In the Godfather, Santino Corleone and Tom Hagen are shown as foil characters of Michael Corleone. Santino Corleone is hot-headed, quick, and violent. Tom Hagen is more of a slow person, he wants to deal everything after thinking it through and he uses his businessman skills to help him. Michael is between the two he wants to get everything done quickly, he is violent, he deals everything after thinking through it and he is calm. In the scene when they’re thinking of their next move, Michael is situated between his two brothers. This is a symbolic relationship to foil, showing that he is mix of both his brothers.
