    This is a great scene, mayne, and includes a famous movie quote:
    Michael: Fredo, you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against the Family again. Ever.
    Damn straight. Stupid Fredo.

        Character actor Alex Rocco was terrific in his small, yet still memorable role as Moe Greene. He attributed doing this part in The Godfather as the key reason he had such a huge career as an in-demand supporting player in the wake of portraying Greene.
        You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.

          I guess by "made my bones" he means to have sex, that's why he compares it to Michael going out with cheerleaders, presumably meaning they were kissing and doing innocent first date stuff.
          While he's making his bones. AKA he's ****ing chicks.

                    I like that line better. It's funnier.
