Maybe Sonny would've become Don and Michael would never have joined the family business. Fredo would never have been killed. Carlo and Connie would've attended marriage counseling and grown happier. Sal would not have been killed, having no need to double-cross anyone. Paulie would've eventually gotten a job as a dancing judge, working at competitions.

Sonny showed interest in a deal that the Godfather was rejecting. As the Godfather says, never tell anyone outside the family what you're thinking. If someone sees that people in the family have differing opinions then they might try and exploit that. You should always deal with differing opinions behind closed doors. Once Sollozo saw Sonny was interested in his deal he tried to kill the Godfather to get him out of the way so he could do business with Sonny.

I don’t think sonny showed interest by rejecting the idea of the tattaglia’s guaranteeing their investment. When Sollozzo kidnaps tom he tells tom he knew sonny was hot for his deal, and that tom knew it was the right thing to do. I wondered how he knew that, and I think it’s because of Carlo. In The Godfather epic, before the three of them talk about narcotics, Connie and Carlo are having a fight in the house right near the room they are talking in. So it could only be that Carlo was listening in on the meeting between tom sonny and Don Corleone.
@dondajulah41686 жыл бұрын
Notice when the meeting ends everyone gets up when the Don rises from his chair with the exception of Sonny. Could be that he was upset that he was upset with his dad for humiliating him but could also be that he is upset that the offer was declined. You can also see Sonny fidgeting with his glass while the Don is explaining why he is rejecting the deal indicating that he is unsettled by his fathers decision to reject the deal. As this preceded Sonny's interjection re security provided by Tataglia, lends more credence to the notion that there is division on whether to accept the proposal. In either case, Sonny demonstrates that he is lacking in the qualities necessary to successfully lead the family so can be manipulated by Solozo when he takes the reins. No doubt in my mind that how Sonny conducted himself in that meeting led to the Don being shot.
@dondajulah41686 жыл бұрын
One also needs to keep in mind that every aspect of what is going on in the background of the scene is much more likely to have the intention of conveying a message to be interpreted by the audience than might be the case in real life. Wheras fidgeting with a glass could just be shrugged off as a tic or simply displaying a level of anxiousness or agitation with no real significance if it were to occur in real life, when it appears in a movie scene it is meant to be interpreted. The logical interpretation given by Solazo's reaction to the interjection by Sonny is that there is a division that can be exploited if the Don were out of the picture. Solazo even states that in the scene where they pick up Hagan off the street so I dont believe it is the case that there was some other source providing the motivation for Solazo to move against Don Corleone.

If you ever feel useless, just remember that Fredo was part of the meeting. Edit: To those saying Sonny is the one at fault here, YES its true and you're absolutely right. If Sonny kept quiet, then no trouble would have occurred and Sonny could have done something else to solve this matter which Fredo would never be able to do. There is a difference between being useless and irrational. Fredo being useless means he can't do anything that will benefit or save the family from Sollozzo's proposal. Sonny being irrational means he did something wrong that led to danger for the family but if Sonny was not irrational, he is still capable of doing something else that will not harm the family.

I think the Don had already made the decision not to take the deal. His reasons were beyond just the arrangement. He spoke on his opinion of drugs and how it would affect his influence, this is reinforced in the meeting with the families. I think this meeting was simply to meet Sollozo, and see who he is working with (the tattaligas), which worked to an extent. When Sonny voiced his opposition that’s when Sollozo found an excuse to start trouble under the guise of business. The reality was that Barzini was just making a power move against the Corleone family, hence the line “it was barzini all along”

Then...the 70's & '80's happened, and everything fell to pieces.

Like a true Sicilian, Vito straight up lied to Sollozzo's face in the most respectful manner possible, pretending he had already made up his mind and showed up just to politely say 'no' in person. Both Hagan and Sonny were on board prior, and based on Sonny's reaction, it seems that his father was at least considering the offer going in. Regardless of his trepidations towards the business, I bet he would've agreed if he felt he had the right guy to back. Problem was Sollozzo wanted two things, and he was completely wrong about which one Don Vito was concerned with. Notice how impressed he is by the indifference of a 1 million dollar buy in. That's like 10-15 million today. That's a lot of money gone if he makes a bad bet, but Don Vito doesn't even seem phased by it. It's not the million dollars, but the 'nickels and dimes' that Vito has a problem with. Notice how he calls those nickels and dimes his 'friends'. Even after that comment, Don Corleone STILL gives him a chance to show he understands what he's asking for. Don Corleone wants to be acknowledged as the only guy that can protect a drug kingpin, and he wants it to be acknowledged that doing so comes with a personal price that will be considered in the future by his would-be partner, because as rich as he is, he's definitely not the only guy with a million dollars to lend out, especially considering the returns. It shows that Sollozzo has no regard for the politicians, they're just people who need to be paid off by a guy with the right connections. If he showed Don Vito that he knew the political price he was asking for was bigger than the actual money he needed, I bet he would've accepted it. Instead, he completely misunderstood Don Vito's priorities, and Sonny tipped their hand of the true intent behind the meeting.

I just noticed that after Vito rejects the offer (3:12)- when the camera goes back to Salozzo, you can hear a crash in the background (almost like a faint bolt of lighting). The same thing happens when Vito says he has "a sentimental weakness for his children". When the camera pans back to Salozzo (4:00) you hear the faint bolt of lightning again. To me, this is punctuating Salozzo's thoughts (and his body language) during those two points in the scene that 1) Vito had to be killed and 2) that he may have a chance to do business with Sonny with Vito out of the way.

3:50 The way Brando looks at Caan, that pause, is exactly what a father would do with a son who stepped out of line. My children never liked "the look" I would give them when they knew I was not happy with them. lol Brilliant acting.

Exactly! If you do, you`re giving The Associate some power over you. Also Sollozzo knew that Don Corleone`s Power was beginning to slip. He called Tom on it. Sonny gave Sollozzo some power when he shouldn`t have.

This scene is so strong... first the Don meeting with his top man: the consigliere and his underboss, to hear their thoughs on narcotics... despite that the Don himself had his resolve on the matter all along. Then... the meeting between the Turk and the heads of the family: from the Don to the two family captains. Just beautiful...

I agree. Brando always did little things like that to add depth and interest. For example when he puts on Edie's gloves in "On the Waterfront." And I could give a bunch of other examples.

So many films do exposition so poorly, but Tom’s very brief exposition here (the Don doesn’t need to be told what their enemies will do with the drug money, that was for us) is so smooth and concise and fits the scene so well, it’s perfect. Great direction, great screenwriting.

When Sollozzo says: "my compliments" to Hagen he is only pretending to compliment him. He wants to reinforce the bad intelligence that it is the Tataglia family alone who is backing him. The Tataglias may have been in on it, but The Turk at that moment was directing attention away from his main backer: Barzini. The real threat "all along" as Vito would later put it.
@mattthomas14423 жыл бұрын
Yep. Not sticking up for Tom since as a consigliere it's his job to find out these things but I would've thought The Don would have been smart enough to know that it couldn't have just been Tataglia. I mean in his own words Tataglia was "just a pimp", he should have known that there was somebody with more power and money behind him.

Interesting and it makes sense. It reinforces the idea that this whole thing was an exploratory effort by Sollozzo - to find out what the Corleones are like, what info they had (or didn't have), etc. He did seem disappointed when Vito gave him the 'no' answer, but it begs the question whether he really thought there was a chance of this working out or if he was doing a bit of acting to cover a more subversive purpose. Gotta wonder what would have happened if Vito said yes.... Would Sollozzo actually try to balance the interests of all these families or would he still plot against Vito and buy extra-nice flowers for his funeral since he had his million bucks...?

Love how he illustrates the maxim to never let anyone know what you're really thinking when he tells Solozzo "since you're interests don't conflict with mine" when deep down Vito knows damn well that they do and that Solozzo may have a violent plan-b, which Vito was right about.

In the Puzo novel the Don was even more irate with Sonny after the Sollozzo meeting, “Santino, never let anyone outside the family know what you are thinking. Never let them know what you have under your fingernails. I think your brain is going soft from all that comedy you play with that young girl. Stop it and pay attention to business. Now get out of my sight.” Hagen saw the surprise on Sonny’s face, then anger at his father’s reproach. Did he really think the Don would be ignorant of his conquest, Hagen wondered. And did he really not know what a dangerous mistake he had made this morning? If that were true, Hagen would never wish to be the Consigliori to the Don of Santino Corleone.” : The Godfather by Mario Puzo (1969)

Word! Another big business mistake that Sonny did was send Fredo to Las Vegas under the protection of Don Francesco where he would learn The Casino Business. He was Moe Greene's Whipping Boy, then betrayed The Family with Hyman Roth.
