the godfather – persephone's corner

Now we’re talking business, let’s talk business.

My father is no different than any powerful man, any man who’s responsible for other people, like a senator or a president. You know how naive you sound? Why? Senators and presidents don’t have men killed. Oh. Who’s being naive, Kay?

^{Vito sat in his study window, with his cigar and his drink,

until Carmella came to the door and knocked once before opening it. When

she saw Vito in the window seat, she sat alongside him. She didn’t say

anything. She looked at his face, and then took his hand in hers and

rubbed his fingers the way he liked, kneading the joints and knuckles

one by one as the last of the daylight faded.}

“For me, there’s only my wife and son.”

#can we just talk about the top right gif and the way Vito is looking at Carmela when she doesn’t know?#the way he takes her hand and bends to take her lips?#or how she genuinely smiles when Vito holds Sonny in his arms?#”FOR ME THERE IS ONLY MY WIFE AND SON”#and Carmela who prays for his soul every night #tbh they are the only valuable and faithful and respectful couple in this saga #Tom cheats on his wife just like Sonny. Michael beats Kay.#Vito have never laid a finger on her (in both the books and the movie) and always had eyes only for Carmela.#yes Vito hides things from her but she knows everything.#Of course she knows.#she was there from the start and saw him turning into the powerful and feared man we know.#a cold murderer #but a gentle husband.#i LOVE their relationship sfm #OTP: Que bella pera!
