Asking for a favour?



Alright the opening scene of one of the best movies of all time where Vito "The Don" Corleone is pondering the many favours that he is being asked on the day of daugther's wedding. Also in this scene is Tom Hagen who is the Corleone family lawyer and consigliere. The Don or known to everyelse as "The Godfather" is taking these requets because "no Sicilian can refuse a request on his daughter's wedding day".
