Ok, I guess i meant, Athena Aquilane. Its getting interesing now. Cross amd ehis bones, and Virginio just broke Omerta, NOW I'm getting interested.
What is a Brugglione?
Is it, Consiglier, Pezzonovante, or something else?
From what i understand...
Don-Domenick
Underboss-Giorgio
Hammer-Pippi
Bruglione??-Sallazzo? I know it's Virginio something.
What are Petie, Cross, and Vince? What are Gronevelt, and the Redfellow guy to the family?
Are the Last Don movies good? Are the're SIX tapes or 3? There's a LD1 and a LD2? What's the deal? Are they like the Godfather, where Puzo came up with a sequel or something?
I hear Mantegna is good in it.
What's Ld Movie about? And what's LD2 movie about?
Is one pre-1990, and one post-1990?

- Her name's Athena Aquitane. - A bruglione is a Baron. - Petie and Vicent are the sons of Domenico Clerecuzio, Giorgio's brothers, and Cross is their cousin, the Don's nephew (I think). Gronevelt is the father figure to Cross, the hotel-casino owner of the Xanadu. He also appears in Fools Die. - The Last Don mini-series is good, some people didn't like it, but I enjoyed it. I've never seen it on tape, just on TV so all I know about it is that it's aired on TV over 2 nights, usually a Sunday and Monday. There's no sequel to The Last Don as far as I know, it's just broken up into two parts. - Joe Mantegna is good in it, but I think Jason Gedrick stole the show. Kirstie Alley was convincing as Rose too, I liked her as well. I hope that's of some help to you Ricardo.  Liz.

Liz.What is a baron? I'm familiar with the Underboss, Capo Regime, Consigliere, Don, Button, Soldier, roles in The Godfather. Which one of these is most like a baron? Pipp's the nephew, and Rose is daughter, Cross and Dante are Don's grandsons. Too bad Ballazzo got knocked off. Anyybody else think of it as opposed to the Godfather. Giorgio is Tom Hagen, the Don's advisor. Pippi is Michael Corleone, he goes to Sicily for two years. Dom is Vito, Don. Petie and Vincent could be either Fontane and Fredo, or Clemenza/Tessio or Rocco/Neri. Rose is Connie, mad that her husband was killed. Pipp's son Cross is Michael's son Anthony, reluctant to join the Family. Dante is Rose's son, Victor Rizzi, but he makes more sense as Sonny's son Vincent Mancini, he takes pride in his killings, he makes rookie mistakes, he doesn't know when to shut up. Silvio is Sonny, killed in the war. Ballazzo is Clemenza/Pentangelli, the Capo who snitched and was knocked off. Boz, Claudia, Athena, and such could be the Fontane/Lucy/Nino/Deanna subplot. Governor Wavven could be Senator geary. Gronevelt could be Genco. Redfellow is Sollozzo, the drug man. It matches up pretty good.
