In the deleted scene where Fannucci is getting attacked by the thugs, does he realize it's Vito standing by holding the box of groceries? 
He looks in that direction, and Vito is intentionally holding the box to cover his face, but does Fannucci recognize him? The DVD said that was to be a scene prior to Vito Killing Fannucci. As he was staggering toward Vito's direction, I couldn't make out if he said his name.
TIS Hi TIS,
Good questions. I always saw this scene as how vulnerable Fannucci was and he was basically out there on his own with no back-up. Young Vito saw this as an opportunity with little risk or no risk
