The Godfather教父 1972 Movie Script

NERI points to the "No Parking" sign.

The DRIVER turns his head away.

NERI:

OK, wise guy, you wanna summons, or you wanna move?

DRIVER:

(obviously a hood) You better check with your precinct.

NERI:

Move it!

The DRIVER takes a ten dollar bill, folds it deliberately, and hands it out the window, trying to put it under NERI's jacket.

NERI backs up, letting the bill fall onto the street. Then he crooks a finger at the DRIVER.

NERI:

Let me see you license and registration.

EXT DAY:

MOTEL BALCONY LAMPONE on the motel balcony spots a Cadillac pulling up.

It parks. A young, pretty GIRL gets out. Quickly, he returns into the room.

INT DAY:

HOTEL STAIRS (1955) CLEMENZA is climbing the back stairs of a large hotel. He rounds the corner, puffs a little, and then continues upward.

INT DAY:

CHURCH The Church. Close on the PRIEST's fingers as he gently applies oil to the infant's ears and nostrils.

PRIEST:

Ephetha...be opened...So you may perceive the fragrance of God's sweetness.

EXT DAY:

ROCKEFELLER CENTER (1955) The DRIVER of the limousine in front of Rockefeller Center is arguing with NERI.

Now the DRIVER looks up.

WHAT HE SEES:

TWO MEN in topcoats exit the building, through the revolving glass doors.

NERI opens up fire, trapping BARZINI in the shattering glass doors. The doors still rotate, moving the dead body of BARZINI within them.

INT DAY:

CHURCH In the Church--the VIEW on MICHAEL. The PRIEST hands him the infant.

PRIEST:

Do you renounce Satan.

MICHAEL:

I do renounce him.

PRIEST:

And all his works?

MICHAEL:

I do renounce them.

INT DAY:

MOTEL MURDER (1955) LAMPONE, backed up by two other MEN in his regime, runs down the iron-rail steps, and kicks in the door on Room 7F.

PHILIP TATTAGLIA, old and wizened and naked, leaps up; a semi-nude young GIRL leans up.

They are riddled with gunfire.
