Did you know that for THE GODFATHER... Lenny Montana -- who plays Luca Brasi -- is actually a mafia enforcer sent by the Colombo crime family to oversee filming. Francis Ford Coppola liked Lenny and cast him. But he was so nervous to act with Marlon Brando -- and kept forgetting his lines. Francis later included it as a character trait. | Allen Tsai
