In the movie Godfather 1 the first 30 minutes or so takes place during Connie's wedding, during which many of the main characters of the movie appear. Name all of the characters who had scenes during the wedding that were not alive at the very end of the movie. Tell me their screen name and how they were killed and by who and for what...

For the average GF fan this has a difficulty factor of around 8 out of a possible 10. For semi expert fans like myself it is fairly easy but does require some thought to make sure the four part answers of who, how,why and by who are correct. For the guys over in the huge Godfather Forum I use to post at (as Wilheim) it would have been answered in about five minutes or less.

A good example of a prominent character killed during the movie who is not part of the answer is Moe Green - Green had a key but still kind of a small part in the GF1, Moe was not at the wedding that we know of, meaning he wasn't in any wedding scenes in the actual movie. Moe was murdered in Las Vegas while getting a massage (shot in the eye) by a nameless Corleone family hit man on orders from Michael Corleone because he wouldn't sell his share of the hotel the family had money and the new look Fredo invested in.


Sonny Corleone, gunned down by several Tattaglia/Barzini alliance (really Barzini) hit men at the toll booth in order to soften up the Corleones and bring an end to the costly 5 families war of 1946.

Barzini-picked off on the courthouse steps by the fake cop. Loved him at the wedding when he grabbed the camera and ripped out the film.

Luca is correct.

Luca Brazzi garroted in Bruno Tattaglia's restaurant during a meeting with Sollozo where Sollozo stabbed a stilleto thru Luca's hand while Bruno held it to the bar and the killer snuck up from behind and garroted the fearsome Brazi. Brazi was killed as a precaution before the Don was shot because he was the most feared soldier in the Corleone family and would have been very dangerous if at large with the knowledge that his beloved Don was near death at the hands of Sollozzo and the Tattaglias (secretly at the time led by Barzini). One of the most remarkable and famous murder scenes in movie history where just one person was killed. Same can be said of the scene where Sonny is machined gunned at the toll booth.

Barzini

Murdered by up and coming Corleone enforcer Al Nieri on the church steps while Nieri was disquised as a cop because it was Barzini all along who was behind Sollozo and the Tattaglias and ultimately responsible for the attempt on the Don's life and Sonny's death also.


Vito Corleone is correct, died of natrual causes while tending his garden and playing with his toddler aged grandson. Another amazing scene and great acting by Brando.

Carlo, Connie's husband, was killed for setting up Sonny at the toll booth. He's stangled in the front seat of the car after Michael convined him that he was going to let him get away with what he had done because he was his sister's husband.

Correct on Carlo Rizzi

Garroted by Clemenza on orders from Michael in the front seat of a car he thought was going to take him to the airport where he would fly to Vegas and join his wife. He had to pay for the treachery of letting Barzini talk him into setting up Sonny by staging the second violent fight with Connie.

Fredo is incorrect - he was killed in GF2 and played a major role in that entire movie only to be killed towards the end by Rocco Lampone on orders from Michael in small boat on Lake Tahoe while supposedely fishing, Fredo betrayed Michael and gave information to Johhny Ola that almost got Michael and Kay killed in the machine gunned bedroom scene early in GF2...

Still one more from GF1 wedding.


Whalewager is correct with the Johnny Ola question both Ola and Corrado Soprano from HBO's mega hit series The Sopranos were both played by veteran character acter Dominic Chianese.
