Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The first movie opens with Don Corleone conducting business during the wedding of his only daughter.

Answer: True

It is the wedding day of Connie Corleone and Carlo Rizzi.
Interesting tidbit: the wedding scenes are very brightly lit. However, those scenes are intercut with scenes of Don Corleone doing business in his office. The director, Francis Ford Coppola, intentionally made the office scenes dim and shadowy, a metaphor for the dark world of organized crime.
2. Before Michael takes over as "Don" of the family, what is Don Corleone's first name?

Answer: Vito

By the end of the first film, Michael is called Don Corleone.
3. The Corleone family got its name from what?

Answer: The town of Corleone, Sicily

When young Vito Andolini arrives in America, he does not speak English. The officer at Ellis Island looks at his papers and assigns him the name Corleone, the town he came from.
4. Which of the following is NOT one of Don Vito Corleone's sons?

Answer: Luca

Don Corleone's oldest son is Santino (Sonny), followed by Fredo and Michael. Luca Brasi is one of Vito's closest henchman. Although not a blood relative, he is fiercely loyal to the Don.
5. "The Godfather, Part 2" opens with which event?

Answer: Vito's father's funeral procession in Italy

Vito's father was killed for insulting the local mafia chieftain. The boss is afraid that young Vito will seek revenge when he grows up and wants to kill him too. But with the aid of neighbors, Vito escapes to America. The mafia boss was right to be afraid; Vito returns to Corleone as a man and gets his revenge.
6. To avenge the assassination attempt on Vito Corleone, Michael kills two men in a restaurant. One is Sollozzo, a would-be drug trafficker. What was unusual about the other man killed?

Answer: He was a police captain

Captain McCluskey broke Michael's jaw in an earlier scene. When Michael's brother, Sonny, makes fun of Michael for suggesting they kill a cop, Michael points out that he's a dirty cop, working for Sollozzo, a known drug dealer, and that the Corleone family has newspaper men on the payroll who "might like a story like that." Tom agrees and McCluskey's fate is sealed.

It's our first glimpse of Michael's talent for the family business.
7. What does Vito have in his mouth just before he dies?

Answer: an orange slice

If you're watching "The Godfather" movies and you see an orange, watch out! Besides Vito dying with one in his mouth, he buys a couple and then knocks over a display of oranges when he is shot. Then, in the second film, Johnny Ola gives Michael a Florida orange from his friend, Hyman Roth. Also, Fanucci picks an orange off a street cart and soon is shot by Vito.

These are just a few examples. Keep your eye out for oranges next time you watch!
8. Even though he's not a blood relative, Tom Hagen is considered part of the family.

Answer: True

Tom is a lawyer who acts as Vito's consigliere. Michael tells the story that, as a kid, Sonny brought Tom home and he's "been with us ever since."
In the beginning of "GF 1", Michael introduces him to Kay as "my brother, Tom Hagen." And after Vito gets shot and Sonny discounts Tom's feeling by saying, "...Tom, he's not your father." Tom's response is, "I'm as much a son to him as you or Mike."
9. Fredo tells his nephew a story about going fishing with his father and brothers. According to Fredo, only he caught a fish. What was his secret to catching fish?

Answer: He said a Hail Mary when he threw his line in

Poor Fredo, he was fishing and saying the Hail Mary when Michael's hitman shot him in the back of the head.
10. In one of the most famous "Godfather" scenes, a movie producer wakes up to find something horrible in his bed. What does he find?

Answer: The severed head of his favorite horse

Vito arranges this act of intimidation because the producer won't give Vito's God son, Johnny Fontaine, a part in a movie.
Interesting tidbit: What we see is not a movie prop but a real horse's head that they got from a dog food plant.
