Johnny Fontaine is in the Godfather's office.
He is crying and he says "Oh Godfather, I don't know what to do. I don't know what to do."
The Godfather jumps up from his chair, grabs Johnny by the wrists, shakes him vigorously and yells angrily "You can act like a man." Then he slaps him. And says "What's the matter with you? Is this how you turn out, a Hollywood finocchio that crys like a woman?"
The Godfather then mocks him by pretending to cry and repeating "What can I do? What can I do?"
Tom Hagen is sitting in the corner of the room laughing.
Fantastic scene.
But it often makes me cringe - for myself.
Must be something there, no?
