The killing of Fabrizzio was actually filmed twice. In the first scenario, filmed for Part I, Michael himself shoots Fabrizzio (using the same lupara which Fabrizzio had formerly used to guard Mike with in Sicily). Michael was wearing a white fedora, and a still photo from this scene became one of the movie's best known. The scene was cut out of the movie before its release.

For Part II Fabrizzio is killed by a car bomb (after he left his pizzeria). This scene was cut, but added back into the Saga version.

(not THE picture, but this was taken
from the scene deleted from Part I
