The way that Carlo, the abusive husband, was portrayed to be running for his life as soon as he saw Sonny was pretty spot on. Abusive spouses, bullies, always run when confronted by someone bigger than themselves. Probably why they picked on whom they perceived as weaker than they are.
@@Karynthian If you're saying he was untouchable because Sonny was way stronger than him, I'd agree with you. If you meant by his social status as a high ranking member of the Corleone family, I don't. Though Connie wasn't technically part of the mafia family (that is, working for them), she was still Vito's daughter. Yet he still dared to hurt her on daily basis actually (if you take a look at the novel). Connie in the novel is a bit different from the movie because she did complained about Carlo to her father but her father didn't do anything (because he didn't like them gotten married in the first place). Vito is also the one who actually restrained Sonny to do anything when he wanted to beat up Carlo. It was only after this scene that Sonny had the chance to beat Carlo up, so Connie getting abused was actually not news to the Corleones. Another point is that Sonny was killed later by Carlo's machinations. Of course, he didn't do it personally (as he is a coward) but he still had a hand in Sonny's death, even if by the bullets of another family. If he had a gun on the day that Sonny beat him up, things could turn up very differently, either by his or Sonny's death
Of course. He’s a big hothead and he wasn’t always the nicest to his siblings, especially Michael but he would have fought and defended them all and he clearly loved them.
@@walqqr1I think human nature is limited in that regard, people care more about the immediate family, you could be a really sympathetic person and really go out of your way to defend others, but most if not all will feel more intensely for their immediate family, if the relationship is still within that range, because sometimes I hear that even immediate families can lose that care for each other.
My sister tells a story about how a kid at the playground knocked her over and appeared out of nowhere in a full sprint and shoved him to the ground and got in his face. He popped up and ran off and I turned to her to make sure she was okay. Never doubt a brother’s rage if his sister is threatened or hurt. I don’t remember it happening at all so I’m guess I had a rage blackout?

Certainly true of non mafia princesses . In this case she was terrified because she knew Sonny was going to kill him. Her begging is the only reason Carlo lived.
maybe you should have told your brother. better to not live in fear than to constantly live as if tomorrow will be your last. id have ended him if he did this to my sister. plain and simple.
Despite his hot temper and reckless behaviors, Sonny is true to his family. He loves each single one of them and tries his best to protect them all. From chasing the police away from his sister's wedding to hopping into a car right after hearing that Connie is assaulted by her abusive husband. He's such a protective big brother. I personally love the way he tells his right hand man to make sure the gun is securely implant for his younger brother, Michael because he doesn't want his younger bro to come out with a stick. And, I truly believe that if he could do it himself, he would do. He'd rather take the fall himself.
I agree with much of what you said, but Sonny was not true to his wife. Everyone knew he was fooling around with Lucy Mancini. Watch Connie's wedding scene again, and pay attention to Sonny's wife. She went from entertaining her girlfriends with hints about Sonny's size to humiliation when she realized he was off with Lucy again. Vito then admonished him for playing this comedy instead of investing time with his family. Also, I'm not sure Sonny said "a stick in his hand." I think this was cleaned up from some wording that sounded similar.
He was also the one who brought Tom into the family when he was just a homeless kid during the depression. The guy had a temper because he's just all heart, a really great character.
This scene had a darkness to it when you realize Carlo was purposely beating Connie to trap Sonny. It’s implied Sonny was not ok with how Carlo betrayed him by beating Connie, especially since Sonny felt guilty for it since he introduced Connie to him. So Carlo used that to lure Sonny into a trap & then kill him. Carlo was trying to move up the ladder in the family but Michael stopped him by having him executed
@madboy1105 yes. He had his girlfriend call Connie, knowing she'd call Sonny and that Sonny would have to use that particular tollbooth. More importantly from Michael's POV, he sold out the family to avenge a slight and by facilitating Sonny's death, forced Michael into the role of his father's successor, something he tried desperately to avoid. But Carlo was too stupid to see it was obvious he set Sonny up.
Sonny: "What am I gonna do, make that baby an orphan before he was born?" Michael: "I wouldn't make my sister a widow" Reality: That baby would have grown up with a shitty father and they did what they thought was best to protect their sister and their nephew.
1:59 That look Sonny gives and the way he says that line unconsciously seems to say “you’re not worth it.” Sonny’s not only a good brother, but a compassionate guy.
He is actually quite warm-hearted, more noticeable in the book, where he has his family take in the young Tom Hagen after he finds him on the street, orphaned and going blind.
My big bro almost killed a monster I was engaged with. I was not telling my family the abuse, until one time my siblings went to surprise visit me and my brother caught him strangling me. I never saw my brother that mad, he took a knife in our kitchen after beating that guy up. My family don't live far, so my sister asked my parents to come. It was only my mother who got to calm my brother or else he would have killed that monster. I'm just glad that hell was all behind me. I hope any of you out there going through DV or abuse, reach out for help. Bottling it and hiding it would kill you. I know it's not easy, but please do try. I now work in the psychology field, and if there's any of you out there who needs help...do let me know. It doesn't matter which country you are in, as I've done a lot of work globally and have connections in the field to help you out.❤️
Your big brother is solid gold, truly precious. Good fathers and brothers will always instictively protect their family, especially the female ones. Be it daughter, wife, mother, or sister. Glad you left that monster and have a wonderful job now. Wish you all the best ✨
Hugs to you sister. Your brother is a saint amongst men. Give him a hug the next time you see him, and tell him how lucky you are to have him in your corner when the chips are down.
Wow. That sucks that happened to you. My dad was a good dad and mom. Not perfect. kind of an asshole at very little times. . he was ignored by his parents despite being multiple star. it was a different day. he did the best he knew how. no complaints. all the best, Mike in Princeton
1:16 Sonnys punches pushed so much force they bent the air around them and he never needed to bruise knuckles as the pure force of the air did the work.. Bad ass!
I love how Sonny's rage and violent intent has taken over him so much to where he just gets creative in this beat down that he goes for biting his hand and then back to roughing him up. Fucking savage.
we always talk about what a hothead sonny is - and rightly so! - but something i never see mentioned is how after he bites his hand hes able to fully "calm" himself down to comfort and reassure his sister. that couldnt have been easy for someone with his temper, to even appear as calm when hes so enraged. just goes to show how much he loves his family
Years ago I read the novel the Godfather and we get more insight into Carlo Rizzi. Carlo's marriage to connie was nothing more to him than an ambitious business move to have access to Vito and a bigger and better seat Corleone table. He was a Northern Italian, and with his blond hair and blue eyes naturally believed he was better than his Southern Italian wife and the entire Corleone family. It was heavily hinted in the books the hidden bias and colourism between northern Italy regarding southern Italians, who are looked down on with their darker skin and darker hair. When those gates were not instantly opened to him he was resentful and turned his frustrations on his wife. This topic was also mentioned in the 'sopranos' regarding Meadow when a family member mentioned they were shocked at how how 'dark skinned' she was when she was born, considering Carmela had blond hair and blue eyes.
The rivalries are real. Id say ask my parents but theyre deceased. 😂 The old man always used to needle my mother. "Bass Italia, Terrone, or Napoli Dobblie" He definitely was a "polentone" 😂 Loved his polenta. They were was 2nd generation American, his lineage coming from Piacenzia, and hers from Napoli. Me and my older brother got the blond hair and hazel eyes, and my oldest and youngest brother got the brown hair, brown eyes, and olive skin. Nice balance.
Its actually quite sad that having lighter features is looked at as more appealing in the world. IIRC, even in Asian cultures its looked at as being exotic. Some idols in S Korea even bleach their skin and try to be skinny as possible.
@NRV0 I beg to differ it could go either way depending on the culture, influence, or mindset. Tall dark and handsome and the showing of a healthy colorful tan is desired on one hand, then amongst the affluent pastey porcelain alabaster white is desired. Then you have political culture. Pop culture. Racial/tribal culture/time frame, etc. A century and a half ago. Sun tanning was frowned upon by most of American and European cultures. The farmers tan was considered a trait of the peasants. Now it's considered healthy, active and on holiday or vacation. Despite having disease from his injuries as a contributing factor. I think Michael Jackson cosmetically bleached his skin in addition and in some form denied his black roots despite being very cute as a kid and handsome as an adolescence.
That is exactly how you deal with an abusive man. Beat the heck out of him so the bully learns a lesson. What a coward. Sonny was so brave and manly. A real tragedy he died.
If Sonny knew it was all a trap, he might as well have followed Mike Emmerhout's way and give that pregnant woman-beater the "No more half measures" treatment.
For some reason a lot of people in the comments are not acknowledging that Carlo was Sonny's best friend, and Sonny is the one who set him up with his sister.
@@ab9040 I don’t think Sonny knew Carlo was going to be abusive. Sure, he could’ve seen his hot headed nature, but Sonny himself is hot headed and we never seen him beat or abuse his wife, so he might’ve not thought of it given how short sighted he is. And you can see that Sonny has guilt over it, given how fast he was to step up for Connie in this scene and the dinner table scene.
@@williamstriumph9463 no he died because the families were at war. Apollonia didn't hurt a fly but got murdered and so did Mary. They're a family of goons. Some of them die unnatural deaths. Sonny is a brother every girl wants. He's very emotional, has never hit any woman in the entire film and obeys his father always. He's very likable.
I feel like Mike died on the inside once he joined the mob, but he also still cared about his family. He clearly cared about his dad and older brothers even after watching his wife in Italy die.
People will point to Mike having Fredo killed as being cold, without mercy and not very family oriented but Fredo's reckless actions almost cost Michael his OWN wife and kids, and I'm sure part of the calculation in getting rid of Fredo was what kind of liability was he capable of being in the future (I don't believe it was ALL about spiteful revenge).
I just loved how Sonny's fist was nowhere near Carlo's face when he was supposed to be hitting him I was always like did the editors really not catch that or were they like F**K it LOL 🤣 😂
I guess he had to go a little bit easy on him after Caan allegedly broke two of Russo’s ribs and cracked his elbow tossing him over the fence & beating him with the trash can! In Paramount's "The Offer" drama series on the making of The Godfather, Al Ruddy allegedly encouraged, Caan to go method acting on him after Russo actually hit Talia Shire filming the scene that triggers this beating.
@@oobenoob Believe it or not violence do exist, lucky for my sister she has a brother to defend her. I beat him, quote this, then proceeded to sue him for other thing he did.
@@archi4226You didn’t protect her though. Protecting her would be calling the cops and delivering justice, not serving your own sense of pride and manhood after the fact. The beating already took place, what you did wasn’t protection, it was vengeance.
@@williamstriumph9463 Are you stupid or what? I wasn't talking about Sonny's wife, I was talking about his SISTER and how every girl wishes she had a BROTHER to protect her like Sonny.
I love this part.. my dad re-enacts this scene all the time! He gets me dying laughing.. He acts just like sunny here. He does the scene where Sunny first walks in and sees his sisters face!! Omg I need to video tape him it’s to damn funny!! So I can’t watch this without thinking of him now hahaha!! We are big Godfather Fans !!
I never had a brother, or even a sister who was that fiercely protective. Always wonder how that might have changed my outlook on life growing up. That's the thing, even a Mafia family - lots of honest love and loyalty there despite all the rest.
In the book, Connie marries Carlo against Vito's wishes. He does not like or trust Carlo. The first time Carlo beats her, she runs home to whine to her parents. As a way of saying "I told you so" and also because Vito and his wife were firmly opposed to interfering in a marriage, Vito told Connie to go home and learn to be a good wife, so that Carlo wouldn't beat her.
Not really. If he fought back, Sonny might've realized that Carlo doesn't exclusively hit women and thought of him as a hothead who can't control his anger rather than a coward who fights against those who are weaker than him. Carlo is a grade A bitch.
James Caan and Talia Shire remained lifelong friends after this film, of course. In a CBS interview she said, with Caan seated there next to her, laughing, "You're still my brother.." She told another great story about the scene previously, where Carlo is getting ready to go out, and Connie has cooked dinner for him. They get into a fight and she starts pulling the crockery off the shelves, and breaking it. Talia Shire said, "I was running around barefoot, not all that stuff broke the way it was supposed to, so I was crunching on broken glass.." Wonderful brave lady to do that.. RIP James Caan...
Can you imagine what the choreography for that scene must have involved. I would have forgotten what to use next after the first few punches. You can tell that Sonny was truly knackered as he delivered his last line. Bravo to all involved.
Talia was perfect as the sister in this role, they were all fanatically cast, but James Caan was made to play the role of Sonny. I hated we had to see him killed, after he did this for his little sister. He needed more onscreen time in the movie, he has such heart. I don’t think he really wanted be in the family as the one that takes control for his father but it is because of the love of his family and for the love and devotion and respect of his father. He rescued his best friend Tom Hagen off the street blind and sick, and they become brothers, and I always hated the godfather didn’t adopt him, but they explain why in the book. He was trying to be respectful. And it really didn’t matter because he treated him just as he was his beloved son and Tom became his consigliere which is quite the honor when they were always Italian and the godfather makes the exception, for Tom as if he were his own blood son. Godfather could cry in front of Tom at the funeral home because he knew Tom adored Sonny as much as he did, and that he was the only person besides the God father that is grieving as bad as he is. Except for the mother and Tom understands the family too. He knows Toms grief is as bad as his own, and so they become even more bonded. When he is crying he says “look what they did to my boy” It’s so sad. Such a powerful vulnerable scene that Marlon deserved the Oscar just for his incredible ability to play such emotion. And vulnerability. You wish the godfather and the family could have avoided the curse of organized crime and done something legitimate and it also makes you see that why the godfather does not really want this life for his family. He knows there is a huge cost to be in that life but he tries to do things like stay out of the drug trade because it hurts kids and teens. He wants them to go legitimate. Tom stays faithful to the godfather and the family even after Sonny dies. He knows this is the only family that cared for him and saved him, but for Sonny’s huge heart, he might have died, or been blind and a street urchin. He instead gets to go to law school and make something of himself. I doubt the godfather would have ever expected him to do what he does. But after Sonny rescues him, it’s like Tom’s fate is set. He will never leave Sonny’s father. He will always be more loyal. Even more loyal than the weak son. I’m sure the godfather wished he were his real son. He was proud of Tom and the loyalty to the family and love for them all. Sonny, like I said had a big heart and it showed with his sister and his best friend he rescues off the street. His character was more than just some one dimensional tough guy. It is truly sad, because if they had been in a legitimate business they could have all been happy. It’s too bad they couldn’t have done a story about a Italian family that maybe has temptations but overcomes that and actually avoids the bad guys and being in business with them and shows their toughness and honor by staying out of the life style. It’s truly a tragic story, about a man who sees some injustice like an old woman being unfairly pushed out of her apartment so he makes sure she isn’t thrown out and pays her rent, and if he hadn’t been Italian and poor at that time, in that era, he could have been successful, without a life of crimes, because he was smart and he has a heart, but he is facing prejudice that was very very hard for Italians that were especially new to the country, that where they get the slur WOP from, all it’s meant was when you came over you didn’t have papers so they would stamp WOP (without papers) on your papers as you came through Ellis island. They did that for Germans and other ethnicities too. It just for some reason seemed to hang on to Italians more than others to insult them. Although they did say it to others. I would have laughed and said you didn’t have papers either! Because most immigrants didn’t.
@ thanks, I have major nerve damage so I just tried to correct my typos that I saw. I am happy you could understand it. It’s either typos or psychopathic autocorrect who seems to want me to get a no Knock from the FBI, lol
Why is he holding that bar when he's getting his ass pounded. Sonny didn't tie him up against the bar. What's so funny was when Sonny bit his hand to free the bar. That part makes no sense.
In real life if I was the daughter of a big crime boss I would have wacked him myself. No piece of shit would lay hands on me a second time. That’s why I prefer the soprano version of this, where Tony’s sister wacks the abuser herself right after the first slap. So the first slap was the last slap 😃That would have been me. Any man who thinks that he can put his hands on me is dead, there and then. The POS should have been wacked right there and then. Sonny not killing him, and instead just beating him up, later literally cost him his life.
Ill never forget watching this as a teenager with my dad and asking “why is he holding onto the post while being beaten?” And my dad said “because he knows staying in public will increase his chances of not being killed” I knew my dad grew up poor but that stuck with me for life
Something weird to appreciate, there's no typical Hollywood fight stuff. When someone gets beat up in real life, it tends to look more like this than what most movies show.
@@williamstriumph9463 That's exactly it, everyone is a martial artist in tv and movies. There are nameable moves with defenses to them, but in real life people just hurt the other person any way they can.

He was also the one who brought Tom into the family when he was just a homeless kid during the depression. The guy had a temper because he's just all heart, a really great character.
Of course, you know that Sonny didn't actually say "stick."
This scene had a darkness to it when you realize Carlo was purposely beating Connie to trap Sonny. It’s implied Sonny was not ok with how Carlo betrayed him by beating Connie, especially since Sonny felt guilty for it since he introduced Connie to him. So Carlo used that to lure Sonny into a trap & then kill him. Carlo was trying to move up the ladder in the family but Michael stopped him by having him executed
wasnt it because of this carlo made a deal to kill sonny?
@madboy1105 yes. He had his girlfriend call Connie, knowing she'd call Sonny and that Sonny would have to use that particular tollbooth. More importantly from Michael's POV, he sold out the family to avenge a slight and by facilitating Sonny's death, forced Michael into the role of his father's successor, something he tried desperately to avoid. But Carlo was too stupid to see it was obvious he set Sonny up.
Holy shit thats brilliant
Carlo was never going to move up further in the family. I don’t think Michael trusted him, especially after he knew he was abusing Connie.
It wasn’t a trap until the very last time.
Sonny: "What am I gonna do, make that baby an orphan before he was born?"
Michael: "I wouldn't make my sister a widow"
Reality: That baby would have grown up with a shitty father and they did what they thought was best to protect their sister and their nephew.
What pisses me off is why she didn’t leave her abusive husband.
@@amoodyb Considering their culture, the time period, and their religion, divorce was likely off the table.

@@flockinify I mean I guess that makes sense? But still. It irritates me. I would’ve still left the guy.

@@RahulPatel-og2ke True true, you’re right, different times
1:59 That look Sonny gives and the way he says that line unconsciously seems to say “you’re not worth it.”
Sonny’s not only a good brother, but a compassionate guy.
He is actually quite warm-hearted, more noticeable in the book, where he has his family take in the young Tom Hagen after he finds him on the street, orphaned and going blind.
My big bro almost killed a monster I was engaged with. I was not telling my family the abuse, until one time my siblings went to surprise visit me and my brother caught him strangling me. I never saw my brother that mad, he took a knife in our kitchen after beating that guy up. My family don't live far, so my sister asked my parents to come. It was only my mother who got to calm my brother or else he would have killed that monster. I'm just glad that hell was all behind me. I hope any of you out there going through DV or abuse, reach out for help. Bottling it and hiding it would kill you. I know it's not easy, but please do try. I now work in the psychology field, and if there's any of you out there who needs help...do let me know. It doesn't matter which country you are in, as I've done a lot of work globally and have connections in the field to help you out.❤️
Your big brother is solid gold, truly precious. Good fathers and brothers will always instictively protect their family, especially the female ones. Be it daughter, wife, mother, or sister. Glad you left that monster and have a wonderful job now. Wish you all the best ✨
Hugs to you sister. Your brother is a saint amongst men. Give him a hug the next time you see him, and tell him how lucky you are to have him in your corner when the chips are down.
Wow. That sucks that happened to you. My dad was a good dad and mom. Not perfect. kind of an asshole at very little times. . he was ignored by his parents despite being multiple star. it was a different day. he did the best he knew how. no complaints. all the best, Mike in Princeton
You're a jewel. I hope life returns to you all the goodness that you're putting out into the world.

When Sonny saw her face and bit his fist, it was on.
Yeah...you better believe it. On...like the Donkey Kong!
1:16 Sonnys punches pushed so much force they bent the air around them and he never needed to bruise knuckles as the pure force of the air did the work.. Bad ass!
I love how Sonny's rage and violent intent has taken over him so much to where he just gets creative in this beat down that he goes for biting his hand and then back to roughing him up. Fucking savage.
My folks and I always thought it was comedy gold! 😂 That's morbid Italian humor for ya!
Legend has it that Carlo is STILL laying there next to that fire hydrant, groaning in pain.
Nope, Carlo was killed by Clemenza, everyone knows that so there’s no legend

@@MrPhife333 I know trash collection can be slow in New York but . . . Really? The stink must be overwhelming!
we always talk about what a hothead sonny is - and rightly so! - but something i never see mentioned is how after he bites his hand hes able to fully "calm" himself down to comfort and reassure his sister. that couldnt have been easy for someone with his temper, to even appear as calm when hes so enraged. just goes to show how much he loves his family
The trash can beat down is legendary!
I love how tough guy Carlo runs away from Sonny like a little b**ch.😂.
abusers usually do
Lol u not getting away from the beat down
Its pathetic and disgusting
Probably felt so strong beating down a pregnant woman but runs like a coward when someone his size comes at him
Near every scene in this movie is a classic!
Film has flaws
Godfather was pure genius.
The duality of man.
Years ago I read the novel the Godfather and we get more insight into Carlo Rizzi. Carlo's marriage to connie was nothing more to him than an ambitious business move to have access to Vito and a bigger and better seat Corleone table. He was a Northern Italian, and with his blond hair and blue eyes naturally believed he was better than his Southern Italian wife and the entire Corleone family. It was heavily hinted in the books the hidden bias and colourism between northern Italy regarding southern Italians, who are looked down on with their darker skin and darker hair. When those gates were not instantly opened to him he was resentful and turned his frustrations on his wife.
This topic was also mentioned in the 'sopranos' regarding Meadow when a family member mentioned they were shocked at how how 'dark skinned' she was when she was born, considering Carmela had blond hair and blue eyes.
Very true until today..and look also at the side story of Johnny Fontane and his arc.
The rivalries are real. Id say ask my parents but theyre deceased. 😂 The old man always used to needle my mother. "Bass Italia, Terrone, or Napoli Dobblie" He definitely was a "polentone" 😂 Loved his polenta.
They were was 2nd generation American, his lineage coming from Piacenzia, and hers from Napoli. Me and my older brother got the blond hair and hazel eyes, and my oldest and youngest brother got the brown hair, brown eyes, and olive skin. Nice balance.
Its actually quite sad that having lighter features is looked at as more appealing in the world. IIRC, even in Asian cultures its looked at as being exotic. Some idols in S Korea even bleach their skin and try to be skinny as possible.
@NRV0 I beg to differ it could go either way depending on the culture, influence, or mindset. Tall dark and handsome and the showing of a healthy colorful tan is desired on one hand, then amongst the affluent pastey porcelain alabaster white is desired. Then you have political culture. Pop culture. Racial/tribal culture/time frame, etc. A century and a half ago. Sun tanning was frowned upon by most of American and European cultures. The farmers tan was considered a trait of the peasants. Now it's considered healthy, active and on holiday or vacation. Despite having disease from his injuries as a contributing factor. I think Michael Jackson cosmetically bleached his skin in addition and in some form denied his black roots despite being very cute as a kid and handsome as an adolescence.
@@bobbyscalchi4013 take it up with Mario Puzzo
Sonny is great here, doesn’t lose it at first, stays calm and comforts his sister, after that does what needs to be done
This is really good acting. He was so pissed he bit his hand like an enraged Pitbull. I would be that angry if someone abused my sister.

That is exactly how you deal with an abusive man. Beat the heck out of him so the bully learns a lesson. What a coward. Sonny was so brave and manly. A real tragedy he died.
Abusive man no real man does the bs he does to his sis period
If Sonny knew it was all a trap, he might as well have followed Mike Emmerhout's way and give that pregnant woman-beater the "No more half measures" treatment.
Sonny was a hot headed mobster. Not really a tragedy.
For some reason a lot of people in the comments are not acknowledging that Carlo was Sonny's best friend, and Sonny is the one who set him up with his sister.
@@ab9040 I don’t think Sonny knew Carlo was going to be abusive. Sure, he could’ve seen his hot headed nature, but Sonny himself is hot headed and we never seen him beat or abuse his wife, so he might’ve not thought of it given how short sighted he is. And you can see that Sonny has guilt over it, given how fast he was to step up for Connie in this scene and the dinner table scene.
I like the way he hit him on the eyes to give him a black eye like his sister! These kind of brothers are rare. 😊
It cost Sonny his life in the end.... Just keep that in mind
@@williamstriumph9463 no he died because the families were at war. Apollonia didn't hurt a fly but got murdered and so did Mary. They're a family of goons. Some of them die unnatural deaths.
Sonny is a brother every girl wants. He's very emotional, has never hit any woman in the entire film and obeys his father always. He's very likable.
Not in Italian families they aren't....
0:15 till this day still one of the most authentic reactions to rage😂😂 it still gets me and i aint seen this for years
Sonny's so kind and devoted to his family.
He'd never hurt his own. He got that from the Don.
Mike was cold.
I feel like Mike died on the inside once he joined the mob, but he also still cared about his family. He clearly cared about his dad and older brothers even after watching his wife in Italy die.
People will point to Mike having Fredo killed as being cold, without mercy and not very family oriented but Fredo's reckless actions almost cost Michael his OWN wife and kids, and I'm sure part of the calculation in getting rid of Fredo was what kind of liability was he capable of being in the future (I don't believe it was ALL about spiteful revenge).
I think Mike is a psychopath.
@@travisreed1730 Maybe. No-one seems to mention the fact of Mike going through the war and the effect it might have had on his personality ie. PTSD.
I have a lot of respect for Sonny, he cares for his sister and the prick that hurt her deserved the ass kicking he got!
Same. Sonny's was the saddest de4th in the movie for me.
I just loved how Sonny's fist was nowhere near Carlo's face when he was supposed to be hitting him I was always like did the editors really not catch that or were they like F**K it LOL 🤣 😂
I guess he had to go a little bit easy on him after Caan allegedly broke two of Russo’s ribs and cracked his elbow tossing him over the fence & beating him with the trash can! In Paramount's "The Offer" drama series on the making of The Godfather, Al Ruddy allegedly encouraged, Caan to go method acting on him after Russo actually hit Talia Shire filming the scene that triggers this beating.
I saw that too😂

Every woman needs a brother like that. Or an uncle, a nephew, a cousin. Men, grow some balls.

Carlo won the war with Sonny, but lost the war with Michael....
Barzini paid him to set up Sonny. No war there.
@davidbarker7938 Wrong....Sonny beat up Carlo.....Then Carlo set up Sonny.....
Vito's sons are wonderful arguments against primogeniture. The first son was too aggressive, the second too passive. Michael was just right.

Sonny was truly a "Man's Man". Every girl wishes she had an older brother like Sonny Corleone.
Yes, but sonny didn't have a wife that was too crazy about him. Problem is many women want a "bear" for protection, but not as a lover.

I love how in Sonny’s mind this is his version of “not doing anything”.
You don't wanna hear him say "I gotta do something about this"
I love this part.. my dad re-enacts this scene all the time! He gets me dying laughing.. He acts just like sunny here. He does the scene where Sunny first walks in and sees his sisters face!!

One of the greatest scenes from The God Father! Rip James Caan!🙏🏼
James Caan was SUCH an underrated actor. ❤ LOVE him! R.I.P. 🙏🏿 🕊️
WOW, the punch at 1:16 missed by a foot...When you can miss and the breeze knocks somebody down, that's POWER!
I was really hoping he was gonna say, “ Drag his ass outta the water, the kids gotta play.”
That punch in the air was hilarious ,lol
James can an outstanding actor,rest legend
I never had a brother, or even a sister who was that fiercely protective. Always wonder how that might have changed my outlook on life growing up. That's the thing, even a Mafia family - lots of honest love and loyalty there despite all the rest.
Carlo has some balls abusing the daughter of a mafia boss
no brains either
He was doing a lot of a coke at the time...
In the book, Connie marries Carlo against Vito's wishes. He does not like or trust Carlo.
The first time Carlo beats her, she runs home to whine to her parents. As a way of saying "I told you so" and also because Vito and his wife were firmly opposed to interfering in a marriage, Vito told Connie to go home and learn to be a good wife, so that Carlo wouldn't beat her.
1:16 Ah yes, that air punch must've hurt bad
He was asking for a beating wearing that orange suit.
At least it wasn’t a Purple Suit……
I'd only wear that on Halloween.
Oranges (both the color and the fruit) are quite symbolically used by Coppola in "The Godfather." No accident he's wearing this gaudy suit.
The only thing that saved him is that he didint fight back
Not really. If he fought back, Sonny might've realized that Carlo doesn't exclusively hit women and thought of him as a hothead who can't control his anger rather than a coward who fights against those who are weaker than him. Carlo is a grade A bitch.
Sonny was all for the family. The best charactet. I cried when they killed him.
The most heartbreaking part is when Connie says it was her fault
That was a proper Sicilian ass wooping 😅😅😅, Sonny even hit him with the trash can 😅😅😅
That was the beatdown of a lifetime, I don't think I've seen a better more raw, and real whooping like that in all of cinema.
Sonny is the older brother we all needed in High School...
I watched this movie over and over again. It's a great movie .
Hollywood says it's the best movie ever made.
As a friend of mine once said, "That was a real New York City ass kicking"!
The bat throw was perfectly executed
James Caan and Talia Shire remained lifelong friends after this film, of course. In a CBS interview she said, with Caan seated there next to her, laughing, "You're still my brother.." She told another great story about the scene previously, where Carlo is getting ready to go out, and Connie has cooked dinner for him. They get into a fight and she starts pulling the crockery off the shelves, and breaking it. Talia Shire said, "I was running around barefoot, not all that stuff broke the way it was supposed to, so I was crunching on broken glass.." Wonderful brave lady to do that.. RIP James Caan...
Loved this scene when Sonny beat the living Hell out of Carlo. Too bad Sonny met his fate later on in the film.
What is wrong with you
@@Ken-iu2zpNothing.

Michael putting Carlo down at the end over Sonny is still the most satisfying end to a movie ever.
when a brother loves his sister. I think my brother act the same way❤
0:57 🎶🎵”Ladies and Gents, this is the moment you’ve waited for.” 🎶🎵
1:16 Sonny punched so hard, the air pressure behind the force was enough to rock him 😊
That beating was a WARNING.
Can you imagine what the choreography for that scene must have involved. I would have forgotten what to use next after the first few punches. You can tell that Sonny was truly knackered as he delivered his last line. Bravo to all involved.
Talia was perfect as the sister in this role, they were all fanatically cast, but James Caan was made to play the role of Sonny. I hated we had to see him killed, after he did this for his little sister. He needed more onscreen time in the movie, he has such heart. I don’t think he really wanted be in the family as the one that takes control for his father but it is because of the love of his family and for the love and devotion and respect of his father.
He rescued his best friend Tom Hagen off the street blind and sick, and they become brothers, and I always hated the godfather didn’t adopt him, but they explain why in the book. He was trying to be respectful. And it really didn’t matter because he treated him just as he was his beloved son and Tom became his consigliere which is quite the honor when they were always Italian and the godfather makes the exception, for Tom as if he were his own blood son. Godfather could cry in front of Tom at the funeral home because he knew Tom adored Sonny as much as he did, and that he was the only person besides the God father that is grieving as bad as he is. Except for the mother and Tom understands the family too.
He knows Toms grief is as bad as his own, and so they become even more bonded. When he is crying he says “look what they did to my boy” It’s so sad. Such a powerful vulnerable scene that Marlon deserved the Oscar just for his incredible ability to play such emotion. And vulnerability. You wish the godfather and the family could have avoided the curse of organized crime and done something legitimate and it also makes you see that why the godfather does not really want this life for his family. He knows there is a huge cost to be in that life but he tries to do things like stay out of the drug trade because it hurts kids and teens. He wants them to go legitimate.
Tom stays faithful to the godfather and the family even after Sonny dies. He knows this is the only family that cared for him and saved him, but for Sonny’s huge heart, he might have died, or been blind and a street urchin. He instead gets to go to law school and make something of himself. I doubt the godfather would have ever expected him to do what he does. But after Sonny rescues him, it’s like Tom’s fate is set. He will never leave Sonny’s father. He will always be more loyal. Even more loyal than the weak son. I’m sure the godfather wished he were his real son. He was proud of Tom and the loyalty to the family and love for them all.
Sonny, like I said had a big heart and it showed with his sister and his best friend he rescues off the street. His character was more than just some one dimensional tough guy. It is truly sad, because if they had been in a legitimate business they could have all been happy. It’s too bad they couldn’t have done a story about a Italian family that maybe has temptations but overcomes that and actually avoids the bad guys and being in business with them and shows their toughness and honor by staying out of the life style.
It’s truly a tragic story, about a man who sees some injustice like an old woman being unfairly pushed out of her apartment so he makes sure she isn’t thrown out and pays her rent, and if he hadn’t been Italian and poor at that time, in that era, he could have been successful, without a life of crimes, because he was smart and he has a heart, but he is facing prejudice that was very very hard for Italians that were especially new to the country, that where they get the slur WOP from, all it’s meant was when you came over you didn’t have papers so they would stamp WOP (without papers) on your papers as you came through Ellis island. They did that for Germans and other ethnicities too. It just for some reason seemed to hang on to Italians more than others to insult them. Although they did say it to others. I would have laughed and said you didn’t have papers either! Because most immigrants didn’t.
Well said.🎉

@kfki He thought he was going to get dragged into the trunk of a car to get whacked
@@wilcee238 this make sense
Actually they killed him at the end of the movie.
In real life if I was the daughter of a big crime boss I would have wacked him myself. No piece of shit would lay hands on me a second time. That’s why I prefer the soprano version of this, where Tony’s sister wacks the abuser herself right after the first slap. So the first slap was the last slap 😃That would have been me. Any man who thinks that he can put his hands on me is dead, there and then. The POS should have been wacked right there and then. Sonny not killing him, and instead just beating him up, later literally cost him his life.
Now… that’s how it’s done when someone hurts the family
Ill never forget watching this as a teenager with my dad and asking “why is he holding onto the post while being beaten?” And my dad said “because he knows staying in public will increase his chances of not being killed” I knew my dad grew up poor but that stuck with me for life
That's true. He could have pulled him into the car.
