...That line, the best of this episode, courtesy of Charlie Bluhdorn (Burn Gorman) in reference to the next film Bob Evans (Matthew Goode) intends to make.
Speaking of Matthew Goode, I thought this was his best episode, which is saying something, because he has led this strong cast from the outset. It was also Miles Teller's (Al Ruddy) best effort. Juno Temple also shone.
As I wrote last week, things that I had always read as credited to Coppola, or others, herein are credited to Ruddy. In this episode, I already knew that Gianni Russo (Carlo, who marries Connie in the original) was very much disliked, but he had some sort of juice and no one knew from where it came. It's not revealed herein either. So, anyway, I had always read and heard that it was James Caan's idea to actually throw him a beating in the scene wherein Sonny throws Carlo a beating in the street. But, we learn that this was a joint idea between Ruddy and Coppola. Great scene.
