I have heard over the years that various people pop up in small roles in the first two Godfather films but I have never been able to find any of them.
The ones i'm looking for are...
- Richard Castellano in PtII, he's supposedly in the parade when young Vito is walking the streets.
- Sofia Coppola on the boat in PtII.
- Tony Lip aka Carmine Lupertazzi from the Sopranos in the wedding in PtI.
- The character of Mosca in PtII. He's listed on imdb but I don't see how the same guy in PtIII could be in II.
- Frank Sivero, who played young Abbanando in PtII, is supposedly in PtI somewhere.
- I've also heard that DeNiro may be in PtI somewhere as FFC wanted to give him a small part to influence him to come back for PtII.
It almost seems to me like if you were an italian looking person in the New York area alive in the 70's, you could claim you were an extra in the Godfather
But anyway if anyone knows the specific points where you can see any of these people in the films or knows of any other interesting cameos, any feedback would be appreciated.
