Vito Corleone: [In Italian] Do me this favor. I won't forget it. Ask your friends in the neighborhood about me. They'll tell you I know how to return a favor.
Michael Corleone: In the hopes of clearing my family name, and in the sincere desire to give my children the 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 II and was awarded the Navy Cross for actions in defense of my country; that I have never been arrested or indicted for any crime whatsoever; 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 5th amendment, though it is my right to do. 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 now have besmirched it.
I don't know nothin' about that.. Oh -- I was in the Olive Oil business with his father but that was a long time ago that's all.

everything but the food wrote:I saw part III in the theater, and I swear the audience booed when the final credits rolled. This is after we went into hysterics when Sofia bit the dust.
Do you think III would have been any better if they didn't have to use Sophia as a last-minute substitute for Wynona Ryder, or if George Hamilton hadn't taken the Robert Duvall role?
I actually give Andy Garcia and Al Pacino a lot of credit for being able to stay in character while acting opposite such a complete incompetent as Sophia Copella. Lucky for her she's a lot better on the other side of the camera.

Was watching Godfather II today, and the Kay abortion line still gives me chills
I also like the scene a little later, when Kay is visiting the children, and Talia Shire is trying to get her out of the house because Michael is coming.
The look in her eyes when she sees him coming while she's standing in the door saying goodbye to Anthony.
Michael: "You're out Tom"
