The New Godfather - The Godfather (9/9) Movie CLIP (1972) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Michael (Al Pacino) lies to Kay (Diane Keaton) about what he did to Carlo and she fearfully watches as men pay respect to the new Don Corleone.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Popularly viewed as one of the best American films ever made, the multi-generational crime saga The Godfather is a touchstone of cinema: one of the most widely imitated, quoted, and lampooned movies of all time. Marlon Brando and Al Pacino star as Vito Corleone and his youngest son, Michael, respectively. 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." A few months later at Christmas time, the don barely survives being shot by gunmen in the employ of a drug-trafficking rival whose request for aid from the Corleones' political connections was rejected. After saving his father from a second assassination attempt, Michael persuades his hotheaded eldest brother, Sonny (James Caan), and family advisors Tom Hagen (Robert Duvall) and Sal Tessio (Abe Vigoda) that he should be the one to exact revenge on the men responsible. After murdering a corrupt police captain and the drug trafficker, Michael hides out in Sicily while a gang war erupts at home. Falling in love with a local girl, Michael marries her, but she is later slain by Corleone enemies in an attempt on Michael's life. Sonny is also butchered, having been betrayed by Connie's husband. As Michael returns home and convinces Kay to marry him, his father recovers and makes peace with his rivals, realizing that another powerful don was pulling the strings behind the narcotics endeavor that began the gang warfare. Once Michael has been groomed as the new don, he leads the family to a new era of prosperity, then launches a campaign of murderous revenge against those who once tried to wipe out the Corleones, consolidating his family's power and completing his own moral downfall. 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.

[Admmw]

The door to a normal life, Closed forever.

[enverunver]

Al Neri's smile at the end while closing the door gets the message "we do respect you mam but the business is just beyond that". Great acting.

[lizclegg]

Kay having the door shut in her face in this scene - it is echoed again in the scene where, after she and Michael have separated, she comes back secretly to see her children and he shuts the kitchen door in her face.

[johnhein]

I like the little smile from the gangster that closes the door, he's like, "Yeah, this is exactly what it looks like."

[quietdemon]

Al Pacino one of the greatest motion picture actors of all time in my opinion

[brainwasher]

Michael's expression when he loses his cool is super intense.

[vegetasolo]

Vito's cunning, Michael's ruthlessness, Fredo's sensitivity, Sonny's fiery temper and Tom Hagen's absolute loyalty

[Howlingburd]

The thing Al does better than any actor in history is his eyes. The way his eyes move, widen, and squint shows his emotions perfectly, and it’s honestly hypnotizing! Also, the character himself is mostly calm and very collected so when he does get angry it’s a lot more impactful!

And this movie is still a masterpiece in 2024

[harlemkidd]

Her face as the door closes is priceless. She knows he lying for one, and not only that, two he’s becoming the next Don

[vvenkat]

This is probably the greatest closing scene in cinema history...literally a door closed by Al Neri on Kay with perspective from the inside. And then there was darkness.

I sincerely hope no one decides to "remake" this movie.

[harryle]

"When you say no, you have to make it sounds like a yes." One of the thing Vito taught his son in the book. While it's in a different context, it applies perfectly to this scene. The long pause, his voice and his body language when saying "No" make it sound so convincing. Al Pacino, you nailed it.

[dejabu]

you don't see acting like this anymore, what a great chemistry between Pacino and Keaton and  course the great talent of Coppola to put together such as an epic and outstanding scene, brilliant, bravo 

[leipei]

By the way. Michael did not lie. He did not kill C, his man did.

[HJMXmechuchemen]

The 10 dislikes comes from Paulie, Sollozo, McCluskey, Bruno Tattaglia, Moe greene, Philip Tattaglia, Barzini, Cuneo, Stracci and Carlo.

[chadchelo]

The full circle, Kay watches helplessly as Michael truly becomes his father in every way, even more cunning than his father in some ways.

[hinkuro]

Originally Michael's final line, just as the door closes, was "HOO-AH"

[oludascribe]

that single act of closing the door as the capo regime pay respect to MichaEl, has to be one of my fav scenes in any movie. It has so many layered meanings it's unbelievable. As Michael gains a new family and position in the family, and is welcomed into the business that his father once kept him out of, Kay who was once his confidant and the closest person to him is shut out literally and metaphorically. Dunno if FFC had this intention, but WOW, i dunno of any 5 seconds of film make me just think

[MichaelTheTenor]

In the book, Michael didn’t let himself to express direct rage to anybody.People just were shocked by his intimidating calmness and coldness of his look .

[laminage]

Do you realize that the Tie Michael is wearing is the "Same" Tie he wore when he went to New Hampshire to see Kay and he told her how "Legitimate" The Corlenone Family would be.

[piemant]

I love how Michael remains serene in whatever situation. His tone doesn't change. You can never tell if he's nervous or frightened or anything. He does a good job with retaining his cold blooded look in every case. I see this only with Michael in the entire movie. He never loses confidence and I think that is a very powerful trait.
