Biography

Seeming only to speak Sicilian, he was accompanied everywhere by Monsignor Zizola, his interpreter. In reality, Graziadei was an omniglot. He pretended to assist Michael Corleone in his plan to pass his money through the Church, but in reality worked with Lucio Vanni and Osvaldo Altobello in order to swindle him.

For his treachery, Graziadei was murdered by Vincent Mancini at the funeral of Michael Corleone.

Behind the scenes

• His last names mean "thank you God"
• His character was later cut from The Godfather Part III and replaced by the character of Gilday.
