I've always wondered, since this is the GF aficianado's website...which character would you like to have seen more of a back story on?

I would like to have seen more development of:
1. Rocco Lampone's story
2. Neri's back story as described in the novel
3. Clemenza, Tessio and Vito's early relationship (as expressed in GF2 but maybe more...say, the first major war they were all in).
4. Tom being welcomed into the family as a teen along with crazy Sonny.

What would you all have liked to have seen in a back story?

Fabrizzio in New York. under the protection of Barzini.

Anything to do with young Clemenza.

We got a glimpse of teenaged Roth joining Vito's organization in a deleted scene from II. I'd like to have seen how he developed within Vito's organization (i.e., running molasses into Canada, etc.), and how his relationship with Michael developed.

Can you imagine if Michael had told Kay that story while they were eating at the wedding? She would have been so scared she would have ran away on the spot and played no further part in the trilogy (come to think of it, things probably would have worked out better for Michael that way!).


Let me tell ya somethin my kraut mick friend!

Vito's/Genco's building of the political arm of the Corleone Family and why that was as important as anything Clemenza or Tessio were doing.


"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming

Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

I would love to see Clemenza and Frankie Pentangeli raising hell back in the day.
