how can you be afraid, angry, sorry and devastated all at the same time? Cazale is a legend

The way he says “I’M smart!!”. Heartbreakingly pathetic. Amazing performances

The way he uses that chair to encapsulate his emotional exhaustion at all of this was brilliant

The way Fredo sits, his position and desperation, and the way we hear the sound of water. It took me a couple views of the movie to realize the symbolism. He is drowning here. The conversation is him desperately trying to stay on surface.

Michael warned Fredo not to take sides against the family. This was the final straw

IT AINT THE WAY I WANTED IT!! The way he turns from anger, to fear, to a frustrated mix of the two is amazing. What a performance!

John Cazale...only stared in 5 movies in his short career, but each movie was either nominated or won Best Picture. Hell of a run

Putting Fredo in that chair was a masterful stroke in directing.

John Cazale was a genius. Totally steals this scene.

Michael was so heartbroken when he learned about his brother’s betrayal in Cuba. They played Fredo like a fool, he was always an idiot. Almost got his father killed and almost got Michael killed.

The real Fredo finally reveals himself in this scene. The way he looks physically weak in that chair. He's so spineless he can't even sit up straight.

"I don't want anything to happen to him while my mother is alive." What's unspoken but implied in that loaded statement screams volumes.
