The Godfather (1972) was adapted from the novel by Mario Puzo. Puzo modeled the character of Don Vito Corleone on New York mob bosses Joe Profaci and Vito Genovese. Many of the events of his novel are based on actual incidents that occurred in the lives of Profaci, Genovese and their families. Puzo based Don Vito's personality on his own mother's. However, Don Vito Corleone's son, Michael, is purely fictional.
The old Man, the Mafia chief, Don Corleone, is an obvious take-off or composite character based on such Gangsters as Carlo Gambino and Alfonso Capone., The latter Gangster was once quoted as saying, God didn"t make all men equal, Thompson Did!The Gun manufacturer. Donald is almost unknown as an Italian name though Don is a title of respect akin to (Sir) not strictly speaking (Knight) as that would be Cavaliere. (Cavalier)Most modern Mafia men use officer-level military ranks-in Italian, such as Tenente Del Mafia- lieutenant of the Mafia, and so on. Generale Del Mafia is very rare. Most field bosses are of Coronello Rank. and yes it has happened some have held diplomatic immunity! Truth is stranger than fiction,no chicken.
