Michael and Tom were one hell of a duo.

An observation. Tessio's men were guarding Don Vito at the hospital the night Michael stopped by to check on him but found they were all gone. The nurse says the men were sent away because they were interfering with hospital business--as if you can intimidate some wiseguys guarding their Don. No. Michael misses it. Tessio had already set up Don Vito to be killed for Barzini and Solazo. It was Tessio who all the way plotting that the Don was weak and needed to be eliminated to cut a deal with Barzini and have his own family. Later, when the gang is discussing what do to with Solazo, Tessio is there also in on the plot and doesn't give up Michael to Solazo and the Captain. Instead he allows Solazo to be killed in order to cut a deal with Barzini and take over Solazo's drug racket. Tessio was working on betraying the Don and the Family early on.

Clemenza: war general.
Tesssio: Genius level strategist.

I like that Michael says "Tessio *WAS* always smarter" 😂

Michael said he was gonna wait until after the baptism. But he killed them all DURING the baptism.

Tessio's not _that_ smart. His body language toward Barzini after he tells Michael about the meeting is too obsequious. He should have made more of a show of _not_ being too deferential or close to the other boss, to show the world that his loyalty was to Michael.

One hell of a scene...💯🔥Smart move tackled with Boss move .💪🏻

[Octavian]

A traitor reveals himself at your father's funeral. Michael knew it was coming, but not this way...

The actor who played Tessio was only 46 years old in this movie

Barzini wants too arrange a meeting why would a boss talk too a capo Barzini should of spoke too Mike

[shadeofshattered]

For films sake they spoke here but in real life they wouldn't be having this discussion right there

[jolmtiv]

Tessio reminds me of hass kazeroonian lol...the last ride lol...

[shadeofshattered]

Tessio didn't think this threw after all the aggresion barzini shown to family requesting to meet Michael alone just said let me kill you

[alanramosfernandes]

Clemenza sempre me pareceu mais leal que Tessio ate porque ele tinha relação intima com a Família Corleone por ser padrinho do Sonny, ja o Tessio era só um aliado de trabalho que se vendeu e pagou caro por isso, alias senti muita falta do personagem do Clemenza no segundo filme apesar do gostar muito do Frank Pantangeli.

1:47 whos the guy whose hand he kisses

I always thought this scene was funny... Thugs at the funeral of a thug.
