11. The dinner Fight – The Godfather (1972)

In The Godfather, the dinner fight scene between Sonny Corleone (James Caan) and Carlo Rizzi (Gianni Russo) crackles with raw energy, partly thanks to Caan's improvisation. During the confrontation, Caan threw an unscripted punch and added personal touches like hurling insults, making the fight feel more authentic. This intensity underscored Sonny's fiery temper and the fraught family dynamics, adding to the film's reputation for gritty realism and emotionally charged storytelling.
