This was a game we were playing a year or two ago.

Someone gives a clue describing a character, the next player guesses the character and gives a new clue.

The "fun part" of the game is to make your clues as cryptic as possible.

You wouldn't, for example, give a clue like "He was the Don of the Corleone family" or "He was Michael's older brother".

Anyway, here's an easy one to start with:

He was on the hook

Great game Plaw

Tessio

He should have used EZ pass

Sonny

He was the strong and silent type

Luca??

He likes flour

Is it Enzo the Baker??

He had a strange encounter of the equine persuasion.

Woltz

He tested the durability of the table

For the "strong and 'silent' type", Mig, I was thinking of Mike's bodyguard, Buscetta.

That's a slight problem with this game, BTW. Sometimes a clue could be applied to more than one character.

For "He tested the durability of the table" I'm gonna say Don Zaluchi, who banged on the table at the Don's meeting.

New clue:

He did nice work

I dont know yours but mine was incorrect, not that miniscule of a detail

so after someone gets yours ill repost mine

"Nice work" was Lou, Sollozzo's driver.
Clue: He did the "Tighten Up" in the Fifties (like Archie Bell and the Drells in the Seventies).

Clemenza (garotting Carlo?)

If so......

He was camera shy

Barzini??

Has a fishing theory

Barzini

He would eventually be known by the same name in the 70's as the sicilian message he discovered indicated.


Don Cardi

I'll answer Migs :

Fredo.


My question still stands.

He would eventually be known by the same name in the 70's as the sicilian message he discovered indicated.


Don Cardi

Fredo

Tessio (Abe Vigoda, as Fish)

A pair of leather pants would have completed her ensemble.

Grace Hamilton ( Bridget Fonda wearing Vincent's Leather Jacket)


He would have been better off with contact lenses


Don Cardi

Could've been Moe Greene....could've been the guy that Calo gave it to in the eye in GF III.

He was listening.

I was thinking Moe Green.


The answer to yours is Don Lucchese.


He would have been better off leaving the Canolli and taking a gun instead


Don Cardi

"Woltz is listening."

Yours: Paulie?

If so, He would have paired nicely with Ichabod Crane

Rocco??

Paid for a camera

Mine was not Paulie nor Rocco, but I didn't get your answer right, so you keep the turn Plaw.

( the answer to yours Mig, is Sonny)


Is the answer to your last one Kartoum?


Don Cardi

Yup, Khartoum. Thought I would stump you on that one.

For her, size mattered.

I was thinking Paulie or Rocco for yours, DC, but I figured paulie 'cause he could've used a gun, while Rocco already had one.

Lucy Mancini

She was concerned about his ears

Lucy??

Good with a knife

Good with a knife......Sollozzo.

I don't see the Lucy/ears connection though

Senza?

I posted Lucy answering your size matter question.

Maybe not the ears themselves but what you do with them??

Minor character from Godfather II

Connie about Anthony hearing what she wanted to tell Michael.

No one has answered my question correctly. So here it is again :


He would have been better off to leave the CANOLLI and take a gun instead.


Don Cardi

BTW, the character who did the "Tighten Up" was Jules Siegel. I know he was in the novel, not the Trilogy, but I couldn't resist.
