I was watching this again last night and caught a Godfather parallel I never caught before.

Right after Lefty asks Donnie what he knew about "the life," Donnie replies "it's like the army, chain of command, etc..." Lefty turns around and laughs "the army, it's nothing like the army, my friend."


It just reminded me of part 1, when Sonny says "you think this is the army..." Maybe I'm stretching here, but it's something I never caught before.
