In the book The Godfather Legacy by Harlan Lebo, there are two photos (pages 186 and 187 of the second edition) of actor Angelo Infanti being prepared by an Italian makeup "artist" (I use the term loosely) for one of Fabrizio's deleted death scenes.
The ridiculous amount of stage blood they used made the whole thing look so over-the-top that I feel it was just as well the scene wasn't used. (But I think that in the final cut of the original film, GF1 suffers a bit by our not seeing the treacherous Fabrizio get his.)
If makeup artist Dick Smith had been brought over for the Sicilian sequences, then I'm certain Fabrizio's death scene would have turned out much better visually, as well as having Al Pacino not look like he had a soot smudge under his left eye while courting Apollonia.
Signor V.
"For me, there's only my wife..."
"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"
"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"
"It was a grass harp... And we listened."
"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"
"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
