According to the book, it was strictly Don C's idea...

"The Don pondered the question until the next day. On Wednesday afternoon he had called Hagen to his home and given him his instructions. The instructions had consumed the rest of Hagen's working day and left him dazed with admiration. There was no question in his mind that the Don had solved the problem, that Woltz would call him in the morning with the news that Johnny Fontane had the starring part in his new war movie." [/b]
Damn! I've got to read the book. I am constantly getting trumped by you guys. Shows how an interpretation from the screenplay can definitely be different than what the original writer intended though. I wonder what percentage of those who watched the movies ever read the book?
