sad thing is... today there's not enough deniro type fathers out here... because everyday i see kids trying to live there life to be like sonny instead of lorenzo...a working man a.k.a. the real tough guy
iand talking to sonny like that was stupid not brave..sonny could have killed him and then where would his son c be?..huh?..theres a diffrence between being brave and being stupid
This was MY daddy! :-) A real fuckin' man, willing to lay it ALL on the line for his son. If I had yelled at my father like that when *I* was nine I'd be wearing DENTURES today.
DeNiro was letting him know him, his family, and his pride and dignity couldnt be bought. DeNiro wasnt a gangster in this movie, but he was as much of a stand-up guy and a real tough guy than any of the gangsters. Everyone is saying they cant believe DeNiro played a "straight-edge" guy so good, but thats what he does, plays the part. Hes a great actor. He can play any role. He dont have to be a gangster in every movie, but he sure does play the best gangster. Hes a stand-up guy in real life.
It's amazing how he can manage to comlpetely shed his gangster image just 2 years after playing one of his most well known gangster roles. De Niro is the man!
A GREAT scene. Regardless of who you think is right or wrong it's an amazing scene. I'm not even sure, I can see both sides about how you want to stay away from dirty money but on the other hand the kid earned it by brining people drinks and helping throw the dice it's not like he was out selling crack or something. DeNiro is great he can play an evil psycho like Jimmy Conway in Goodfellas or a great guy like Lorenzo here or the priest in "Sleepers"...Calogerol pissed me off...
Workin' hard may not get you to riches in a hurry.. but if you're always a stand up guy, do your job.. You'll have earned more wealth than any drug dealer or thug on the planet.
I really need to say thank you to my father more often.
This scene reminds of in hindsight...of the departed how Jack Nicholsons character tells leo's how his father if he knew he was in the business would come and kill him and everyone else...and he could do it. Lorenzo was like that in this movie. He was a stand up guy who while he wasn't going to make waves...if you fuck with his family?...hell if he and Sonny fought right then with no interference I would have put my money on Lorenzo...you don't fuck with a mans family.
The bad money has spread. It is now everywhere. There is no good money any more. When the government rewards the makers of bad money openly we are in big trouble.
Fantastic acting from DeNiro in this scene. First the rage(The workingman's the tough guy, you're father's the tough guy) then it switches to tenderness(It's not the same thing, people don't love him, they fear him).
Lorenzo was right..."The working man is the tough guy"
I know a lot of mafia / cartel bosses like to suck in and corrupt young minds but in this case Sonny was alright, despite his corrupt life ..he always had a special feeling for cee w/good intentions and always tried to keep him out of trouble...on top of that i think deep down he had respect for lorenzo aswell.
@Tusc9969 your rite. sonny never wanted the mafia life for cee, he was just teaching him street smarts. he did have good intentions. if it came down to it, sonny would have taken a bullet for cee. he was sonnys son he never had so ya
LMFAO...are you fucking serious...have you seen SCARFACE...did you not realize the beginning scene when he COMES FROM CUBA...that maybe he might not be italian...lmfao. Scarface has NOTHING TO DO WITH ITALIANS you fool. That is about cuba and latin america gangsters lol.
Actually, the original Scarface was in fact about the Italian mafia, hence the title, Scarface was Al Capone's nickname, and he served as inspiration for the main character. Brian De Palma would go on to remake the film many years later, giving it a Cuban spin.
@habs4evs scarface is cuban the fact that you've watched that movie and weren't able to tell that he wasn't italian makes me question if you have a brain your gay goodnight
such an underrated movie. Another DeNiro classic, his performance was awesome as well. Lorenzo was right in what he said about Sonny. Sonny was an okay guy, but he had 'wasted his talent'. Classic scene that always brings tears to my eyes.
@ShadeDizzle depends what kinda work "dizzle"...not everyone has to drive a bus or work in warehouses..those people really do deserve the best....people who think are hustlers are the biggest douchebags on earth..
The father was very brave for standing he's grown with Sonny cause he could've gotten killed. I like that cause you got to be willing to die for your believes.
@44eelz You got a point, Sonny respects the kid fot not snitching on him and his crew. But Sonny dosen't respect any one who disrespects him,so he will kill them He was holding back only because he respects the son, he was getting ready to get in his killer mode. Your right though, he does have a high level of respect for the kid.
get outta here b4 i give u a fuckin slap lol 1:10 Sonny gets soo happy and look at jimmy lik good job sonny hahaha classic and jimmy looks exactly like my uncle Carmine lol
the lead character is like anyone in real life - They don't respect him, they fear him, until they get fed up with that then they all turn on him and get rid of him. And that kind of life is supposed to be glamorous, always looking over your shoulder? No thanks
I kind of see it all relating to Machiavelli's advice in Il Principe (The Prince) about being feared or loved and that it is better to be feared as long as you don't become hated in the process
Yes thats true however royalty can win the approval of their people and have lasting reigns, e.g. Classic example the King of Thailand, 60yrs and loved by all, the guy is basically a god to his people. However crime figures will always have those who hate them as they would've fucked somebody over to get to where they are, no?
sonny and lorenzo are both tryna do the right thing and i respect both of them.. THEY MAKE THEY'RE PEACE IN THE END THATS ALL THAT MATTERS... GREAT SCENE!!
he's right.. mobsters/gangsters/triads, are losers... can get honest money for shit... the working man is the greatest... maybe the pay sucks... but hey, God loves ya, ya family safe and most of all, your chances of dying of old age is slightly higher...
@YashwehOfNazareth It's more than that. The working man is what keeps the gangster's world turning. Without the workers there would be no sky-scrapers. There would be no bridges and tunnels and roads. There would be no food to eat, no fancy cars to drive around in, no electricity powering the houses. Without the working class, the earth collapses. Hard work, strength, perseverance are what built everything great on earth.
ok so what if, just asking what if there is no GOD? than what?
love is equally shared by all people, besides the deranged. im sure there are killers who's family loved them.
dying of an old age is your goal? shitting in diapers, being put in a nursing home by you children, and watching your friends expire is not a well thought out plan IMO.
and your left with pay, nothing to leave your family, taxed to death and you worked till age 70....gee great life
@YashwehOfNazareth But then, people step on you. You get treated like some random douche on the street, you walk into a restaraunt? Some random guy just slams the door in your face on 'accident'
Mobster? He holds it for you, then dusts your fucking shoes off.
@YashwehOfNazareth What if there is no god. And depending on how powerful you are your family can even be safer. In my opinion the real mobsters are defiantly winners, money is everything next to women and good health.
Have you noticed that everybody who's ever been in one of those "Italian mob" films with DeNiro has made appearances in THE SOPRANOS. Cee's mom played Artie Bucco's wife.
