The Godfather I Meeting with Sollozzo HD

[r.b.ratieta]

"Why do I deserve this generosity?" Such a stealthy, clever way of asking, "Why do you think I'm an easier target than the others?"

[madinjun]

The way he calls over Sonny and scolds him like an 8 year old is genius.

[chillemdafoe]

One could argue this was the single most integral scene within the entire series seeing as that it set off a series of events that would shape the entire saga

[Tyriius]

At the end the godfather was right, every guy in real history whos business was drugs is either in prison or was shot dead.

[MohamedAlaa-lhmo]

Sollozo one of the best actors I have ever seen, I feel he's underrated

Vito: "Santino, what do you think?"
Sonny: "There's a lot of money in that white powder."
Vito (internally): "OK so now I know it's a bad idea"

[razvanteleanu]

Al Lettieri (Sollozzo) oozes danger and menace. A phenomenally talented actor.

The reason Sollozzo hit Don, was not just because, he knew Sonny was interested. But that, he could also see that Sonny, being a hot head and impulsive person, could be easily manipulated once Don Corelone is bumped off.

Greatest movie ever. Acting, script, scenery, plot, pace, etc.

[berwick]

“And tell Luca Brasi to come in”. The beginning of the end for big scary Luca.

[jacknife]

Brandos facial expressions talkin to Sollozzo was incredible, he was the perfect part for the Don.

I love that no matter how many times you see this movie (85 for me) there is always some little detail that comes through to remind you what a great thing it is. For example, notice how when everyone stands up signaling the end of the meeting, Sonny sits there an extra second like a whipped dog after the Don has very publicly scolded him for his little outburst during the parley. A thing like that is not an accident. Just beautiful.

[DrowningSorrows]

Everyone one knew Sonny messed up the minute Vito turned around to look at him lol

[Tony-gqpi]

I always asked my father for advice and i am glad i did.
93 years old and i was 62,
I miss him.
What pop said that would be it.

[jkta]

"My compliments" is a nice foreshadowing of the later scene where Sollozzo takes Tom hostage. He realizes that Tom did his research and could be a valuable asset to him.

[rondorthecruel]

I love how literally the exact moment Tom and Vito discuss major business, Sonny just starts chowing down on candies. Lol. Such a subtle, but masterful stroke of genius to show how Sonny would never be able to be a good Don in business.

[guillermosilva]

Not even Fredo fucked up in that meeting 🤦‍♂️

[laminage]

One thing I loved about Tom is that he was fully prepared.

[cnvrgnt]

The way Sonny tries to slink away unnoticed only for Vito to call him over and scold him like an 8 year old is absolutely incredible. Brando’s facial expressions and demeanor scream disappoints father
