Hello, Mama. Hello. How are you? Thank you.
Where's Michael? I've got to talk to him

CONDUCTOR ON MICROPHONE: Ladies and gentlemen...
CICCI: Frank, wake up.
CONDUCTOR: A most distinguished guest would like to say a few words.
Would you please welcome Senator Pat Geary of the State of Nevada.
(GUESTS APPLAUDING) And there is Mrs. Geary.
GEARY: Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen.
This is a very, very happy day
for me and, uh, my wife Mrs. Geary.
We see Nevada far too seldom.
But particularly today when we can...
We can join with old friends, we can make new friends
and we help celebrate a young man's first Communion.
And also to thank that boy's family
for a magnificent contribution to the State.
I have here in my hand a check
made out to the university
and it is a magnificent endowment in the name of
(PEOPLE APPLAUDING) Uh...
(MISPRONOUNCING) Anthony Vito Corleone.
And the check is signed by that young man's parents
whom I think we should recognize.
Mike, Pat, uh, Kay, stand up, please.
Let the folks see you!
Folks, I want you to join with me
in giving a real Nevada "Thank you" (DRUMROLL)
to Mr. and Mrs. Michael Corleone!
(INAUDIBLE)
We also have, as a special added attraction,
the Sierra Boys Choir
who have chosen a certain special song and a special arrangement
to honor their host, Mr. Michael Corleone.
Boys.
(PIANO MUSIC PLAYING)
(CHOIR SINGING)
PHOTOGRAPHER: The plaque.
Okay, fellows, did you get that one?
Okay, that's good.
Now, Senator, just you and Mrs. Corleone.
This is my lawyer Tom Hagen, Senator Geary.
He's the one who arranged this whole thing through your man Turnbull.
Yes, yes.
Sit down.
Well, I was under the impression that you and I would talk alone.
I trust these men with my life, Senator.
If I were to ask them to leave, it would be an insult.
Well, it's perfectly all right with me
but I am a blunt man and I intend to speak very frankly to you.
Maybe more frankly
than anyone in my position has ever talked to you before.
The Corleone family has done well in Nevada.
You own, or control, two major hotels in Vegas
and one in Reno.
The licenses were grandfathered in,
so there was no problem with the Gaming Commission.
Now my sources tell me
that you plan to make a move against the Tropigala.
They tell me that within a week,
you're going to move Klingman out.
That's quite an expansion.
However, it will leave you with one little technical problem.
(GULPS)
The license will still be in Klingman's name.
Turnbull is a good man.
Yeah, well, let's cut out the bullshit.
I don't want to spend more time here than I have to.
You can have the license.
The price is 250,000 dollars.
Plus a monthly payment of five percent of the gross
of all four hotels, Mr., uh,
(EMPHASIZES ITALIAN PRONUNCIATION) Corleone.
Now the price for the license
is less than $20,000, right?
GEARY: That's right.
Now why would I ever consider paying more than that?
Because I intend to squeeze you.
I don't like your kind of people.
I don't like to see you come out to this clean country in oily hair
dressed up in those silk suits
and try to pass yourselves off as decent Americans.
I'll do business with you, but the fact is that
I despise your masquerade,
the dishonest way you pose yourself.
Yourself and your whole fucking family.
Senator,
we're both part of the same hypocrisy.
But never think it applies to my family.
(DISMISSIVELY) All right, all right.
Some people have to play little games.
You play yours.
So let's just say that you'll pay me because it's in your interest to pay me.
But I want your answer and the money by noon tomorrow.
And one more thing.
Don't you contact me again, ever.
From now on you deal with Turnbull.
Open that door, son.
Senator, you can have my answer now if you like.
My offer is this...
Nothing.
Not even the fee for the gaming license,
which I would appreciate if you would put up personally.
(CHUCKLING)
Good afternoon, gentlemen.
Ladies! I didn't know you were out here.
Honey, we have to go. We're 30 minutes late.
KAY: Oh, really? I'm sorry.
GEARY: Mrs. Corleone, it's been delightful. Thank you. KAY: Oh, no...
It was our pleasure. Thank you so much, it was wonderful talking with you.
(MUSIC PLAYING) (INDISTINCT CHATTERING)
Fredo! Fredo, you son-of-a-bitch, you look great!
Frank Pentangeli!
I thought you was never coming out west, you big bum!
I've got to check on my boys.
Hey, Fredo, what's with the food here? What's the matter?
A kid comes up to me in a white jacket,
gives me a Ritz cracker with chopped liver and says, "canapes".
I said, "Can of peas, my ass. That's a Ritz cracker and chopped liver!"
(LAUGHING)
Bring out the peppers and sardines!
Oh, seeing you reminds me of New York, the old days!
Hey, Fredo,
you remember, uh, Willi Cicci, who was with old man Clemenza in Brooklyn?
Yeah, look here...
We were all upset about that, Frankie. Heart attack, huh?
No, no, that was no heart attack.
That's... That's what I'm here to see your brother Mike about.
But what's with him?
What do you mean?
I mean, what do I got to do,
do I have to get a letter of introduction to get a sit-down?
You...you can't get in to see Mike?
He's got me waiting in a lobby!
Johnny Ola.
Al Neri.
Do you know my lawyer Tom Hagen? Johnny Ola... Sure...
I remember Tom from the old days.
Rocco.
What's this?
It's an orange from Miami.
Why don't you take care of Johnny's men?
They look like they might be hungry.
Johnny?
Tom isn't gonna sit in with us, Johnny.
He only handles specific areas of the family business. Tom...
Sure, Mike.
What are you drinking, Johnny?
Anisette.
If you need anything, Mike, I'll be outside, all right?
MICHAEL: Just tell Rocco we're waiting, Tom.
JOHNNY: I just left, uh, Mr. Roth in Miami.
MICHAEL: How is his health?
JOHNNY: Ahh, it's not good. (SIGHS)
MICHAEL: Is there anything I can do, anything I can send?
JOHNNY: He appreciates your concern, Michael, and your respect.
That casino you are interested in...
The registered owners are Jacob Lawrence, Allan Barclay.
Both Beverly Hills attorneys.
The real owners are the old Lakeville Road group from Cleveland
and our friend in Miami.
Meyer Klingman runs it
he owns a piece of it too, he does all right.
But I've been instructed to tell you
that if you move Klingman out, our friend in Miami will go along.
It's very kind of him.
You tell him it's greatly appreciated.
Hyman Roth always makes money for his partners.
One by one, our old friends are gone.
Death, natural or not,
prison, deported...
Hyman Roth is the only one left,
because he always made money for his partners.

I'll see my sister alone.
It concerns me too. Is it okay if I stay?
How are you, honey? You've met Merle, he was with me in Vegas.
I saw him with you.
Could I have a drink or something?
Al, please get him a drink!
We're going to Europe. I'd like to book passage on The Queen.
So what do you come to me for? Why don't you go to a travel agent?
We're getting married first.
The ink on your divorce isn't dry yet, and you're getting married?
You see your children on weekends.
You know your oldest boy, Victor, was picked up in Reno
for some petty theft you don't even know about. Michael!
You fly around the world with men who don't care for you and use you like a whore.
You're not my father!
Then what do you come to me for?
'Cause I need money.
Connie, Connie, Connie, Connie, Connie, Connie...
(EXHALES DEEPLY)
I want to be reasonable with you.
Now why don't you stay with us...with the family?
You can live on the estate with your kids.
You won't be deprived of anything.
You can have everything you want.
I don't know this Merle. I don't know what he does
I don't know what he lives on.
Now why don't you tell him that marriage is out of the question,
and you don't want to see him anymore.
He'll understand, believe me.
(EXHALES FORCEFULLY)
Connie.
If you don't listen to me
and marry this man,
you'll disappoint me.
(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING OVER P.A.)
WOMAN: Famiglia!
ALL: Cent' anni!
What's "Chen dannay"?
"Cent' anni". It means 100 years.
It means we should all live happily for 100 years. The family.
It would be true if my father were alive.
MAMA CORLEONE: Connie.
Hey...
Merle, you've met my sister-in-law, Deanna.
Fredo's wife. My pleasure.
How do you do?
(SPEAKING ITALIAN)
(EXCLAIMS IN ITALIAN)
(BAND PLAYING MUSIC)
(INAUDIBLE)
(DRUNKENLY) What's the matter? I just...I just want to dance!
Dancing is one thing... you're falling all over the floor.
DEANNA: Oh, I know what's the matter with you.
You're just jealous because he's a real man!
I swear to God, Deanna, I'm going to belt you right in the teeth.
Ah! You couldn't belt your mama!
You know something...
These Dagos are crazy when it comes to their wives.
Michael says that if you can't take care of this,
I have to.
I think you'd better.
DEANNA: Never marry a Wop.
They treat their wives like shit!
I didn't mean to say Wop.
(SCREAMS) Don't! Rocco!
What are you doing to me, you big slob? Help!
Fredo!
I can't control her, Mikey.
You're my brother, you don't have to apologize.
Clemenza promised the Rosato brothers three territories in the Bronx after he died.
You took over and you didn't give it to them.
I welched. MICHAEL: You welched.
Yeah. Clemenza promised them lu cazzo.
Clemenza promised them nothing.
He hated those son-of-a-bitches more than I do.
Frankie, they feel cheated.
Michael...you're sitting high up in the Sierra mountains. And you're drinking, uh...
What's he drinking?
Champagne. Champagne. Champagne cocktails.
And passing judgment on how I run my family.
(IN ITALIAN)
(SPEAKS ITALIAN)
You're a good old man
and I like you.
You were loyal to my father for years.
The Rosato brothers are taking hostages.
They spit right in my face,
all because they're backed up by that Jew in Miami.
I know. That's why I don't want them touched.
You don't want 'em touched? No.
I want you to be fair with them.
You want me to be fair with them?
(LAUGHS) How can you be fair to animals?
Tom, for Crissakes, listen. They recruit spics, they recruit niggers.
They do violence in their... in their Grandmothers' neighborhoods!
And I tell you, everything with them is whores! Whores!
And junk, dope!
And they leave the gambling to last.
I want to run my family without you on my back.
And I want those Rosatos dead!
No.
Morti.
Now I have business that's important with Hyman Roth.
I don't want it disturbed.
And you give your loyalty to a Jew before your own blood.
Come on, Frankie,
you know my father did business with Hyman Roth. He respected him.
Your father did business with Hyman Roth, your father respected Hyman Roth,
but your father never trusted Hyman Roth
or his Sicilian messenger boy, Johnny Ola.

Sleeping inside me.
Does it feel like a boy?
Yes. Yes, it does, Michael.
Kay? Hmm?
I'm sorry about all the people today.
Bad timing.
It couldn't be helped, though.
It made me think of what you once told me.
"In five years the Corleone family
"will be completely legitimate."
That was seven years ago.
I know. I'm trying, darling.

Mikey, are you all right?
Yeah. Yeah.
There's a lot I can't tell you, Tom.
And I know that's upset you in the past.
A little. Yeah.
You felt it was because of some lack of trust or confidence.
But it's...it's because I admire you and love you
that I kept things secret from you.
That's why at his moment you're the only one I completely trust.
Fredo?
Well, he's got a good heart.
But he's weak and he's stupid,
and this is life and death.
Tom, you're my brother.
(SIGHS)
(VOICE TREMBLING) I always wanted to be thought of as a brother by you, Mikey.
A real brother.
I know that.
You're going to take over.
You're going to be the Don.
If what I think has happened, has happened,
I'm leaving here tonight.
I give you complete power.
Over Fredo and his men. Rocco, Neri, everyone.
I'm trusting you with the lives of my wife and my children,
the future of this family.
If we catch these guys do you think we'll be able to find out who's backing them?
MICHAEL: We're not gonna catch them.
Unless I'm very wrong, they're dead already.
They were killed by somebody close to us.
Inside.
Very, very frightened that they botched it.
What about your people Rocco and Neri?
You don't think that they had something to do with this.
You see...
All our people are businessmen.
Their loyalty is based on that.
One thing I learned from Pop
was to try to think as people around you think.
And on that basis, anything is possible.
(SCREAMING)
Mike, they're dead! Right outside my window!
I want to get out of here. They're lying there dead!
(SCREAMING)
(DOGS BARKING)
MAN: Over here! There's two of them.
Looks like they were hired out of New York. I don't recognize them.
You won't get anything out of them now.

Where's Mike?
Rocco.
(WHISPERING) Anthony,
everything is going to be all right. Try to sleep.
Did you like your party?
I got lots of presents.
MICHAEL: I know.
Did you like them?
Yeah. I didn't know the people who gave them to me.
Hmm. Well, they were friends.
Did you see my present for you?
MICHAEL: It was on my pillow.
Anthony, I'm going to be leaving very early tomorrow.
Will you take me?
MICHAEL: No, I can't, Anthony.
Why do you have to go?
Because I have to do business.
I could help you.
I know.
Some day you will.

Michael, anything. What can I do?
Settle these troubles with the Rosato brothers.
Mike, I don't understand. I don't...
Look, I don't have your brain for big deals.
But this is a street thing.
That Hyman Roth in Miami. That...
He's backing up those sons-of-bitches.

Then why... Why do you ask me to lay down to them, Mike?
It was Hyman Roth that tried to have me killed.

Let's get 'em all now, while we got the muscle.

First Clemenza took it over.
Now you.
My father taught me many things here.
He taught me in this room.
He taught me, "Keep your friends close,
"but your enemies closer."
If Hyman Roth sees that I interceded in this,
in the Rosato brothers' favor,
he'll think his relationship with me is still good.
(BOTH SPEAKING ITALIAN)
That's what I want him to think.
I want him relaxed and confident in our friendship.

I do remember that she was laughing.
We'd done it before,
and I know that I could not have hurt that girl.
This girl has no family.
Nobody knows that she worked here.
It'll be as though she never existed.
All that's left is our friendship.
KAY: Yes?
I'm sorry, Mrs. Corleone, we're not to let you through.
I'm just going to the market.
Well, if you'll just give us a list,
we'll pick up anything you want.
Whose orders are these?
Mr. Hagen's, ma'am. He's coming over here now.
All right, well, I'm just goin' to have to speak with Mr. Hagen.
I wanted to explain, but I had business in Carson City.
Now, this is Michael's request for your safety.
Now, we can send out for anything you need.
I see. So I'm supposed to stay in my house?
No, within the compound will be fine.
Tom, I was going to take the children to New England next week.
That's off.
KAY: Am I a prisoner? Is that it?
TOM: That's not the way we look at it, Kay.
KAY: All right. Come on, kids.
We're going back to the house.
TOM: Joe.
BOY: Cuba, Cuba!
(KIDS CLAMORING)

PRESIDENT: Most respected gentlemen.
(TRANSLATOR REPEATS IN SPANISH)
PRESIDENT: Allow me to welcome you to the city of Havana.
(TRANSLATING)
I want to thank this distinguished group of American industrialists
(TRANSLATOR TRANSLATING)
for continuing to work with Cuba
(TRANSLATOR TRANSLATING)
for the greatest period of prosperity
(TRANSLATOR TRANSLATING)

I would like to take this opportunity to thank United Telephone and Telegraph
for their lovely Christmas gift.
(TRANSLATOR TRANSLATING)
A solid gold telephone.
(TRANSLATOR TRANSLATING)
Perhaps you gentlemen would like to look at it.
(TRANSLATOR TRANSLATING)
GUEST 1: Mr. President? Yes?
GUEST 1: Perhaps you would discuss the status of rebel activity
and, uh, what this can mean to our businesses?
PRESIDENT: Of course. Heavy stuff.
PRESIDENT: I assure you that, although the rebels
have mounted an impressive campaign in Las Villas,
(TRANSLATOR TRANSLATING)
PRESIDENT:...my staff indicates, with assurance,
that we'll drive them out of the city of Santa Clara
before the New Year.
(TRANSLATOR TRANSLATING)
PRESIDENT: And I want to put you all at ease.
(TRANSLATOR TRANSLATING)
We will tolerate no guerrillas in the casinos or the swimming pools.
(ALL LAUGHING)

and in a few minutes he'll let us through.
Johnny...

(REBEL SHOUTING IN SPANISH)

(CAR HORN BLARING)
(EXCLAIMS)
I hope my age is correct.
I'm always accurate about my age.
Make sure that everybody sees the cake before we cut it.
(CLEARS THROAT)
I'm very pleased
you're all able to come from such distances to be with me today.
When a man comes to this point in his life,
he wants to turn over the things he's been blessed with.
Turn them over to friends, as a reward for the friends he's had
and to make sure
that everything goes well after he's gone.
Not for years.
GUESTS: Hear, hear!
Well, we'll see. The doctors would disagree, but what do they know?
These are wonderful things that we've achieved in Havana
and there's no limit to where we can go from here.
This kind of government knows how to help business, to encourage it.
The hotels here are bigger and swankier
than any of the rug joints in Vegas.
We can thank our friends in the Cuban government
which has put up half the cash with the Teamsters, on a dollar for dollar basis
and has relaxed restrictions on imports.
What I'm saying is that we have now
what we have always needed...
Real partnership with a government.
Smaller piece.
You all know Michael Corleone
and we all remember his father.
At the time of my retirement,
or death,
I turn over all my interests in the Havana operation
to his control. Grazie.
But, all of you will share.
The Nacionale will go to the Lakeville Road Boys,
the Capri to the Corleone family,
the Sevilla Biltmore also,
but Eddie Levine will bring in the Pennino brothers,
Dino and Eddie, for a piece
and to handle the actual casino operations.
And we've saved a piece for some friends in Nevada
to make sure that things go smoothly back home.
Uh...
I want all of you to enjoy your cake.
So, enjoy!
GUESTS: Happy birthday!
L'chaim!
I saw an interesting thing happen today.
A rebel was being arrested by the military police.
Rather than be taken alive, he exploded a grenade he had hidden in his jacket.
He killed himself and took a captain of the command with him.
Right Johnny? JOHNNY: Those rebels, you know, they're lunatics.
Maybe so.
But it occurred to me, that the soldiers are paid to fight,
the rebels aren't.
What does that tell you?
They can win.
This country has had rebels for 50 years.
It's in their blood. Believe me I know.
I've been coming here since the '20s.
We were running molasses from Havana when you were a baby.
The trucks, owned by your father.
Michael.
I'd rather we talked about this when we're alone.
The two million never got to the island.
I wouldn't want it to get around that you held back the money
because you had second thoughts about the rebels.
Ah, sit down, Michael. Sit down.
(SIGHS)
If I could only live to see it, to be there with you.
(EXCLAIMS LONGINGLY)
What I wouldn't give for 20 more years.
Here we are, protected.
Free to make our profits without Kefauver,
the goddamn Justice Department and the FBI.
Ninety miles away, in partnership with a friendly government.
Ninety miles.
It's nothing.
Just one small step
looking for a man that wants to be President of the United States
and having the cash to make it possible.
Michael,
we're bigger than U.S. Steel.
Mikey, how are you? Okay?
Hi! Uh, Freddie Corleone.
(SPEAKING ITALIAN)
Jesus Christ, what a trip!
The whole time I'm thinkin' "What if somebody knows what I've got in here".
Can you imagine that, huh?
Two million dollars on the seat next to me in the plane.
Whoa. Excuse me.
No. It's okay.
You want to count it?
Mikey, what the hell is going on anyway?
I'm totally in the dark.
The family is making an investment in Havana.
This is a little gift for the President. Oh.
(SIRENS WAILING IN A DISTANCE) Well, that's great!
Havana's great.
It's my kind of town.
Anybody I know in Havana?
Don't know. Hyman Roth, Johnny Ola?
(SIRENS WAILING)
(QUIETLY) No. No, I've never met them.
Listen, Mikey, I'm, uh... I'm kind of...
Kind of nervous from the trip.
(STUTTERING) Can I get a drink or something?
I thought maybe we'd go out together.
I know a place where we can spend some time together. Okay?
Sometimes I think I should have married a woman like you did.
Like Kay.
Have kids. Have a family.
For once in my life, be more like...
Pop.
(SPANISH SONG PLAYING)
It's not easy to be a son, Fredo.
It's not easy.
You know Mama used to tease me.
She'd say, uh, "You don't belong to me."
"You were left on the doorstep by gypsies."
Sometimes I think it's true.
You're no gypsy, Fredo.
Mikey, I was mad at you.
Why didn't we spend time like this before?
You want a drink, right? Waiter!
Uh... Por favor...
How do you say Banana Daiquiri?
Banana Daiquiri.
That's it? That's it.
Uno Banana Daiquiri WAITER: Banana Daiquiri, si senor
and, uh, a club soda.
Senator Geary flies in from Washington tomorrow night
with some people, some government people.
I want you to show them a good time in Havana.
That's my specialty, right?
Can I trust you with something, Fredo?
Of course, Mike.
Later on in the evening we're all invited to the Presidential Palace reception
to bring in the New Year.
After it's over
they'll take me home in a military car, alone.
For my protection.
Before I reach my hotel,
I'll be assassinated.
Who?
Roth.
It was Roth who tried to kill me in my home.
It was Roth all along.
He acts like I'm his son, his successor.
But he thinks he'll live forever and wants me out.
How can I help?
Just go along, as if you know nothing.
I've already made my move.
What move?
Hyman Roth won't see the New Year.
(DOCTOR SPEAKING SPANISH)
Says you have to take it easy.
And he's gonna give you a prescription. He'll be back tomorrow.
I want my own doctor. Fly him in from Miami.
I don't trust a doctor who can't speak English.
WOMAN: Gracias, senor.
DOCTOR: Buenas noches.
Honey, go down to the casino.
Well, if you're sure you're feeling better.
Feel fine. (KISSES)
Play the bingo game.
Okay. Nice to see you, Mr. Paul.
Just make yourself at home.
My sixth sense tells me your brother Fredo brought a bag full of money.
Where is it?
You're pulling out?
Just want to...
I just want to wait.
MICHAEL: How do you feel?
(SCOFFS) Terrible.
I'd give four million to be able to take a piss without it hurting.
Who had Frank Pentangeli killed?
The...Rosato brothers.
MICHAEL: I know,
but who gave the go-ahead?
I know I didn't.
There was this kid I grew up with.
He was younger than me.
Sort of looked up to me, you know.
We did our first work together.
Worked our way out of the street.
Things were good. We made the most of it.
During Prohibition we ran molasses into Canada.
Made a fortune. Your father, too.
As much as anyone,
I loved him and trusted him.
Later on he had an idea
to build a city
out of a desert stop-over for G.I.s on the way to the West Coast.
That kid's name was Moe Greene
and the city he invented was Las Vegas.
This was a great man.
A man of vision and guts.
And there isn't even a plaque, or a signpost
or statue of him in that town.
Someone put a bullet through his eye.
No one knows who gave the order.
When I heard it, I wasn't angry.
I knew Moe, I knew he was headstrong.
Talking loud, saying stupid things.
So when he turned up dead,
I let it go.
And I said to myself,
(SNAPS FINGERS)
"This is the business we've chosen."
I didn't ask
who gave the order,
because it had nothing to do with business.
That two million in a bag in your room...
I'm going in to take a nap.
When I wake,
if the money is on the table,
I'll know I have a partner
If it isn't, I'll know I don't.

This is Judge DeMalco from New York...
How do you do, sir? Fine, thank you.
Right...Senator Ream from Maryland...
REEVES: Mike, I've been looking forward to it.
Fred Corngold from UTT.
That Freddie does a mean cha-cha-cha so watch out later.
MICHAEL: Oh he does, huh?
All right, gentlemen, it's refill time here!
You might try some of the local drinks, you know.
Cuba Libre... Pina Colada...
I think I'll try one of those... redheaded Yolandas.
That you got! Con gusto...
MICHAEL: Johnny!
You don't know my brother Fredo, do you, Johnny?
Johnny Ola, Fredo.
We never met. Johnny Ola.

Gentlemen, to a night in Havana!
Happy New Year! MAN 1: Happy New Year!

FREDO: Right, huh?

Everybody stands. But it's worth it.

GEARY: I don't believe it already.

GEARY: You've got a bet, mister.
(MUSIC CONTINUES)

(CROWD EXCLAIMING) Did I tell you or did I tell you?
GEARY: I don't believe it!
That thing's gotta be a fake.
That ain't no fake, that's real.
That's why they call him Superman.
GEARY: Hey, Freddy, Freddy, where did you find this place?
Johnny Ola told me about this place. He brought me here.
I didn't believe him, but seeing is believing, huh!
GEARY: I see it, but still don't believe it!
FREDO: Fifty bucks, Pat.
Old man Roth would never come here.
but Old Johnny knows these places like the back of his hand!
Now watch him, he's gonna break the cracker with it.

I'm getting a real drink, because I can't...

you were an employee of the Genco Olive Oil Company?
That's right.
But in actuality you were a member
of the Corleone crime organization.
Uh... No, we called it the Corleone family, Senator.
We call it the family.
What was your position?
At first, like everybody else, I was a soldier.
What is that?
CICCI: A button you know, Senator, come on.
No, I don't know. Tell me.
CICCI: When the boss says "push a button" on a guy,
I push a button. See, Senator?
CHAIRMAN: Mr. Questadt.
You mean you kill people?
CICCI: I what? You kill people at the, uh...
at the behest of your superiors.
(INAUDIBLE)
Yeah, that's right, Counselor.

Yeah, Counselor. Michael Corleone. Right.

No, I never talked to him.
Mr. Cicci, could you amplify your answer a bit?
CICCI: Do what?
Could you expand on your answer?
I'm particularly interested in knowing, uh,
was there always a buffer involved?
Someone in between you and your possible superiors who gave the actual order.

MICHAEL: New York City.
CHAIRMAN: Would you mind speaking up, please?
New York City.
CHAIRMAN: Are you the son of Vito Corleone?
Yes, I am.
CHAIRMAN: Where was he born?
MICHAEL: Corleone, Sicily.
Did he at times use an alias
that was known in certain circles as Godfather?
Godfather is a term that was used by his friends...
One of affection, one of respect.
Uh, Mr. Chairman, I would like to verify the witness' statement.
For years now, a growing number of my constituents have been of Italian descent.
And I've come to know them well.
They have honored me with their support and their friendship.
Indeed, I can proudly say
that some of my very best friends are Italian-Americans.
However, Mr. Chairman, at this time unfortunately
I have to leave these proceedings
in order to preside over a very important meeting of my own committee.
But before I leave, I do want to say this,
that these hearings on the Mafia
are in no way whatsoever
a slur upon the great Italian people.
Because I can state from my own knowledge and experience
that Italian-Americans are among the most loyal, most law-abiding,
patriotic, hard-working American citizens in this land.
It would be a shame, Mr. Chairman,
if we allowed a few rotten apples
to give a bad name to the whole barrel.
Because from the time of Christopher Columbus
to the time of Enrico Fermi,
right up to the present day,
Italian-Americans have been pioneers
in building and defending our great nation.
They are the salt of the earth,
and one of the backbones of this country.
(PEOPLE APPLAUDING)
CHAIRMAN: I'm sure we all agree with our esteemed colleague.
Now Mr. Corleone, you have been advised as to your legal rights.
We have testimony from a previous witness, one Willi Cicci.
He stated that you are head of the most powerful Mafia family in the country.
Are you?
MICHAEL: No, I'm not.
CHAIRMAN: The witness has testified that you are personally responsible
for the murder of a New York police captain in 1947
and with him a man named Virgil Sollozzo.
Do you deny this?
Yes, I do.
Is it true that in the year 1950
you devised the murder
of the heads of the so-called "Five Families" in New York
to assume and consolidate your nefarious power?
It's a complete falsehood.
CHAIRMAN: Mr. Questadt.
Is it true you have a controlling interest
in three of the major hotels in Las Vegas?
No, it's not true. I own some stock in some of the hotels there,
but very little.
I also have stock in IBM and IT&T.
Mr. Corleone, do you have any interests or control over gambling and narcotics
in the state of New York?
No, I do not.
Senator, my client would like to read a statement before this committee.
Mr. Chairman... Mr. Chairman, I think this statement
is totally out of order at this time.
Sir, my client has answered every question
asked by this committee with the utmost sincerity.
He hasn't taken the Fifth Amendment, as it was his right.
so this statement should be heard!
(INAUDIBLE)
No. No, I'm going to allow Mr. Corleone to read his statement.
I'll put it in the record.
In the hopes of clearing my family name
and in the sincere desire to give my children
their fair share of the American way of life,
without a blemish on their name and background,
I have appeared before this committee
and given it all the cooperation in my power.
I consider it a great dishonor to me personally
to have to deny that I am a criminal.
I wish to have the following noted for the record...
That I served my country faithfully and honorably in World War Two
and was awarded the Navy Cross
for actions in defense of my country.
That I have never been arrested or indicted for any crime what-so-ever.
That no proof linking me to any criminal conspiracy
whether it is called Mafia or Cosa Nostra
or whatever other name you wish to give
has ever been made public.
I have not taken refuge behind the Fifth Amendment,
although it's my right to do so.
I challenge this committee
to produce any witness or evidence against me
and if they do not,
I hope they will have the decency to clear my name
with the same publicity with which they have besmirched it.
CHAIRMAN: I'm sure we're all quite impressed, Mr. Corleone.
Particularly with your love for our country.
The committee will stand in recess until 10 A.M. Monday morning,
when we will produce a witness
who'll corroborate the charges that are made against you today.
At which time, Mr. Corleone, you may very well be
subject to indictment for perjury.
I remind you that you're still under subpoena, Mr. Corleone.
This court is adjourned!
(PEOPLE CHATTERING ANIMATEDLY)

You've got a big day tomorrow.
I've got you a new suit, new shirt, new tie.
I'm gonna shave you myself in the morning.
And you're gonna look respectable for 50 million of your fellow Americans.
Tomorrow... My life? My life won't be worth a nickel after tomorrow.
Come on! I saw this... I saw this 19 times.
FBI MAN 1: You've got a great home here, Frankie,

(BILLIARD BALLS CLATTERING)
That's great. Beautiful.

Ah, you'll live like a king. You'll be a hero.
You'll live better here than most people on the outside.
Some deal!
(SCOFFS)
MICHAEL: (WHISPERING) Alive.
Pentangeli is alive.
How did they get their hands on him?
Roth.
He engineered it, Michael.
When Frankie went to make a deal with the Rosato brothers
and they tried to kill him.
He thought you double-crossed him.
Our people with the New York detectives said he was half dead, scared stiff
and talking out loud that you'd turned on him.
They already had him on possession, bookmaking, murder one and a lot more.
The FBI has him airtight.
He's on an army base, 24 hour guards.
TOM: No way we can get to him.
We've opened it up to five counts of perjury.
What about Fredo? What does he know?
He says he doesn't know anything, and I believe him.
Roth, well, he...he played this one beautifully.
I'm going to talk to Fredo.
I haven't got a lot to say, Mike.
We have time.
I was kept pretty much in the dark.
I didn't know all that much.
What about now?
Is there anything you can help me out with?
Anything you can tell me now?
They've got Pentangeli. That's all I can tell you.
I didn't know it was going to be a hit, Mike.
I swear to God I didn't know it was gonna be a hit.
Johnny Ola bumped into me in Beverly Hills.
He said that he wanted to talk.
He said that you and...and Roth
were in on a big deal together.
And that there was something in it for me if I could help him out.
He said that you were being tough on the negotiations
but if they could get a little help
and close the deal fast,
it...it would be good for the family.
And you believed that story?
You believed that?
He said there was something in it for me,
on my own!
I've always taken care of you, Fredo.
(INCREDULOUSLY) Taken care of me?
You're my kid brother! You take care of me?
Did you ever think about that, huh?
Did you ever once think about that?
"Send Fredo off to do this, send Fredo off to do that!"
"Let Fredo take care of some Mickey Mouse nightclub somewhere."
"Send Fredo to pick somebody at the airport!"
I'm your older brother, but was stepped over!
MICHAEL: (SOFTLY) That's the way Pop wanted it.
It ain't the way I wanted it!
I can handle things, I'm smart!
Not like everybody says.
Like dumb. I'm smart and I want respect!
Is there anything you can tell me about this investigation?
Anything more?
The Senate lawyer, Questadt.
He belongs to Roth.
(SIGHS)
Fredo,
you're nothing to me now.
You're not a brother,
not a friend.
I don't want to know you, or what you do.
I don't want to see you at the hotels.
I don't want you near my house.
When you see our mother,
I want to know a day in advance, so I won't be there.
You understand?
Mikey.
I don't want anything to happen to him while my mother's alive.
(PEOPLE CHATTERING SOFTLY)
REPORTER: Here he comes now.
There's more people than at a ballgame in here.
(LAUGHING)
Hey, there's Willi Cicci!
MAN: Frankie Five-Angels...
CHAIRMAN: This committee will come to order!
State your name, please.
PENTANGELI: Frank Pentangeli.
CHAIRMAN: And where were you born?
PENTANGELI: Partinico, it's outside of Palermo.
And where do you live now?
I live in an army barracks with the FBI guys.
(PEOPLE LAUGHING)
We have here, finally, a witness that will further testify
to Michael Corleone's rule of a criminal empire
that controls all gambling in this country...and perhaps another country.
This witness has had no buffer
between himself and Michael Corleone.
He can corroborate our charges on enough counts
for us to recommend a charge of perjury against Michael Corleone.
Senator. Thank you, Chairman.
SENATOR: Mr. Pentangeli.
Were you a member of the Corleone family?
Did you serve under Caporegime, Peter Clemenza,
and under Vito Corleone, also known as the Godfather?
I, uh, I never knew any Godfather.
(PEOPLE MURMURING)
I have my own family, Senator.
QUESTADT: Mr. Pentangeli, you, uh...
You are contradicting your own sworn statement
that you previously made to me and signed.
I ask you again, sir, here and now under oath...
were you at any time a member of a crime organization
led by Michael Corleone?
I don't know nothing about that!
Oh!
I was in the olive oil business with his father
but that was a long time ago. That's all.
We have a sworn affidavit.
We have it.
Your sworn affidavit, that you murdered
on the orders of Michael Corleone.
Do you deny this confession,
and do you realize what will happen as a result of your denial?
Look, the FBI guys, they promised me a deal
so I made up a lot of stuff about Michael Corleone,
'cause that's what they wanted.
(STUTTERS) But it was all lies.
Uh... Everything!
They kept saying, uh,
"Michael Corleone did this" and "Michael Corleone did that".
So I said, uh, "Yeah, sure. Why not?"
Mr. Corleone, would you
kindly identify the gentleman sitting to your left?
I can answer that.
His name is Vincenzo Pentangeli.
SENATOR 2: Is he related to the witness?
He is, I believe, his brother.
Will he come forward and be sworn, sir?
Sir, this man doesn't understand English.
He came at his own expense to aid his brother in this time of trouble.
He's not under subpoena
and his reputation in his own country is impeccable.
QUESTADT: Are you saying he knows nothing about these matters?
To my knowledge, nothing.
I'm going to find out what happened!
All right, this committee is now adjourned.
The witness is excused.
TOM: Senator!
Senator! This committee owes an apology!
This committee owes an apology. Apology, Senator!
(SPEAKING ITALIAN)
Michael, excuse me.
Hello, darling.
The children are outside. We're going.
What do you mean going? We're all gonna leave tomorrow.
Uh, Rocco?
I'll be in my room, Mike.
Michael, I'm not going back to Nevada.
I brought the children to say goodbye to you.
I want you to know, I'm very happy for you.
I suppose I always knew you were too smart to let any of them beat you.
Why don't you sit down?
No, no, I'm not going to stay long.
There are some things I'd like to talk to you about.
Some things that have been on my mind,
changes I want to make.
I think it's too late for changes, Michael.
I promised myself, I wasn't going to say anything and now...
MICHAEL: What do you mean, "too late"?
What really happened with Pentangeli, Michael?
His brother came and helped him.
KAY: I didn't even know he had a brother.
And where is he now?
He's on a plane, back to Sicily.
All he had to do was show his face.
It was between the brothers, Kay.
I had nothing to do with it.
(GIGGLING)
MICHAEL: I don't want you going! Not you, not the kids. No.
You're my wife, they're my children.
I love you and won't allow it.
Michael, you say you love me,
and then you talk about allowing me to leave!
Listen, there are things that have been going on for years
between men and women that will not change. Michael, you're blind.
You've become blind, Michael! Blind to what?
Look what's happened to us.
My, God! Look what's happened to our son, Michael! Nothing's happened to him.
Don't tell me nothing's... MICHAEL: Anthony's fine!
Anthony is not fine! I don't want to hear about it.
You will hear about it. Anthony's friends... I don't want to hear about it.
MICHAEL: I don't want to hear about it! ...are your button men!
Over!
At this moment I feel no love for you at all.
I never thought that would ever happen,
but it has.
Kay...
We're leaving tomorrow.
Kay, why don't you take the kids back to their room?
Michael, you haven't heard me.
Kay, what do you want from me?
Do you expect me to let you go?
Do you expect me to let you take my children from me?
Don't you know me? Don't you know that that's an impossibility?
That, that could never happen.
That I'd use all my power to keep something like that from happening?
Don't you know that?
Kay...
In time,
you'll feel differently.
You'll be glad I stopped you now.
I know that.
I know you blame me for losing the baby.
Yes.
I know what that meant to you.
I'll make it up to you, Kay.
I swear I'll make it up to you. I'll...
I'm going to change.
I'll change. I've learned that I have the strength to change.
Then you'll forget about this miscarriage
and we'll have another child.
And we'll go on, you and I.
We'll go on.
(GROANS)
Oh, Michael!
Michael, you are blind.
It wasn't a miscarriage.
It was an abortion.
An abortion, Michael.
Just like our marriage is an abortion.
Something that's unholy and evil!
I didn't want your son, Michael!
I wouldn't bring another one of your sons into this world!
It was an abortion, Michael.
It was a son
and I had it killed because this must all end!
I know now that it's over.
I knew it then.
There would be no way, Michael,
no way you could ever forgive me.
Not with this Sicilian thing that's been going on for 2,000...
(SCREAMS)
(SEETHING)
You won't take my children.
(SOBBING) I will.
(BELLOWING) You won't take my children!
(SOBBING) They're my children too.
(BAND PLAYING)
(ALL CHATTERING)
Fredo, give this to Grandmother.

Hi, Al.
Tom? Can I speak with you for a second, Tom?
Tom, where's Mike?
Waiting for you to leave.
Can I talk with him?
Sorry, Fredo. No chance.
CONNIE: Can I see him?
He's in the boathouse.
CONNIE: Michael, it's Connie.
Michael...
I'd like to stay close to home now, if it's all right.
Is Kay coming?
No.
Fredo's in the house with Mama.
He asked for you and Tom said you wouldn't see him.
That's right.
Kids, why don't you go outside for a while?
Please, I want to talk to you.
Michael, I hated you for so many years.
I think I did things to myself,
to hurt myself, so that you'd know
that I could hurt you.
You were just being strong for all of us, the way Papa was.
And I forgive you.
Can't you forgive Fredo?
He's so sweet, and helpless without you.
You need me, Michael.
I want to take care of you now.
Connie.
Tom, sit down.
(INQUIRING IN ITALIAN)
Our friend and business partner, Hyman Roth, is in the news.
Did you hear about it?
I hear that he's in Israel.
Mmm-hmm.
The High Court in Israel turned down his request to live there as a return Jew.
His passport's been invalidated,
except for return to the United States.
He landed in Buenos Aires yesterday.
He offered a gift of a million dollars if they'd let him live there.
They turned him down.
He's going to try Panama.
Panama won't take him.
Not for a million, not for ten million.
ROCCO: His condition is reported as terminal.
He's only gonna live another six months anyway.
He's been dying of the same heart attack for 20 years.
That plane goes to Miami.
MICHAEL: That's right. That's where I want it met.
Mike, that's impossible.
They'll turn him over directly to the Internal Revenue,
Customs and half the FBI.
It's not impossible.
Nothing's impossible.
It would be like trying to kill the President.
There's no way we can get to him!
Tom, you know, you surprise me.
If anything in this life is certain,
if history has taught us anything,
it's that you can kill anyone.
Rocco?
Difficult. Not impossible.
Good.
Why did you ask me if something was wrong when I came in?
MICHAEL: I thought you were going to tell me that
you were moving your family to Vegas
and that you'd been offered the, uh, Vice Presidency of the Houstan hotels there.
I thought that you were gonna tell me that.
I turned 'em down
I mean do I have to tell you about every offer that I turn down?
Let's do business.
TOM: All right.
Just consider this, Michael. That's all. Just consider it.
Now, Roth and the Rosatos are on the run.
Are they worth it, are they strong enough?
Is it worth it?
You've won. Do you want to wipe everybody out?
I don't feel I have to wipe everybody out, Tom.
Just my enemies, that's all.
Are you gonna come along with me on these things I have to do, or what?
Because if not, you can take your wife, your family and your mistress
and move them all to Las Vegas.
(SNORTS)
Why do you hurt me, Michael?
I've always been loyal to you. I mean...
What is this?
(IN ITALIAN)
Now, what is it that you want me to do?
Hey, Anthony.
Anthony, how would you like it if I...
How would you like it if I taught you
how to catch the really big fish?
Would you like that?
Okay.
You know, when I was your age,
I went out fishing with all my brothers and my father. Everybody.
I was... I was the only one that caught a fish.
Nobody else could catch one.
Do you know how I did it?
Every time I put the line in the water I said a Hail Mary
and every time I said a Hail Mary, I caught a fish.
Do you believe that? It's true.
That's the secret.
Do you want to try it out on the lake?
Okay. Okay.
What else have you got?
(SIGHS FORCEFULLY)
Everything's gonna be okay, Frankie, don't worry.
Did my brother go back? Yeah, don't worry.
He's ten times tougher than me, my brother.
He's old-fashioned. Yeah.
He didn't even want to go out to dinner,
he just wanted to go straight home.
That's my brother!
There's nothing could get him away from that two-mule town.
He could have been big here. He could have had his own family.
Tom,
what do I do now?
Frankie.
You were always interested in politics and history.
I remember you talking about Hitler back in '33.
Yeah, I still read a lot.
I get good stuff in there.
You were around the old-timers,
who dreamed of how the families should be organized,
basing them on the old Roman legions,
and call 'em "regimes," the "capos" and "soldiers".
And it worked.
Yeah, it worked.
Those were the great old days, you know.
We was like the Roman Empire.
The Corleone family was like the Roman Empire.
Yeah,
it was once.
Frankie.
When a plot against the Emperor failed
the plotters were always given a chance
to let their families keep their fortunes.
Right?
Yeah, but only the rich guys, Tom.
The little guys, they got knocked off
and all their estates went to the Emperors.
Unless they went home and they killed themselves,
then nothing happened.
And their families...
Their families were taken care of, Tom.
That was a good break, a nice deal.
Yeah.
They, uh, they went home
and sat in a hot bath
opened up their veins
and bled to death.
And sometimes they had a little party before they did it.
Don't worry about anything, Frankie Five-Angels.
Thanks, Tom.
Thanks.
See you, Tom.
TOM: Addio, Frankie.
Kay. You have to go.
So pretty...
Kay, please hurry. He's coming.
Anthony.
Kiss Mama goodbye.
Anthony, will you kiss your mother goodbye!
Anthony, say goodbye to Mama.
Anthony. I love you, Anthony.
Kay, please.
All right.
Mary, come here.
Anthony.
Anthony, please. Kiss me once.
(KAY SOBBING)
(BOAT ENGINE ROARING DISTANTLY)
Easy.
CONNIE: Anthony! Anthony!
He's here, we're going fishing.
No!
Michael wants to take him to Reno now.
Oh, shit!
Okay, kid, you have to go to Reno with your pop.
Come on, Anthony, I'll take you fishing again tomorrow, okay?
Huh? Okay.
Atta boy.
Hey, Anthony.
Listen, I'll catch one for you in secret. Huh?
All right, okay, good.
Okay, let's go.
Mr. Roth, you understand I'll have to take you into custody.
Yes, I understand.
REPORTER: Can you give us your reaction
to the High Court of Israel's ruling?
I'm a retired investor on a pension.
I went to Israel because I wish to live there as a Jew,
in the twilight of my life.
Hey, Frankie! Come on out, let's play some Hearts.
Frankie!
REPORTER 2: Is it true you're worth over 300 million dollars, Mr. Roth?
I'm a retired investor, living on a pension.
I came home to vote in the presidential election
because they wouldn't give me an absentee ballot.

Hey! Everybody, come on, pay attention. Come here.
This is my friend Carlo Rizzi.
My brother Fredo. Oh, you know my brother Fredo. Sure.
This is my stepbrother Tom,
and that's his girl Theresa.
This cute little thing over here is my sister Connie
I was tellin' you about, huh?
Say hello to Carlo. He's good-looking, isn't he?
Yes. (CHUCKLING)
Oh, that droopy thing over there, that's my brother Mike.
We call him Joe College.

Yeah. Go on. You help her, eh, Carlo. Sure.
Hey, what is that? Rum?
Yeah.
Sonny, come on, don't touch the antipasto until Pop sees it.
He's not ugly...
I say, what do you think of the nerve of them Japs, huh?
Them slanty eyed bastards, huh?
Dropping bombs in our own backyard on Pop's birthday.
They didn't know it was Pop's birthday.
They didn't know it was Pop's... (SCOFFS)
We should have expected it after the oil embargo.
Expected? Expected or not,
they've got no right dropping bombs!
Are you a Jap-lover or something, you on their side?
I understand 30,000 men enlisted this morning.
Bunch of saps...
Why are they saps?
Honey, come on, we don't have to talk about the war.
Hey, you talk to Carlo, all right?
Only saps because they risk their lives for strangers.
Oh, that's Pop talking.
SONNY: You're goddamn right, that's Pop talking!
They risk their lives for their country.
Country ain't your blood. Remember that.
I don't feel that way. SONNY: I don't feel that way.
Well, if you don't feel like that,
why don't you just quit college and join the army!
I did.
I've enlisted in the Marines.
Mike, why didn't you come to us?
What do you mean?
Pop had to pull a lot of strings
to get you a deferment.
I didn't ask for it.
I didn't ask for deferment, I didn't want it.
Come on, come on! Knock it off!
Come on, hey, Sonny.
Punk! Sonny.
Sonny, Sonny, sit. No, no, you go on.
Sit... Sit down.
Mommy, Daddy's fighting again!
(KIDS LAUGHING)
Go and show Carlo the tree.
(GIRL CHATTERING)
Nice.
Break your father's heart on his birthday.
That's swell, Mike. Congratulations.
That's right, encourage him!
Go on. Get me a drink.
Go on!
You don't understand. Your father has plans for you.
Many times he and I have talked about your future.
You've talked to my father about my future?
My future.
Mikey, he has high hopes for you.
I have my own plans for my future.
Did you go to college to get stupid?
You're really stupid.
He's here! Come on!
Come on. Come on.
Stupid!
