Hollywood godfather : my life in the movies and the mob
Russo, Gianni, 1943-2019
Books
Russo was a mobster with no acting experience when he walked onto the set of The Godfather and entered Hollywood history. He played Carlo Rizzi, the husband of Connie Corleone, who set her brother Sonny up for a hit. Russo didn't have to act-- he knew the mob inside and out: from his childhood in Little Italy, where Mafia legend Frank Costello took him under his wing, to acting as a messenger for New Orleans mob boss Carlos Marcello during the Kennedy assassination, to having to go on the lam after shooting and killing a member of the Colombian drug cartel in his Vegas club. This is Russo's no-holds-barred account of a life filled with violence, glamour, sex-- and fun. -- adapted from jacket.
