The foundation of Michael's character is that it's NEVER business, it's always personal. The one thing he never forgets is if you cross the Family. Even Vito could forgo vengeance for the murder of his son, in order to keep the peace. But Michael would literally murder his own brother to set him straight. From Captain McCluskey breaking his jaw and beyond, Michael took everything personally and brought the world down on himself by the third act
But Michael is no exception here. In both of your examples, when Vito and Roth say it's not personal, they're LYING! Vito swears it will not be him to break the peace in the very meeting where he deduces it was Barzini behind everything. That isn't forgiveness, that's a chess move; he is only able to keep that oath because he immediately hands his empire over to his son, and he urges Michael to act against Barzini. Equally, it's clear that for Hyman Roth is NOT just about business, he has a personal vendetta against Michael for killing Moe Green.
His breaking point was losing Apollonia, maybe his only true love or hope of things improving in his life. Family made him step up to defend his father, but he returned a very different man
His world ended at the end of part 2. He's sitting there alone. He's dead. Look at his eyes, he's done. His death at the end of part 3 was like Arte Johnson in Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In show in the 60s. Part 3 was un-needed.
Oh my God, why are people so stupid?? Vito was ready not to take revenge for Sonny because he was sick at the time and didn’t have the strength to fight with the five families, so he agreed to peace. As he later admitted to Michael, it was a sign of weakness. In the world of the mafia, weakness is not forgiven. Michael knew this, which is why, as a true man, he decided to take matters into his own hands and defend the family’s honor, since his father was no longer capable of doing so due to his health.
@@Carlito_Brigante93With some jusification he had a right to be angry. After all he knew that Michael was responsible for the death of Moe Greene. No matter how evil or obnoxious they each were, give them credit, they were brave enough (at that time) to stand up to Michael Corleone.
A perfect example of accusing someone without actually accusing them. Roth knew that Michael ordered the hit on Moe Greene and Michael knew that Roth knew.
Being able to work with your mentor, teacher, & idol is a great blessing. Especially to play opposites that want to kill each other. When in real life both adored each other. Pacino & Strasberg played Grandpa & Grandson in another movie And Justice for All.
I know Pacino is a pro but it must've been intimidating going toe to toe with your teacher. Both actors were incredible in this movie and happy 50th anniversary to one of the greatest sequels of all time.
@@jtaco4101 Roth is lying when he says that's not why. Roth knows Michael knows the reasons why Roth might have a vendetta against him. Roth does hold a vendetta but needs Michael to believe he doesn't, hence this "it's just business" speech.
This was the first time that I realized that Moe Green was Bugsy Siegel. In real life he was killed for getting in too deep in debt with the gambino family (Corleone) trying to create Las Vegas. Roth (Meyer Lansky) grew up with Moe Green
it was loosely based on him, but there is a memorial to Bugsy Siegel in the back of the Flamingo Hotel that was put up in the 90s that I am sure was inspired by this scene
@ actually when he borrowed the money to build Las Vegas he borrowed it from the commission which was made up of all five families in NYC so when he kept asking for more money it was their money too
Where was the danger?? I don’t know if at the time this movie came out cripple diseased old men with half gay accents came across as threatening, but they definitely don’t now all these years later.
The catch in his breathing should’ve served only to show just how weak and dissipated this man was by this time, how he served zero threat at all which is how I perceived that Michael wasn’t the least bit threatened by this bumbling imbecile.
@@MagnumConcilium In his scenes in this film, Lee Strasburg did one of the two things that movie actors are never supposed to do. He looked like he was acting. The other No-No - Don't Look into the Camera.
For those that didnt know. The gentleman sitting next to Roth is the same actor that played Junior on The Sopranos. He played Johnny Ola in Godfather 2.
I think Roth's intentions here was confirming that he was behind the hit but saying don't take it personally you did the same thing to my partner only he didn't survive
The intention was to never kill Frankie but make him believe Michael was behind it to make him flip. That’s why he didn’t testify in front of his brother
I believe Deniro got it. I might've given it to Cazale. 4 supporting actors got nominated from this movie, and none of them was Robert Duvall. Incredible.
lol imagine saying someone should have won an award whilst simultaneously admitting you don’t know who actually won it 😂😂 sorry but that’s a clown comment
One thing that hit home after seeing this film a second time is the way Roth manipulated Fredo and how it caused so much division between him and Michael
Oh yeah. And Roth knew Michael would pull out of the deal. No way Michael would bring over $2 million after that nifty little confrontation. Roth scotched a deal he knew was dead already. He gave the speech just to satisfy his dudgeon.
He kind of sold himself out here without any reason. Michael more or less probably knew at this point but he was more interested on the traitor. Roth and this speech wasn't gonna intimidate Michael.
I just think by this point Roth probably just didn’t give a rats ass and was more or less “ya you had moe Greene killed I had Frank killed we are even now”
@dillionoshea7535 I agree, I think Roth was more or less done with the charade and is now letting Michael know that it's on. I guess these conversation is a display of how the old school Mafia talks to each other without posing what is being said on the surface.
This scene provides the best answer yet why the other families didn’t retaliate after Michael ordered the purge at the end of the first film. They knew it was him, but they didn't want an admission that they knew in the form of an immediate frontal counterattack. Moreover, no one family wanted to go first in attacking the Corleone organization. They opted to watch and wait.

Ehhh I think it was a combination of them. Human Roth certainly was enraged at Michael for killing Greene and I’m sure that played a part in it. Killing someone in this life doesn’t always have to be for only one reason
The bitches were kept in the dark for their own good. Blabbering like idiots while getting their nails done would and getting wise guys killed or jailed was very common. So Mike was Mr Paul as far as she was concerned lol.
Roth may just as well have been playing poker, with all his cards lying face up!! Outsmarted, outmaneuvered and outgunned at every turn. Even the badly botched hit at Michael's home was a sign of gross incompetence on Roths part. Relying on an open window and perfect timing from long distance. From that point on, Roth was the sheep 🐑. Micheal the wolf 🐺. Michael Corleone was the most powerful character ever portrayed on film. Al Pacino's brilliant performance lays bare one glaring fact. No one is more cunning and ruthless than Don Michael Corleone. And woe to all those who oppose him.
But at the same time, Roth destroyed Michael by destroying his marriage with Kay with that assassination attempt in his house, Fredo betrayed his own brother Michael because of jealousy in which Michael had his own brother killed in which Michael regretted in Part III and in Part III his daughter was killed. So Michael won but Roth severely damaged him.
@@jasonpalacios2705Kay was very weak, it didn’t have much to do with ‘destroying’ Michael’s marriage. She had no business being his wife in the first place.
Forealz. Kay is insufferable annoying whiny hypocrite. If Appolonia didn't die she would have made a great wife gun moll advisor. She knew what Michael was & supported & truly loved him. An she understood the Sicilian mob culture. An I always believed Appolonia was his one true love. With Kay it was a build up love of comfort. Appolonia was love at first sight. The way they both looked at each other when they first met.
I agree with you on that. Also when I saw the speech that Massive Genius said on The Sopranos to Tony & Hesh it was bonechilling. Also while the mafia had interests in Record Labels, not to mention in Nightclubs in Harlem, it was Jewish Folks who wrote some of the original R & B Songs and Phil & Leonard Chess of Chess Records I think had Jewish as well as Polish Blood.
Michael was the one to give the approval for Moe Green's hit. Roth knows it was Michael. Roth is basically saying "I didn't confront you when you shot my friend. Don't confront me about shooting your friend."
Johnny Ola is sitting quietly by himself during this exchange, considering whether young Michael Corleone might just have the makings of a varsity athlete…
They say those who can't do, teach. This is not true of Lee Strasburg. I believe his performance in this particular scene has never been surpassed by any other actor, not even Brando. Pacino almost looks intimidated.
Roth played this well. He went to a meeting that day, celebrated his 67th birthday, told Michael off about what he saw, then all of a sudden, he’s dying and needs to be put on oxygen and beforehand tells Michael the story about Moe Greene. Afterwards, he played the game well. Told Fredo to dispatch some military personnel to kill Michael’s bodyguard at the right time when he tries to kill a supposedly frail Roth on oxygen. Then Roth flees, Cuba’s being taken over, Michael has to testify at committee meetings engineered by Roth. Michael wins, but Roth is still free, smug, and thinks he’s won. But Michael dispatches Rocco. The rest is history!
It's not really *that* cunning though is it? Surely mentioning Moe Greene at all here is *spectacularly stupid* by Roth and can only be explained as his emotions getting the better of him?

Roth got into the life after being intriduced to Don Corleone. He was very close to Mo Green. All is revealed in the book.
uppercut =dwn bird
I'll take Hyman Roth and Moe Greene over 1000 Corleones.
You're showing a scene twice??????
It's not really *that* cunning though is it? Surely mentioning Moe Greene at all here is *spectacularly stupid* by Roth and can only be explained as his emotions getting the better of him?
This is antisemitic.
In the whole movie hyman roth is the only one that puts michael corleona in the corner
Meyer lansky talking about bugsy siegal lol
