When it comes to the Novel, reasons why Barzini wasn't shaken by Moe's death. One, he was too highed up on himself to notice; he didn't consider Michael a threat, more like a 2- bit punk in a suit; and a space cadet or a girl scout could've whacked Moe. Moe was a well connected Gambler/Crook. Yeah he built Vegas but he wasn't well protected and had a big mouth.

The meeting with Moe Greene was more than a negotiation-it’s a strategic masterclass, a practical application of The Art of War in the world of the mafia. What if there was a way to unlock that clarity and gain the upper hand in every situation? artofwar.academy 🤫 🐉

Micheal was pretty much a younger Vito, the book talked about that a lot. Where Sonny had to be told everything and didn't bother listening anyway, Micheal already had a mind for the family business, even if he didn't want any part in it. When it came time to teaching him, Vito only had to relay experience, not the fundamentals and Micheal was ready and willing to listen. He was born to cause death and make money.

No, Michael changed after his father got shot and he gave Sollozzo and that cop retribution. He was already ruthless when he met Apollonia. Had Apollonia lived, he would've became even more powerful, because she would've supported him fully, unlike Kay, who needled him every step of the way.

Agreed. That was the problem. He never looked in the mirror and accepted responsibility for the close assasination of Don Vito. If he was any other man, they would kill him. Its a mistake that is untolerable. You can almost say it was the beginning of the demise of Fredo. He could have been a secret mole within the family all along. I know we dont think he was too bright, but with the weakness of Fredo, he could have been used just as early. I know some will say he would never because of Vito and Sonny, but think. Who else would fumble a gun when his father is being attacked and recover from it. Because of his position in the family, Fredo failed up when he was never ready at all, and did not have or use the suppporting cast to succeed. Also, there is some culpability on Don Vito for Fredo's position.

When Mo Green mentions that the don is sick and weak and suggests by projection that the family is also weak, Al Pacino gives the slightest reaction of weakness. At that moment, for just a moment, he shifts his intense gaze off Green and looks at the table. Beautiful subtle reaction. Great actors are great listeners, e.g. Robert Mitchum knew how to listen.

Fredo was never considered when the Don, Sonny, Michael and Tom were were making moves and discussing the family. Bad enough he was weak and slow to begin with, but he was always made to feel like he was just being tolerated, never involved. His lack of confidence, his being left out of the inner circle...he never had the benefit of learning how the game was played and what was expected. The most tragic figure in the entire story.

Fredo is the middle child, so it is likely that had Sonny still been alive when Michael met with Moe, Fredo would not have been is such a position, and Moe would have been more respectful. However, in their eyes, Sonny, the crown prince, is dead, the spare is a fool, and Michael is a third-string tagalong. Fredo should have been using his time in Vegas to strengthen his position, but he was content to merely coast in place while slowly becoming embittered. At the very least, he should have been feeding information back to Vito and Michael about things in Vegas. In the end, I think that Sonny would have done from the beginning what Michael did not, cut Fredo from the family business. Michael tried to rule as his father had, but he should have completely disconnected Fredo from the illegitimate side of the business, making him useless to Roth.

I have long stated that the Godfather 1--3 theme that was the unwavering connection between father and son only a true Italian family could appreciate. But here most of these observations are very revealing, and I appreciate it. As someone who is half Italian with a 100% Italian father i do not support ruthless criminals, but this series IS very important and entertaining. Perhaps the most severe ending and my favorite was the collapse and lonely natural death of the singular don.

That is literally the best characterization comparisons of the Corleone brothers I’ve ever heard. “Michael was playing chess, 10 steps ahead…..Fredo was playing…Uno or something, I dunno….” Lmao 😂

The Moe Greene meeting is one of my favorite scenes in the movie. It really does show that Michael has taken the lessons his father had given him to heart. If only Sonny and Fredo had listened to what Vito had told them that they would still be alive and Michael would have the quiet life he always wanted. Thank You for the videos!!! I would love to see videos on the women in the story especially Carmella.

When Hyman Roth says "Moe Green was talking loud, saying stupid things," he is referring to the fact that Moe Green, a casino owner associated with Roth, was being overly boisterous and making unwise comments, likely revealing sensitive information or potentially jeopardizing their business dealings, which ultimately led to his assassination orchestrated by Michael Corleone. Key points about the quote: "More Green": This is a shortened way of saying "Moe Green," a character known for his flashy lifestyle and gaudy casinos. "Talking loud": Implies that Moe Green was openly discussing things he shouldn't be, potentially bragging or making careless remarks. "Saying stupid things": This means that the things Moe Green was saying were not only loud but also foolish and potentially damaging to their business interests.

One of my favorite of all time scenes is in the beginning... The monologue of Micheal between him and the Senator in Michael's office. Its perfect. Another intense verbal chess match

I had to watch this movie several times to even get it. I still learn things I didn’t know. Part 1 is a classic, part 2 is a masterpiece, part 3 should have never been made.

I don't think Michael was that bothered about Mo Green. I think he knew he could take him out whenever he wanted. Michael was just interested in how he could use Green, his survival or his end, to consolidate his power as widely as possible. Michael never acted on passion, only on strategy.

In fairness to Fredo, maybe Michael could have given him a heads up of what was coming and behavior expectations. Michael knew Fredo well enough to know he'd be an issue.

In the novel, Sonny's mistress Lucy Mancini was made silent partner in the Coreolone's Las Vegas holdings. She was also tasked with keeping an eye on things and reporting back to the Don on how things were going. Maybe, just maybe it was Lucy who found out that Moe was skimming off the top, which she relayed back to the Don.

Michael came out and said the casino was losing money. The only way to possibly lose money on a casino back then was skimming.

Agreed. It was Fredo's first time with Power. If I recall correctly, he had no position in the family. He was not as strong as, Sonny. When he was called upon, he fumbled the ball protecting Vito. Maybe Vito should have spent more time grooming him for leadership instead of putting all his eggs in the basket with Sonny. I am not talking about grooming him as head of the fanily but more of a secondary role (I could be wrong. He may have already. Possibly, deleted scenes. I need re-read the book). Then again it goes to show, you can never plan enough with an empire. It is constant and all risks need addressing at all times.

"Fredo, you're my older brother and I love you, but don't ever take sides with anyone against the family again. Ever." Fredo got the only warning he should have needed.
