If there was some stupid kid who walked up to my store, wearing a doo rag, pants down to his knees, a grill, and stupid glasses with a loose shirt asking ME for protection money I would laugh my ass off and tell him to f*** off.....the mafia on the is a different story
Love it. What's so great about the scene is it is both macho and civlized at the same time. Yes, all those gangland murders. But 10 guys sitting down for dinner, no women, most of them wearing ties, one of them (note the gun holster) playing the upright piano for fun. Come on. Don't you want to join them for that big Italian dinner-?
What really makes this montage great is that rather than just call them selves family like an organization, the gangsters actually treat one and other like family even during mob wars.
@Struckworld lol. I was trolling. This is one of my favorite movies, and this one of my favorite songs. I was making fun of trolls, but I accidentally became one. Don't take it personally :)

OMG this is the worst movie of all time... Why dont all of you stupid leftists watch something worth watching? Its terrible, dont bother wasting your time on it. It sucks.
@lpc315 you bothered wasting your time writing a rude comment to one of the greatest films of all time, now the teacher is calling and recess is over you better go inside
@TejMulen Read my comment again. Did I ever say you swore? No, I didn't. I merely said you were being extremely rude. And btw, your immaturity is pointless, so give up now before you lose whatever brain cells you have left, okay?
@TejMulen I find it amusing how almost every comment you have ends in LOL, as if you expect someone to find your insulting behavior funny. I pity you if you're so desperate to get a laugh. You obviously can't grasp the importance of this scene, even though someone was kind enough to take time out of their day to attempt to explain it through your thick skull, so take your trolling somewhere else. Opinions matter, but if you're going to be that cold about it, then no one will want to hear it.
@TejMulen Don't watch it cunt. You don't deserve it's excellence. Have fun with your soon to be King. That family is a bunch of theives and criminals that now sit on their ass all day eating bon-bons and drink tea, while they enjoy the splendors of other countrys' wealth.
@TejMulen It is the best gangster film ever made and possibely the best movie period ever made. The movie is 3 hours long, you can't base it off 1:30min of it. This is a very integral and important scene. Prior to this an extremely important plot point had occured. This scene is used specifically to release tension. It shows a break in events and a change in the character Michael is taking place. I also beleive Coppola uses this scene to allow the audience to recount what has happened. Watch it!
Wish I could come up with an arrangement for guitar for this piece (not a piano player)...I don't know what is, but every time I hear it, it just sounds so sweet on that slightly out of tune upright, I gotta replay it again. Remember the outro theme to "All in the Family?" This number's not as upbeat and flashy, but jazz honky tonk at its finest. If I ever heard someone play it live, I just might have to cry on that note.
@JCarabillo. You might like to check out my YouTube version (on piano). The music, with chord symbols is available. Maybe you can use them for a guitar arrangement.
From 1.16 are these supposed to be police sirens in the background or some sort of stringed instrument (cello) - or even a violin out of its case! Anyone know?
@rdr555 I love that part about the scene too, I find it unique to have a pianist gangster like that and the fun part about is the fact its Coopola's dad!
To watch this and then hear some kid with his pants on his ass wearing a doo rag call himself a 'gangster' really does make me laugh my New Yawk ass off!
@tropicalpimp you're right. At least gangster's had a bit of style and class about them in those days- you wouldn't see al capone wearing a string vest and jeans 10 times too big for him.
Willi Cicci is trying to learn the note lmao!
