The Godfather: Part III Page #5

What has Joey Zasa to do

with anything? Joey Zasa is a pazzo.

All right. You are what you are.

lt's your nature. Stay close to me.

Don't do anything. Keep your mouth

shut and your eyes open.

- And you do what l tell you.

- l understand.

- l have problems with the Commission.

- l know.

- You don't make them easier.

- lt wasn't my idea that this happened.

- Get out of here.

- Michael...

Yes?

- Now they'll fear you.

- Maybe they should fear you.

- B.J., what's up?

- The Archbishop just called back.

We've arranged some amazing things.

The publicity is phenomenal. You're the

new Rockefeller. A philanthropist.

- Sign here, please.

- Times do change, don't they?

My father hated foundations.

He loved doing it by himself.

Man to man. But we're different.

No different than any large corporation.

We control a lot of money with little.

Minimise taxes.

With no government control.

- Godfather.

- Andrew.

- Off to Rome...

- l wanted to thank you for everything.

- Do you want some breakfast?

- Thanks, l can't.

- How's your ltalian?

- Devo fare un po' di pratica.

- His father was a great lawyer.

- l know.

Didn't live to see him ordained. l did.

Did you ever see one of those?

Beautiful. l was so proud.

Let me walk you out.

lf you hear any rumours in the Vatican,

let me know.

No, Andrew has the true faith.

Don Corleone,

l need your help. And not just

to light a little candle.

My gift was to be able to persuade

people to give to the Holy Church.

Then Rome decides to put me

in charge of the Vatican Bank...

...but l was never a true banker.

Mea culpa. l trusted my friends.

Friendship and money...

Oil and water...

lndeed.

But these ''friends'' used the good name

of the Church to feed their greed.

lf money was lost...

...then l am to blame.

lf only prayer could pay off

our 700 million dollar deficit.

The Church owns 25 percent

of a large corporation: lmmobiliare.

You know the one l mean?

Largest landlord on Earth.

Real estate worth six billion dollars.

That's true.

And the Vatican vote

is necessary for control.

No, you're mistaken.

This isn't a question of one person

deciding. One deciding vote.

This is like any other company.

We have directors and very old rules.

The Pope himself

would have to approve you.

We've sold the casinos.

All businesses having to do

with gambling.

We have no interests or investments

in anything illegitimate.

The Corleones are prepared to deposit

when Mr Corleone receives majority

control of lmmobiliare.

lmmobiliare could be something new.

A European conglomerate.

Few families have control

of such a company.

lt seems that, in today's world,

the power to absolve debt is greater
