Puzo keeps referring to Corleone boys as "cupid-faced". Does anybody know what this means? Would I know if I were Sicilian or Italian?  Great book; I can't put it down, even though I hate reading, and haven't read a book for fun since I was a kid.

If memory serves me, I believe that Puzo only referred to Sonny as having Cupid features..... Correct me if I'm wrong, as I'm sure somebody will if I am.
But if Clemenza can figure a way to have a weapon planted there for me then I'll kill 'em both.

Actually, Puzo says that Michael didn't have the cupid features like the Don's other children.
