Absolutely right - Brando could convey more expression with only a part of his face than many other actors could with their entire body. See also the scene where Tom Hagen tells him of Sonny's death (in the Don's study). Brando was absolutely a master of this craft.
And a great big welcome to Eddie Levine of Newport.
Signor V.
"For me, there's only my wife..."
"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"
"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"
"It was a grass harp... And we listened."
"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"
"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
