...if you look at that scene again, you´ll see how it is the climax towards which no small part of the film has been growing: Corleone´s doubts and remorses, his approach to the Catholic Church, his change when he meets the Pope-to-be (Raf Vallone), his confession and absolution..., and how then, when he hints a possibility of redemption, everything goes downhill, with his past life´s errors chasing him mercilessly, and hitting him where it hurts most, leaving him empty and in total despair.You say "yelling and screaming", while I say that his silent scream, those long seconds, which seem to never last, during which his whole inner world falls apart while he is unable to voice his deepest pain, until he finally shouts it out, is something you, or I, could try for a whole life to imitate, and never be able to do: its silence sounded so scaringly true, deep and moving that not even the dumbest one in the audience was able to make the slightest whisper.
Look at the drawing (Munch´s "The Scream") and tell me if you find it equally false and "movieish": maybe we see things so differently that we should simply agree to disagree.
