youtube/watch?v=ZhWT7vz8DAk Johnny Fontane: [discussing his problems] I dont know what to do, Godfather. My voice is weak, its weak. Anyway, if I had this part in the picture, it puts me right back on top, you know. But this... this man out there. He wont give it to me, the head of the studio. Don Corleone: Whats his name? Don Corleone: Woltz. He said theres no chance, no chance... [Meanwhile, Hagen finds Sonny and summons him] Johnny Fontane: A month ago he bought the rights to this book, a best seller. The main character is a guy just like me. I wouldnt even have to act, just be myself. Oh, Godfather, I dont know what to do, I dont know what to do... [All of a sudden, Don Corleone rises from his chair and gives Fontane a savage shake] Don Corleone: YOU CAN ACT LIKE A MAN! [gives a quick slap to Fontane] Don Corleone: Whats the matter with you? Is this what youve become, a Hollywood finocchio who cries like a woman? Oh, what do I do? What do I do? What is that nonsense? Ridiculous! [the Dons unexpected mimicry makes Hagen and even Fontane laugh; around this time Sonny comes in] Don Corleone: Tell me, do you spend time with your family? Johnny Fontane: Sure I do. Don Corleone: Good. Because a man who doesnt spend time with his family can never be a real man. [gives a quick look at Sonny and affectionately embraces Fontane] Don Corleone: You look terrible. I want you to eat, I want you to rest well. And a month from now this Hollywood big shots gonna give you what you want. Johnny Fontane: Too late. They start shooting in a week. Don Corleone: Im gonna make him an offer he cant refuse. Okay? I want you to leave it all to me. Go on, go back to the party. [a gratified Fontane leaves]
