny's death. So here's my question...why did Puzo choose to make Tattaglia's death so similar to Sonny's even though Tattaglia turned out to be little better than a catspaw for the true villain, Don Barzini? At least in my opinion, Barzini's death (he's the one shot on the steps of the courthouse) is much cleaner and quicker than he deserves since he's the one who orchestrated the attempt on Vito's life and Sonny's death -- possibly even Apollonia's accidental death as well. We are never told who engineered it but it was most likely someone back in America rather than someone in Sicily. Michael already knows by this time that Barzini is the real enemy, not Tattaglia...so why did Puzo decide to make Tattaglia rather than Barzini the victim of this particularly brutal and vicious assassination?

@markl1839

4 жыл бұрын

@@OreadNYC Barzini was the mastermind, but Sonny's war was with Tattaglia. The Tattaglias were bankrolling Sollozzo, who tried to take out Don Vito. Sonny retaliated by putting a hit out on Bruno Tattaglia (Philip's son); Sonny's death was reprisal for Bruno's. Barzini's plotting is within the rules. It's business, and Michael's preemptive strike is, in return, business. Tattaglia's real sin is his subservience to Barzini--Tattaglia is head of a family and should be subservient to no one. By making his family subordinate to another family, Tattaglia upsets the proper balance among all five. As Vito says, he's a pimp; therefore he is not to be respected. Because Tattaglia is no longer to be respected, any move he makes against any of the other families is inherently insulting. Tattaglia's death is not just business: it's also retaliation for Sonny, but perhaps more important thematically it's to make an example of him for his charade of masculinity as defined by the mafia code.

There is so much to this scene its amazing. Michael's nephew is named after him, and its customary for the Godparent to speak on behalf of the baptized. So while the baby is getting baptized into the church, Michael is going through a baptism of blood to become the head of the family. In that moment he becomes a Godfather in 2 ways. and thats just the surface of it

It's such an unimportant thing for most viewers but the fact Clemenza's shotgun actually shoots, with a pretty realistic amount of recoil has always left a strong impression on me.

On the outside: cold ice. His army: Carries the willing from the inside. From the inside: The fiery rage from Sonny and grief for Apollonia tempered by calculated action.

Notice how the murders begin once the organ music hits its first crescendo. Nice symbolism there.
