How Don Vito Corleone CRUSHED his Biggest Enemy? | Law 3: Conceal Your Intentions...

- How did "The Godfather" Vito Corleone, surrender to his enemy, yet manage to not ONLY survive but come out on top as the one Victorious? What was the Secret that allowed Don Vito to outplay his most powerful enemy?
In the Godfather, Don Vito Corleone climbed his way to the top of the criminal underworld, But it came with a hefty price, being at the top made him a target, so He had some extremely powerful enemies. It was only a matter of time until they would try to dethrone him, and crush his empire once and for all. And sure enough that's exactly what happened.
While Don Vito was still recovering, the heir to the Corleone empire was taken out, his enemies were closing in. The end was very near, everything he built, all the years of sacrifice and hard work was about to come crashing down. Drastic measures had to be taken and fast.
The don knew this very well, but put his emotions aside and looked at his position strategically, and so utilized Law 3 of the 48 laws of power.
The law states: “Keep people off-balance and in the dark by never revealing the purpose behind your actions. If they have no clue what you are up to, they cannot prepare a defense. Guide them far enough down the wrong path, envelop them in enough smoke, and by the time they realize your intentions, it will be too late.”
Look, it's no secret that the top players of the game of power abide by a set of very different rules. Whether it's in the world of the “Godfather'' or in real life, the rules of the game are the same. So the better you understand the game, the better chance you have to win.
This is one of the most important laws of power, So listen closely as this is something you definitely need to know....

If only movies these days were this deep & complex...
Th is isn’t complex, he’s only promoting a book. A dog shit book at that. Misdirection by misinformation. That book stole from every book that did it better.
Saturday morning cartoons from the 80s had more complexity then most movies released these days
I have 2 daughters ages 12 and 8. When we are in public and they start arguing with each other, I sternly say to them "Don't EVER let anyone outside of the family know what you're thinking again!"
Good dad 👏🏽
Way to take something serious and make it something dorky
@@heiroot nobody asked you for your opinion, twatwaffle! Go play Russian roulette with an automatic
You should have pushed one of their heads into a box of ice cold water until the other started attacking you and then let go, stand over them with a menacing stare, and tell them : "La familia es todo"
@@behroozsalehi8571 na. Not sure that I want to end up using a bell to communicate with the rest of my life.
Never reveal what you're thinking outside the family. (Also within the family)
These adaptations of 48 Laws of Power to the Godfather are great! Lots that any one who works with ambitious people can get out of them, keep them coming.
Study Machiavelli, basically Puzo adapted these rules into the story almost like some Shakespeare as well
"Never tell anyone outside the family what you;'re thinking again." should be posted in all NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL locker rooms, so players learn NOT to give opponents "bulletin board material." Actually, this video is SO well-done, that it should be required viewing by all NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL teams.
I viewed pitching baseball somewhat like this. You don't reveal your pitching strategy to your opponents. If you pitch to opponents in pre-season games, don't reveal what you've got. Don't show your best pitches until the last inning or two, or even until the championship game. Make sure you've got the umpire figured out so he doesn't ruin you. Walk your strongest opponent, but make it look like just bad luck! Don't show opponents your pick-off move, send them fake ones at first! And so on! Hell, even fool your own coaches so they don't try to force their idea of a strategy on you.
Absolutely mate

Someone needs to tell that to Harry and Megan... Unlike their grandmother, the former Queen of England, they're likely too dumb and narcissistic to see the wisdom.
Sun Tzu The Art of War-- "All warfare is based on deception, Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away." This provided his forces with an invaluable strategic advantage. The 48 laws of Power and the timeless ancient wisdom of Master Sun applies to the Godfather as precisely as a hand fits into a perfectly fitted glove. Culture Mafia...I salute you.
When this movie came out i wasn't born yet!
My father gave me the book to read first.
What a masterpiece!
When I was old enough to understand what was going on, I read along.
I'm now 49 years old and to this very day, I can recite the entire movie word for word!
How cool.
I bet you can’t.
I saw the movie when it first came on tv, I think I was about 14 or 15. I didn't understand all of what was going on but I had read enough political thrillers to see the wheels within wheels.
When I was about 19 or so, I saw it again and fell in love with it, those few years of life experience gave me the eyes to see deeper. Then reading the book gave further insight.
Are you from Italian descent?
Did you write these sentences when you were still a child?
The most massive scene was Michael looking at his hand not shaking after giving Enzo a light. Absolutely Class 👍🇺🇸🇬🇧
The Godfather has these hidden gems 💎, the other one is where Michael first meets Apolonia’s father.. he could have run away, instead he apologized and emphasized he wanted to do things correctly
I thought he was looking at the family symbol on Enzo’s lighter …? But his hands not shaking while Enzo’s were did not only expose Enzo as a likely trader but also showed how Michael was cool in contrast during a clutch moment.
Michael was a war hero...he'd been tested under fire, many had forgotten that about him..
@@jermindygent.2526 Enzo wasn't a trader, he was just a civilian. He wasn't in the game. Your hands would have been shaking too in that situation
@@jermindygent.2526 Enzo was a loyal one. He is a baker who was visiting his Godfather only to stumble into a dangerous situation. Cant blame the poor guy
Don Vito was the best. He literally stopped and made the selfless decision to END the war right after learning of his eldest son and male heir's assassination. He knew that more bloodshed would benefit no one and that even upon finding out Barzini and the others backed the heroin trade, his personal need for revenge was a selfish need.
Vito knew he always did his best and he also does put his real family ahead of his mob family (even when the 2 clashed). Vito died content, retired, safe and optimistic for the future of the Corleones, while sharing a happy silly moment with his beloved grandson.
The lessons from The Godfather are endless, especially to men. What I learnt from this movie and its book are unmatched.
You didn’t learn anything from the GODFATHER. You learned from the Author of the book.
Too bad you didn’t learn to spell Learned.
If your not Italian, you oNLT learned the surface stuff, that was meant as window dressing for Anglo People.
@@warriorhudson2594 😂😂😂
@@warriorhudson2594 You are not as smart as you think you are. The capitalization of the "T" in "The" makes it clear they are referring to the work "The Godfather" and not the character the "Godfather". I gather that the meaning of capitalization is often lost on you (since you capitalized "Author" for absolutely no appropriate reason).
I'm reminded of a line from the book and movie "Harvey": "In this world you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." I would suggest sir, that you don't have the wits to be "oh so smart" so next time you should try to be pleasant instead.
@@SamBrickell apologize for going off topic, but it's cool you referenced the movie Harvey.
Anybody not familiar with that movie, would not recognise its inference in
"The Shawshank Redemption".
When Red is asking Andy about who Randall Stevens is. Andy says he's an aberration, a figment of my imagination, second cousin to Harvey the Rabbit.
👍👍
Barzini broke this rule and revealed his intentions with a single word... "Must."
At the meeting he should have said, "Vito, why don't you share your connections?" and waited for a response. Instead he said "Don Vito MUST share his connections!"
Saying "he MUST" means there was already discussions about this. It was decided. Vito now knew who set him up and why. Not being willing to negotiate is a potential death sentence in that life. (see Moe Green. Michael didn't ever want to buy him out. He just wanted to make a weak looking offer so that when he wouldn't negotiate, he had a reason to kill him and seize it anyway)
Yup when he used the word must Vito identified that as a direct threat which it was. Not to mention he was the only one in the meeting talking to the don so boldly and in return revealed himself.
Barzini made the same mistake that Sonny made, and spoke too soon. He played his hand just like Sonny did with Sollozo.
You do know the laws of power
When there was mistakes made by guys in the movie?
@@thalessilva1 yes. Sometimes writers have a character make a critical mistake, that another eagle-eyed character picks up on, even if we the audience don't catch it at the time. In other words, brilliant writing, that you could go back and watch again
Barzinni was too anxious to be the top Don. That's why he slipped.
Vito Corleone and Barzini both played by this rule.
It's why Barzini won. And why Michael survived.
Man listening to this confirms what I always think about myself and that's I talk too much
The Godfather is by far my favorite novel. I wish he would have expanded his universe with a few more books about the Corleone family.
He did write ✍️ manuscripts and ghosts 👻 authors followed up
Vito definitely was a smart man
Vito was not a man. He was a figment of a man’s imagination. Sorry to bust your bubble, but it needed busting.❤
@@warriorhudson2594 oh wow you don't think I already know that you moron I have known that for many years that Vito is a character 🤣😂😆
I felt that Vito gave the idea to Micheal on how he should attack the 5 families but Michael also came up with that attack because he was in the Military. If you noticed when the swat team or military does an attack on their enemies, if multiple of them they hit them all at the same time.
The hits were definitely military operated mob style. I agree there. Michaels timing was surgical. The strategy was a lot to do with Vito but Michael was intelligent enough to take it from there and execute it successfully.
As vicious as ruthless and as smart as Sonny was he wasn’t as smart or capable as Michael.
In fact I think Sonny would have been very impressed with Michael.
@@Predators--cz2fb I think Sonny was very impressed with Michael when he came up with taking out Sollozo and the chief of the police.
Exactly
Much is revealed and helps explain The Godfather trilogy in the book Family Corleone written by Ed Falco. It is a prequel to The Godfather describing Vito’s rise to power in New York with a young family. Emilio Barzini was a prime player during these years. If you’re a Godfather fan, this book is a must read.
@ michaella
You tell them 👏
Manuscripts were 👻 👽 ghost written
As follow ups
Aren’t you tired of making such great videos?
Vito used the significant phrase "As long as I am responsible for the actions of my family, I wil notl break the piece we have made here today"
Yup, im surprised Barzini didnt pick this up.....or maybe he did and thats why Michael almost got killed in that hit that took Appolonias life.
I never understood something about Don Barzzinni not suspecting michael, The guy got the balls to kill his man Sollazzo and a Captain Mcluskey, now sunny his brother was killed so he has even more reasons for revenge, but Barzzini somehow believed michael would just return quietly and put everything to rest??? I don't know.
Barzini's fatal error: never underestimate your adversaires.
Screw the Notion of The godfather. Mobster’s are loser, slimy, criminals and are completely selfish, self-centered pozzo.
No one truly viewed Michael as a weakling in the correct defenition. For them, Michael was a 'good boy', who won't get his hands dirty. The Sollozzo thing, they would consider, was an act of self-defence.
Also when Barzini's men started to take over Tessio's territory step by step, Michael ordered not to retaliate. A perfect smoke screen was created and even Barzini, the smartest of the snakes, failed to see through it.
They thought Michael was a ‘Good kid’ and wasn’t experienced enough to challenge the other four families.
The way they saw it Michael wasn’t bought up in the life. He was bought up protected from the life, a civilian and he killed Mclusky and Solozzo through the orders of Sonny. And as they was chipping away at the territories they was being ran out of NYC. They saw Vito dying as an opportunity to take advantaged if an un proven young Don and take the scraps of the Corleone family empire once Michael was lured to his death.
Obviously we know what happened after. I don’t even think Bartzini expected how cunning Michael really was through Vito’s planning.
Barzini was still playing by the rules he knew, that Michael was a civilian and neutral effectively. The corleones would want to protect him, and if he's neutral he's jot fair game. Barzini didn't expect them to flip the script and play by different rules as it puts Michael in danger. You can still see he's wary by how he has Michael frisked, but he still trusts his judgment of the situation and probably is a bit overconfident, the same quality causing him to reveal more of his hand than he should at the meeting with the other families.
I’d like to see them break game of thrones down like this
Precisely 😂
Currently reading The 48 Laws of Power, so I love these videos. Amazing.
After the meeting with Sollozzo-Don Corleone tells his son- Satino-“Never tell anybody outside the family what you’re thinking”-🌺Rest in Paradise to James Caan (Santino Corleone)who recently passed away🙏
Omg I never realized Sonny was James Caan. I loved him in Misery. RIP 💕
Excellent presentation. Machiavellianism all the way!
The scene outside the hospital with Michael and Enzo the baker is interesting for me because Sonny would never have thought about the simple but brilliant idea of "lets pretend we're armed!". Sonny's remark about the "I don't want Michael coming out with just his d*ck in his hand." proves this.
Excellent.
That Law mix was sooo good 😎...Culture Mafia Gang Gang...Like the kids say🤣🤣🤣 🤗✌
Another excellent video...❤️❤️
Wow, this is great analysis. Very enjoyable video.
Great Breakdown and the use and parallels to the 48 laws of Power is A Masterstroke
Thank You
'Michael Corleone' was a Veteran of the United States Marine Corps, an American Fightin' Man and War Machine!
the Don unleashed the Weapon X.
“But I'm a superstitious man. And if some unlucky accident should befall him - If he should get shot in the head by a police officer, or if he should hang himself in his jail cell - or if he's struck by a bolt of lightning, them I'm going to blame some of the people in this room, and that I do not forgive.” The bolt of lightning ie anything under the sun would have been a dealbreaker. Back to the mattresses because any underboss of one of the 4 families could have touched Mikey and framed the other. *And that I do not forgive.* Talking about an offer you can’t refuse. He offered them a piece of no peace. Behave. Honor the Code. Let my son live. They didn’t see the Devil’s advocate coming to sit a the head of his father’s table to settle his father’s business. Don Ciccio didn’t want the Vito Andolini son/boy to live because he one day would settle his father’s business as would Michael.
Thank you for saying The 4 Families.
I keep seeing people posting about Don Vito or Don Michael attacking the 5 families, not realizing the Corleone's are the 5th Family.
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!
These are good rules to follow especially in the workplace. Wish I knew these rules years ago, then I would be head of a multi million telecommunication company.

Excellent Voice over just like the first one who start the channel not the same but he got the energy and the passion looking forward for the upcoming Video 👍
The funny thing is, if you read The 48 Laws of Power, you would know that many of the rules are conflicting or outright mutually exclusive.
Exactly. Each one has a specific use case depending on the situation.
The godfather perfectly demonstrates something that’s very important in gangster movies: Criminal Empires are built on a foundation of sand, and it’s constantly in danger of collapsing.
The reason characters like Vito Corleone are so smart and such good manipulators is because they are constantly working, learning, and patching, hoping their empire of sand holds together for one more day.
As well as the fact that very few gangsters die in their own beds, they either die in a jail cot or in a pool of their blood.
Tony Montana in Scarface is another very good example of this.
Another awesome video
"Outstanding as always, when the next part coming."
Good stuff.
Vito's Character = 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ General 💥
Excellent advice.
Subscribed, great video.
Very good videos.
Great break down
Vito is pretending to be weak and offer peace, to find out who is really in plot against him. Who will oppose him and who not.
It was very smart move. He got information he needed and it cost him just bit of dignity.
Some things should never be taught to the General Public.
All power belongs to God
Awesome work

Nice video but what about the oranges?
What i really love is the whole strategy Vito used to eliminate his enemies and especially Don barzini ... He understood the situation (without sonny and Michael still in Sicily etc) and knew exactly what to do in order to keep the family protected first and then regain the power..,...
Great vids 👍
Thank You
The best breakdown of The Best Movie Ever Made !
Thank You 💯
Yo it's funny that all the "gangsters" today won't shut up. If they watched this they would realize why it never works out for them
When it comes to living a life of a gangster, It doesn’t work out either way.
A true gangster know not to live in war all the time. Sometimes to move the way of a gangster look to the family and see what you can fix and uplift to make them stronger. If you can only do 1 or the other and or none of them both then see what you can fix within yourself. A true gangster makes sure his family is “alright” not “better”. Let his real family or gang family better themselves or destroy themselves without getting involved unless you have too. That is why the people in the mob or in the cartel ask in a round about way. “Are you sure you want to join”?
So many quotes to live by in this movie, a real lesson for young men especially. Never tell anyone outside the family what you're thinking again. A man that doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man. It's not personal, it's strictly business.
LIKED/SHARED
If you listen carefully, people tell you far more than they intended to. It's what they're revealing in-between what they're saying, that really matters.
Emotions are a helluva drug, and most people are addicted to their feelings.
If the assassination attempt against Vito had succeeded, the Corleone family empire may have been finished. Having lost his oldest son, and intended heir of his throne, Vito needed time to get his son Michael back home safe. And he would have to have time to prepared Michael for leadership.
All this is soo true!!!
When Michael didn't say anything but just looked at Fredo at that creepy show! That takes SO much restraint!

Error alert: Sonny was shot in 1951 NOT 1948. The (in)famous shot heard round the world in the Dodgers-Giants playoff game was on the radio.
I love The Godfather movies, I watched many many times and will watch them again and again many many times, I also have the novel : in hard copy and soft copy and read them both!!!! I love how everyone writes about the characters in those movies and then analyise the characters etc.... even up to now, after 50 years.... but no one up to now, ever stopped to think and state that these are just fictitious characters, it is the author who is the mastermind who created the characters and the events and the story line, it is Mario Puzo who is the genius and the mastermind!!!!
Agreed. Concealing your intentions is so against human nature. That would take me some time to master. Im not a hothead like Sonny, but im definitely the type who would win over people with my honestly in a position of power. This video made me realize what a mistake that would be in positions of power.
Nice content I like it

The way they were seating
Bravo, Kurdish V1nce. You tube made me the same offer. I couldn't refuse. I didn't want to! These are great videos that unveil all the complexities and intrigues of the greatest novel and movie of all time. Vito Corleone suffered his misfortunes but learned from every one of them. By creating the meeting in effect he played the other Don's like a banjo. There is no greater power than perceived weakness. Barzini and Tattaglia flush with false pride that they had conquered the mighty Godfather, Vito Corleone. That is what he wanted them to feel! He uncovered the thoughts and motives of Tattaglia and Barzini. Smarter than all the other Don's, Vito and Michael outmaneuvered all the heads of the five families. Vito instructed Michael and Tom Hagen in every aspect of the conspiracy involving Barzini and Tattaglia. No aggressive acts by the Corleones. Slyly allowing them to whittle their empire into near non existence. Then annihilating their enemies in one crushing counter strike. Barzini and Tattaglis were mere sheep in a sea of hidden sharks. Great video.
He basically said his plan at the meeting, but with such ego no one saw it. He promised he was done with the war, but he wanted his son next to him and if anything happened to him I have a plan in place to take you out if I need to. He knew he would never get his full power back but he also knew when something did happen to him there would be a vacuum.

So in this theory, Vito was more vicious than Michael.
It was Vito's plan. He had ever intention on getting revenge after the meeting he knew Barzini was involved but he wasn't sure who helped him. He knew they couldn't of fought or killed Sonny that easily and warned Michael of a possible traitor
Hi CM,
Really good content so far… keep up the good work!
Was wondering if you could put together something on “what if sonny wasn’t killed”
Definitely 💯
What do you think? how different would everything have been?
Please please make more video on godfather. please you are the real GIGA CHAD to modern society.
😂
Sure
5:59 - A direct rip-off from Sun Tzu and The Art of War. While I have not read Robert Greene's "The 49 Laws of Power" my guess is that he has been heavily influenced by or borrowed directly from Sun Tzu and Nicolo Machiavelli's The Prince.
Hi Guys me again. Deleted scene Vito asks Mike what did his military ribbons mean; Mike says bravery; Vito says something like you kill for others implying you kill for others not for me. This scene where they visit the dying Genco in hospital. In essence telling Mike he needed to be with family. What u think?
It was in the script. That’s how he did it.
👍🏾👌🏾
I’ve had a person like this come close to ruining my life

Reversal of the law: b4 Vito said the famous quote to santino he broke it when he said to the turk his weakness 😂
I know one president ruling by the laws of mafia....the president of Uganda has mastered this laws of keeping power..this must be his movie...watching it every now and then.
Mr blabbermouth refusion isn't a ack of a friend.
People Need to rewatch The godfather because Vito Lost and the movie never show his war victories in the first one. It was about Michael. Pay attention Vito started a war by sending Luca Brasi after saying no to the deal. (by doing so he is saying you are not my friend. In their world.) Sending Luca Brasi was an act of war which they know. Which is way he got hit up for saying "no, you're not my friend" and treating the man like a foe. If he would have said no and left it at that
Maybe they would have just tried to continue to convince him instead he sent his most loyal hitman that started it all. First luca,Vito,and Sonny after losing the war.(He Copped ✌)He called a truce for Michael. Putting Michael in charge, Leaving him a target by his enemies, closest friends, and shame of losing a war. Which lead to moe green disrespecting him. Which is why Michael had to kill everyone. The acts of his father almost lead to the destruction of the whole family.
What is the background song's name?🙏
I've always lived My Life by those principles not just by power I always listen we're all actors some are better at it it's typical you go to a bar you have a conversation someone spilled the beans about their whole life with a couple of drinks
