Today would have been James Caan’s 85 birthday so today’s scene that I love comes from one of Caan’s best-known films, The Godfather.

This scene features Caan’s Sonny Corleone in all of his glory, congratulating Michael on his broken jaw and getting on Tom Hagen’s nerves.  Robert Duvall and James Caan were close friends in real life and that friendship definitely comes through in their performances as Tom and Sonny.
