CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Kay (Diane Keaton) informs Michael (Al Pacino) that her miscarriage was, in fact, an abortion.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Francis Ford Coppola's legendary continuation and sequel to his landmark 1972 film, The Godfather, parallels the young Vito Corleone's rise with his son Michael's spiritual fall, deepening The Godfather's depiction of the dark side of the American dream. In the early 1900s, the child Vito flees his Sicilian village for America after the local Mafia kills his family. Vito (Robert De Niro) struggles to make a living, legally or illegally, for his wife and growing brood in Little Italy, killing the local Black Hand Fanucci (Gastone Moschin) after he demands his customary cut of the tyro's business. With Fanucci gone, Vito's communal stature grows, but it is his family (past and present) who matters most to him -- a familial legacy then upended by Michael's (Al Pacino) business expansion in the 1950s. Now based in Lake Tahoe, Michael conspires to make inroads in Las Vegas and Havana pleasure industries by any means necessary. As he realizes that allies like Hyman Roth (Lee Strasberg) are trying to kill him, the increasingly paranoid Michael also discovers that his ambition has crippled his marriage to Kay (Diane Keaton) and turned his brother, Fredo (John Cazale), against him. Barely escaping a federal indictment, Michael turns his attention to dealing with his enemies, completing his own corruption.

Al Pacino not winning the Oscar for this performance is the biggest mistake the academy has ever made. Period.
The Academy is corporate suits run by Obama.
Venting Show lol hate to break it to you but the Academy has been around long before Obama was a glint in his parents eye!!
loganvana Pacino Nicholson and Hoffman were all nominated the vote obviously got split
Yeah but Pacino in GF part 2 is top 5 acting performances of all,tome .
***** failed to spot an obvious troll ;)
The intensity in his eyes... Wow.
And his lips trembling in anger..
he so good actor
I cannot this of any actor other than Al Pacino who could have pulled this off with such perfection. I literelly tremble everytime I see this. His rage is so real.
Absolute perfection in Pacino's performance. You can see his broken heart, then the building rage in his eyes. If she were not the mother of his children, that would have been the end for Kay.
It was a great performance
He was sitting there so quiet because he was charging up his ultimate finisher once he reached 4 bars he unleashed the omega pimp slap of death
haha no more street fighters for you buddy
roger Williams hahahah
LOL

Lmfao😂
Michael would've ended the infinity war if he slapped Thanos like that
Haha wow
😂😂😂😂😂
This is true.
Ohhhhh man this made me laugh 😂😂😂😂
Jjajjajajajajajajjajajajjajajajajajajj!!!
The fact Kay's head is still attached to her body is amazing.
he loved her

Lol great

Kay: It was an Abortion, Michael! Michael: ° __ ° ಠ__ಠ ಠ n ಠ
@@annabelvanpelt1196 that's his wife still at goes against his code
Yep…
Michael was caught off guard. Kay knew she’d get away easy because he still deeply loved her and can’t harm her. A great scene despite being polarising and having very little build up.
Indeed
@@lunamilo2065lol what? There WAS build up towards the scene itself.
That's why Vito told him not to marry an American.
hindiakosipels when did Vito tell him that ?🙄
In first movie. When they were qedding.
Madame Poovie Unless said American woman is Catholic or a Christian of any stripe in general. There's plenty of Americans who revile abortion. Here it's a serious hot button topic that's been hotly debated for decades now.
Ranky64 Entertainment Did Anthony Became like him. But killing an unborn child because of a silly reason is just crazy and dumb
MeK MEKanik I don’t remember that?
Al Pacino's such an amazing actor. You can literally see the love he has for Kay drain out of him and be replaced by anger and hatred when she tells him about the abortion. And suddenly he looks at her like she's a monster.
QueenOfFNAF he looks at her like SHE'S a monster ?
3 years have passed, do you still wank at that picture ? are you really a man of your word i wonder
SoleNero21 You are not referring to Sarah Gordan's profile picture of herself, are you? Considering the reply was made out to "QueenOfFNAF," the image in question must have been changed with the channel name a long time ago. We may never get to see what could have inspired such tribute
Because she IS.
@GrayWolf2036 If Michael Corleone is who you have sympathy for in this scene, you're watching the movie wrong.
I remember watching this scene for the first time. Michael's expression was fucking terrifying. I have no idea how Kay just kept on rambling and didn't make a run for the door. I thought he'd do a lot worse than bitch slap her. Michael is the tragic epitome of a good man turned into an evil monster. Great movie
Was he ever really a good man though? I always thought he had the pre-disposition that his father has of a killer right from the beginning, and the interesting thing was, it didn't take much to drag it out of him.
Agreed, "I killed your son" by Kay was really the only thing that could ever produce this level or rage. I would say Michael's decision to be "with" his father at the hospital was the beginning of the end for him. If his wife Apollonia was still alive I would argue he would still have a lot of the humanity that Vito possessed as he became Don. But after her death quickly became very cold in all his dealings, except towards his own children.
peppermint23
disco desanti remember that Apollonia was a Sicilian woman, she would understand Michael's businesses and wouldn't do so many questions like an American wife. I believe that if Apollonia didn't died, Michael could kept his marriage.
I was a kid when I first saw this. I remember watching this with my pop & saying “OMG!!! He’s gonna belt her pop!!” He looked at me & said, “You don’t ever threaten a man’s children in any way!”
Going by his facial expressions, I would have backed up and told him about the abortion by the door. Quickgetaway lol
Blueevoy_6000 SAME OH MY GOD
Nah, if you're gonna stand there and say those things to one of the most powerful and dangerous men in the country, you're not gonna back up and try to run. . .you're gonna stand there and take that pimp slap with cold hard eyes. .otherwise why bother?
Scary face of Pacino
Koolaid Man you can sit that like a clown in your own demented world
Kay has a lot more balls than me
One of the best actors of all time Al Pacino, you can feel that rage he's feeling inside when Kay tells him it was an abortion.
the birth of Tony Montana
Kay is a piece of shit--not that Mike is any saint.
Why nobody mentions Diane Keaton was beyond amazing in this scene?
@@lepetitchat123 Diane also deserves an Oscar nomination (Best supporting actress) as Kay
Getting mad was his signature move, and that's the extent of his acting
apollonia would have never done that.
She would had 10 sons so irresistibly so gorgeous haha :)

apollonia didn't know shit tho. No rational woman would get a child into that hell.

The way he snarls just before slapping her. Man what intensity. As one commenter said "acting masterclass" Pacino got snubbed by the Academy for this film!
Manoli S. No doubt
Didn’t she know he’d lose it?
His eyes filled with rage. That is impeccable acting. Honestly, how can someone act that brilliantly? 😭😭
That’s Alpacino for you
I just noticed his chin also shakes from the rage
The power level on that slap was 2000
IT'S OVER 9000!!!!!

RelentlessRevolver7 Pacino never worked with Woody Allen or Roman Polanski
+RelentlessRevolver7 This comment just made my day:)

Pacino not winning for Godfathers 1 and 2, Serpico, ...And Justice for All, and Dog Day Afternoon is an absolute travesty.
The critics bro
One Oscar for each movie man and 3 more for Scarface, Glengarry Gleen Rose and Scent of a woman. At the end just one :(
+mannythegreek I already said that man, Scarface of course, and yes you are right about that It's unbelievable that Michael and Tony were played by the same man, sadly after 90's there's not more great characters played by Pacino just a couple or three.

Kay's attempt to troll Michael was 100% successful...
I'm crying oh my god
Trolling long before it was a thing.
She's won, but at what cost?
Congratulations, you got the 500th like from me
Successful trolling means to successfully kill own baby?

"Groundhog Day" (1993) is still a better movie...... ;-)
Kay is the only one to ever beat Michael. She took away what he wanted most, and he was powerless against it. He couldn't seek revenge because to hurt her, would hurt his children. The same reason he waited to kill Fredo until his mother had passed. She hurt him in a way no one else ever could. Like she said, she used his moral code against him to end what she felt was wrong.
she is worse than michael aborting her own child and calling their own children devil is worse than anything michael did which was just his business
@@DemonZack666 Agreed. She targeted her children--her own children--to get back at him.
@@camita9860 I don't get the impression that this was revenge in so much that Kay looked around her and realized what a toxic and dangerous environment it was, and by no means would she expose another child to it.
@@gabriellagelir2027 Exactly. Michael was a soulless monster by that point. Look at how unhappy his kids are in his presence during the film. Kay did the right thing.
Women....
Both Diane Keaton and Al Pacino absolutely killed it in this scene, legitimately some of the best acting I have ever seen.
Pacino Not winning an Oscar for The godfather II is a JOKE.
He should have won an Oscar for Scarface too
Really! one if not the biggest mistake ever in Oscar history!!!, he really deserved for this one "The Godfather: Part II (1974)", as well for "Part I" (1972) too, and for "Serpico" (1973) too, & i didn't watched yet one of his most acclaimed performances as Sonny Wortzik in "Dog Day Afternoon" (1975) but seems that the unanimous opinion, is that he deserved to win again that year, even when he's competing with Jack Nicholson on "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest" (1975) that ended winning.
Al could easily have 5 oscars. Lol that’s why he’s the GOAT
@@Tonycillian5 You are totally right, Al Pacino winning just 1 Oscar in his entire career is a great joke, and he could win these 5 oscars only for his work in the 70's alone.
@@LucasLima-ov4mq Cazale and Pacino both deserved an Oscar for The Godfather II & Dog Day Afternoon
1:49 - Good God....his face.
she should have shut up the moment he glared at her like that
He was like Mr. Garvey with that look: “You done messed up, A-A-Ron!”
Big vein in his forehead
Quickly, Best we leave or we’re next🧨🧨🧨
1:50. You notice something working in tandem with Pacino’s eyes - his chin. The subtle quivering of his chin, mirroring the rage percolating inside of him. Right until it finally snaps.
It's like something about to blast
These actors are so good. The scene is so real, so organic. You really believe, for a moment, that is not a movie, but something is actually happening for real, agree?
Only time I’ve cried watching a movie
The slap was actually real
His eyes.... Al Pacino is such a brilliant actor
“Oh Michael. Michael you are blind” I love that line and her delivery. He is blind. His craving to keep and get more power makes him emotionally blind.
It was her last act of standing up to him.
he has more than just his immediate family to be responsible for.or ,are you "blind"?
"first", and make that ,last time.@@lilafeldman8630
Every line is delivered perfectly here. The pity and contempt both present.
Legends say she's still lying on the sofa from that slap.
Animez4u Good that’s where she belongs.
Legends say Michael's DEAD UNBORN son is STILL dangling from a bent up hanger with a puddle BLOOD dripping all around him...
And u are legend... undoubtedly
@@mcgannahanskyjellyfetti1663 Wow... You need help.
She didn't get until Godfather III
I would've ran for the door...why did she keep talking?!
You're a cutie.
That whole time I was thinking "Is she blind? This man is about to blow and she's still talking crap."
She's white, in the movie she is referenced as a WASP. White Anglo Saxon Protestant. Thats how they behave. Come on would you have kept going back to his house looking for him?
Because she wasn't a coward.
Because she did it to solely get at him and hurt him.
They should have left in the part where Michael screams "YOU WON'T TAKE MY CHILDREN!!" His passion in this scene is incredible. Definitely one of the more powerful scenes in the trilogy.
The irony is that she talks about him being “unholy” and a killer when she committed the same thing
I hate it when they cut off the video too soon: "You won't take my children. YOU WON'T TAKE MY CHILDREN!!"
+Max Power oh yeh
freakin' stupid music too
When Michael hit Kay like that, he threatened to kill her, and rape her!
I think this is Diane Keaton's best scene out of a career full of great scenes. Her face here, before she speaks a single word, goes from worry and hurt to anger and contempt, to ultimate exasperation as she launches a broadside at Michael, explaining how foolish and distracted he is and what his behavior is costing him - his son, his family, his very soul. Michael seems so pathetic to Kay in that moment, and Keaton just plays it so perfectly.
Its an awful thing to go through with but I feel like it was her ultimate act of standing up to him.
What makes this scene so great is you can literally see the anger rise up in Al Pacino through his eyes alone, the marriage and eventual abortion simply emphasises the tragedy of Michael's character, a man that promised so much but ultimately delivered so little, its made clear in 1 when Brando tells him "I never wanted this for you" and that he wanted him to be a governor or senator and a family man beacause "A a man that dosen't spend time with his family can never be a real man"
Everyone talks about the italian restaurant scene, the baptism scene, Michael confronting Fredo, and while all those scenes are fantastic, this, to me, is the best acted scene in the godfather trilogy.
Al Pacino almost fell there along with Diane Keaton after slapping her *LMFAO*
Watching the rage build in Pacino's face in this scene, it's such great acting. Like he looks genuinely shocked and hurt and angry. These movies are in a master class of their own
Just wait until YOU have a child terminated , because of a difference in "values". I WELL understand,not condone , how Micheal reacted to her sadistic manipulation of his emotions
@@ciccioaporta3774No excuse for hitting a woman 👎, but the rage was 100% valid
He must have really loved her because by this point in the story Michael is willing to kill pretty much anyone who displeases him and aborting his baby was probably the worst betrayal anyone could inflict upon him, somewhere deep inside him he must have understood why she did it
Like any ex husband they understand things when it's too late, and the sign of hope of remarriage is gone cause they moved on and for remarried
I wish she had killed him in his sleep lmao
Not quite correct. She's the mother of his children after all. He wouldn't want them to grow up without a mother.
@@blazeboy06 But they do get remarried, and then their daughter gets killed in a botched assassination attempt on Michael.
@@domvasta That is why Godfather 3 is a horrible movie. Makes no sense!
You won't take my children. YOU WON'T TAKE MY CHILDREN!!!
man, u could be the next mike LOL
SHE TOOK THE FUCKIN KIDS........KAAAAAAAREEENNN
I believe the bent up hanger did THAT job...
Honestly would have been better.
Al Pacino, keeping the pimp hand strong for 40 years.
Still remember when I first saw this scene. It was one of the most intense scenes in a film ive ever watched. Pacino is just phenomenal in this scene, great movie.
1:30 - 1:54 I just noticed how he goes from heartbroken to furious when she calls their aborted son "it".
Also she said "your son"
@@tvalokibatman6563 That was before she called their son an "it" though. And he wasn't furious yet.
She is truly vile

Funniest comment I've read in a long time. I had to stop writing just to finish laughing!
+Danjoker I cri erytime

Michael should have gone back to Sicily and get another young Sicilian woman and forget about Kay.
One of the greatest acting scenes of all time. Al pacino going from trying to work things out then sadness then to a boiling rage is one of the greatest showings of emotions I've ever seen
Diane Keaton and Al Pacino were deserving of Oscars for this scene alone. The fact that neither of them won (Keaton wasn't even nominated) irritates me even now nearly fifty years later. This scene was absolute perfection, in my opinion the best moment in film history. How could they not have given Pacino an Oscar for this?
She aborted that child because it was a son. She feared that he might become a gangster like his father. What makes her so sure that her daughter won't be a gangster?
They were a pretty traditional family (obviously, considering all the Italian/Sicilian customs throughout the films). So I think it's safe to say that the daughters were not going to inherit the family business...Lol.
MsMorganVEVO I was being sarcastic. I know that. Plus considering the perfect world. Anything is possible.
anger
karthu1993 or maybe even worse than a gangster.... a whooah!
nickademo frost that sounds sexist...
Disreguarding people's opinion on abortion for a minute, Here's a thought: Michael wanted another son with the assumption that Anthony or the new child would run the Family in the future, but he wanted another male child in case something happened to Anthony or to New child. This could be paralled with how Freido wanted to be Godfather, but was wacked off and Sonny's death
"And remember, always keep your pimp hand strong".- Michael Corleone (1920-1997)
Wait the Godather part 3 ends in 1997? I Thought it ended in 1980 becuass I ounce saw a VHS boxset of the Godfather trilogy that said 1901-1980

@@Ballowax Michael's daughter died in 1980,which when 3 is set in.But based on Michael's birth date and that he looks like he's in his 70's when he dies,then it's sure that it's 17 years after 3.
Killing a baby what a freaking monster and then she has nerves to judge him and pass judgment on him.
@@reina8284 I guess your anti-baby life
@@reina8284 The simple act of intercourse is for conception
The delivery on "Because this must all end!" by Diane Keaton is so powerful. Incredible acting by her and Pacino in this scene.
Damn when I saw his eyes the first time I saw this movie, I honestly thought he was gonna kill her right there.
jesus she managed to push absolutally every single possible button, somthing no one else could do but because Micheal thought of her as docile, you could also see him trying to hypnotise her with his eyes too, fantastic scene cant believe it didnt get al best actor
The acting from these two is just superb. That little shake of the head from Kay when Michael says he'll change is so subtle, but it lets you know this conversation isn't going to end well.
This part of the movie shows that Al Pacino is the best actor at showing anger for his roles. Especially at 1:50-1:54.
That bottom lip when it trembles. Scarier than any horror movie.
This is one of the best movie scenes in history, I could actually feel exactly what Michael was feeling.
People seem to take Pacino's performance for granted, while forgetting how great he truly is.
this scene just became even more important.
Same reason Tony montanas girl didn't want to have children by him. Because she thought hed be dead or be a horrible father. And she didn't want him to be born into the coke business. I wonder which scene is more intense this one or scarfaces dinner scene!! Both wonderful on al pacinos part!!
TheBlurReturns16 I don't know man. that slap could be felt all over the world.
Thing is he wasn’t a horrible father, Michael never pushed his children to follow his path and Kay and Tony wife are two different people
Alvida was a junkie tho. she couldn't have kids even if she wanted to. best case senario the kid will come out mentally handicapped.
Tony had strict morals that women and childern NEVER get involved in the business. If people actually paid attention to the movie he does basically say he wants to stop eventually and wants a son so he can pass the wealth down to him and retire from it. He got caught up when he burned all his bridges with people but he wanted a kid badly and I can tell by how he treated his sister in the best scenes that he would have been an okay dad.
Al Pacino's performance here is some of the best acting I've ever seen. Perfection. Has to be one of the biggest Oscar snubs ever that he wasn't awarded Best Actor for this performance.
Al Pacino does more with his eyes in this scene than most actors do in an entire movie. The role he played as Michael Corleone is nothing but a masterpiece and can hardly be touched by anyone else.
Someone remind me again why Pacino didn't win Best Actor for this incredible performance?
"IT WAS AN ABORTION!!" Unfortunately, she was also talking about The Godfather: Part III.
I refuse to watch it because it would ruin how perfect the first two are.
@@ernstthalmann4306 it was bad but not that much
But I liked Godfather 3………… It ended the series well I feel.
Its not as bad as people say.. clearly not at the level of the first 2 but still a good movie regardless
Are you saying they should have aborted Godfather 3?
1:48 - 1:53 my favorite Al Pacino moment of all time. You can see the hatred and anger rising in his eyes.
At least Michael is CONSISTENT. He's born in a Mafia family he continues in that family. Kay his wife is not consistent. She loves a Mafia boy but she loathes a Mafia boss. She raised two children in the Mafia family but she killed the third child. She wanted to flirt with the devil but after sometime she wanted to play God. Can somebody please tell me what the hell is going on in that woman's head????
+TheVoiceOfTruth you are right my friend. He looked really happy with her.
Still better than every other women in the family. Babe in the woods my foot.
Devill Spankalot thats a woman for ya
She was an intensely weak character. She played the epitome of the type of wife every man dreams of never having.
Nothing. That's what. She's a weak woman.
dat slap tho
1:49 Pacino's chin movement is amazing !
Of all the things Kay could have said to wound Michael, I don't think she could have outdone this. Any words used to describe Pacino's expression, as her words start to sink in, would be an understatement. Truly an incredible acting job by both.
Of course Pacino in this is phenomenal but Diane Keaton is just as amazing in this scene. The way she conveys emotion with just her facial expressions as Michael is giving her the same “ I’ll change “ speech is top tier
How did Pacino not win the academy award that year? He's had so many good performances throughout his legendary career but this scene right here is the one that should have got him the Oscar. Incredible acting. World class.
You're learning that the Oscars are irrelevant. The history of the Academy Awards is replete with examples of mediocre films winning and great films losing.
I feel Michael was more pissed hearing the fact that it was a male child, who could’ve been a potential heir to the family in future. He’d have been less angry if it was a girl as he already had a daughter.
I love Diane Keaton so much. This is her best dramatic performance, next to REDS. So brilliant.
Did the chair die?
No. But that joke did in 2007
Julio Bustos ouch
Julio Bustos There was no joke in 2007.
1:49 How can anyone keep talking when someone looks at you like this
One of the greatest scenes in film, probably the greatest scene in the trilogy. Up there with Andy’s escape in Shawshank, the ending to the dark knight (and the infamous “hit me” scene), and Dave’s defeat of HAL in 2001
the fact that she kept talking and didnt notice he was boiling that a pot of hot water lol lol
Beautiful scene; Kay has close to no agency in this masculine dominated world and the only way she could defy Michael was by using her body and Michael, despite all of his strategic brilliance, is brought down to a shameful and clueless man who can only use violence to lash out, like the system he once despised yet is now embedded into. It's Shakespearean, and reminds me of the tragic downfall of Ophelia whose only act of agency was suicide and the weaponisation of that grief.
And what was the result? She got slapped up and missed out on raising her kids. Michael went about his business trying to take over the world.
Gosh darn it--why'd you have to cut off the last 30 seconds of the scene?!
I think you can hear the sonic boom of his hand breaking the sound barrier when he slapped her
That expression he made before slapping Katy, was honestly some of the most frighting expressions I have ever seen in my whole life in watching films. He act like the Joker nor spoke a word at all. Just gave a look of pure anger. It was perfect
Michael is more of a tragic hero to me. He wasn't utterly despicable because he had love for the people who loved him.
Why did you cut this off before the last lines in the scene?
There's so many layers in this scene-- so much emotional subtext. The acting in this is first class.
He doesn't hit her because of the abortion. He's angry about it, and she's right: he'll never forgive her. What makes him snap and react with violence is that she's telling him the truth about himself. He needed a wife who would go to church and pray for him; tell him he's a good man so he could keep believing it. When Kay lets Michael know that she sees what he's become and she wants no part of it, the facade crumbles and he loses control. I can't believe people missed the point this badly.
yadayadayada- "We're ALL a part of the same HYPOCRISY..."
Notice how in any scene before he flips out, Al Pacino seems to be twitching his eyes in various directions.
Shocking and despicable how you distorted the scene and didn't show it from the beginning ..
The intensity, his stare and his jaw trembling. That is acting right there at it's finest. The Academy Awards are a joke for not awarding him the best actor Oscar.
I am not a crime lord but this situation happened to me. My ex was cheating. She got pregnant. I uncovered messages that she was telling the other guy she would terminate. She told me she had a miscarriage. I'll never no the truth. I was young and Pro-Choice. Still am but I had no idea the rage knowing she possibly killed my child. It's an undying rage.
Hope you’re doing alright now bro, keep fighting for your happiness and take massive action everyday.
@reina8284 I highly doubt if I was a woman and shared the same experience. You'd say that. You raise major red flags since you reek of "men bad." If a woman does something wrong there is a man to blame for it. Correct? You don't know me and all I did was share my lived experience and you are giving me your podcast reactions.
@@reina8284 Complete 🤡 lol
Wow. I'm like, if she already gave birth to his first son, what's the point in killing his second? There's no guarantee whether the first or the second son would be a bad seed or "evil" as she thought his kids would be.
I don't think she thought the kids would be born evil (this isn't Rosemary's Baby), but rather that Michael would corrupt them and raise them to become mobsters. Remember that scene in this movie when Michael's son states that one day he would like to help his father out with his work (not knowing what that would be) and Michael says to him, "One day you will". It's pretty implicit that he is going to groom his son to take over his role. I think that Kay is telling him that she will not give him anymore potential heirs. Had it been a daughter, I don't think she would have done it, but it was a son and she didn't want another child to be raised to be a killer and criminal, so she had an abortion.
She didn't love him anymore, she opened her eyes finally, that way of living didnt resonate with her, so why would anyone bare the child of someone who has lost your respect? She decided to leave with her children, even though Michael didnt let her.
@@maritzamejia5312 lol she knew from the very beginning. Its a good thing he never told her the details because she would have rated. The worst decision Michael made was not marrying an Italian woman.
@@madjames2392 well he did marry an italian woman. I think he should have done the same thing.
@@wasifiqbal9984 atleast someone who understood the history and the culture.
Now thats a lot to take in
you really notice that the sound is out of sync when you see the slap and the sound comes early
Michael tells Kay nothing about his business and Kay tells Michael nothing about her growing dissatisfaction with their family. Years of pent up frustration all explodes in this scene. It's a great illustration of collapse of communication in a relationship.
legend has it Kay is still flying threw the air towards that couch
His eyes alone could win an Oscar!!! The way they turn angry... and in the first Godfather they looked so innocent, then later on became cold
Those who think Apollonia was a better fit clearly didn't read the book: "She was just a village girl, barely literate, with no idea of the world". She was a teenager who starting liking Michael when she found out he was wealthy. She wouldn't have fared any better, probably worst. That was kind of the moral of the story. Michael was meant to be a tragic figure.
She was Sicilian. She wouldn't have aborted Michael's son. So by that standard, yeah, she would have been better. She also grew up in a town in Siciliy infested with mafia, so she and her family weren't unfamiliar with how that lifestyle worked. Her father knew who Michael was and who his father was, so she would have handled that life better than Kay, a naive WASP from New England with zero experience with organized crime and the responsibilities that come marrying into a family like that.
Being educated doesn't mean you'd be better fit for a mafia boss. And liking a guy after finding out his wealth is just the nature of women so no difference there anyways
@@user-pd9ju5dk5s "nature of women" just because you've got no game that doesn't mean all women are gold diggers
@@divyaojha9149 yes, it is. Stop lying to yourself lmfao. Men chase beauty, and women chase resources. If you actually had any dating experience you'd know
@brandon this is so real
The stare Michael gives her before hitting her is chilling. Al Pacino genuinely is a great actor.
Angry, younger Al Pacino makes me want to bed him furiously.
I remember this scene even when I was a little-boy being awoken in the middle of the night. While still conscious I heard all of it nearly in the background of my kitchen & even then I felt anxiety & tenseness within.
You can see how Michael is first confused, like he didn't really realize what was happening, just with his eyes. Then the anger he feels and showed it with his whole face. Al Pacino did a perfect job and didn't win the Oscar, it's not fair at all.
This was it for Michael. This is when he changed from family man to business man.
