Thanks TB.

Also. I just watched again Mafi's Greatest Hits which examines the life of Joey Gallo. In it the murder of Gallo's hitman Gilly is shown as a fish reminiscent of that Brasi scene in the Godfather. It also illustrates the unsuccessful garroting of Gallo's brother in a bar as illustrated in GFII. Surely, Puzo was aware of those real life events and used them as the basis for similar events in his novel. Agree?
