Frank's Final Scene


For years when I watched the film and I saw Frank on his knees there is a moment at 5.05 in the attached video where Frank reaches for Tony's feet I always assumed that was an act of submission or groveling like he was about to kiss his feet out of desperation. When Tony yanked his feet back quickly I had treated that like Tony was disgusted with Franks begging.

I just recently wondered was Frank making a last ditch desperate attempt to make a move on Tony, causing Tony to yank his feet back because he saw what Frank was trying to do.

Was Frank trying to do a sneak attack in that moment or was he about to kiss Tony's feet?

Manny was right behind Tony and he was aiming his gun. Nah, no surprise attack. Frank was pleading for his life.

Frank was going for an ankle takedown but Tony was ready for him
