Silent scream and everything afterward: flashbacks to Michael dancing with Mary, Kay, Appolonia and then dying alone. That scene, followed by what comes after, was the key that unlocked my love for these movies. It was like the light was finally turned on, letting me see the pieces of the puzzle and how it all fit together. Amazing.
Some people don't like how the trilogy ends, I think it's the most fitting and perfect ending to any movie/trilogy in the history of cinema. I'm willing to bet that nothing will ever top it, either.
Yes, absolutely, i agree 100% with this post. That ending was unbelievably powerful, i didn't think i could be so moved by 1 scene, but it had me covered in goosebumps for the next hour after that. The emotion on Michael's face alone was just incredible, really terrific acting by Pacino.
A scene which nobody has mentioned, is the one in GFII with a young Vito played by Bob DeNiro... the bit where he goes back to Sicily to avenge his father's death... loved that part.
