"Jack Woltz" is obviously based on Harry Cohn, chief executive of Columbia Pictures. And known for his abrasive character. "Johnny Fontaine" is almost certainly meant to be Frank Sinatra. Who was well-known for his connections to the Mob. At the start of his singing career, Sinatra had a contract with band leader Tommy Dorsey. When Frankie became famous, he wanted out of the contract, and Dorsey refused. It's said that Ol' Blue Eyes got some of his Mafia friends to pay Dorsey a "visit". Dorsey ended up letting Frank out for $1. (In the movie, Woltz tells Tom "I ain't no band leader". Which references a similar scene in the movie). The "movie that will make him a big star", that Woltz refers to, was From Here to Eternity, which was being produced by Columbia. (That's "the new war film" that Tom mentions when meeting Woltz in an earlier scene). Sinatra's singing career was coming to an end, and he wanted to go into movies. He very much wanted to star in From Here to Eternity, but Cohn refused. The starlet that Woltz mentions is probably Eva Gardner, who was Harry Cohn's mistress, until she ran off with Sinatra. (That's why Woltz refers to "the olive oil voice" [meaning Sinatra] that stole his girl from him.) I don't know if Cohn ever ended-up with having his favorite horse decapitated. But it is true that Sinatra eventually got the part in the movie, against all odds. Of course, as they say in the credits at the end of every motion picture: "Any resemblance to persons living or dead...is purely coincidental". [wink]

I just read about Dorsey and Cohn from Wikipedia. It says Dorsey died asleep in 1956 after choking because of having a heavy meal earlier in the evening. It's also said he was also addicted to sleeping pills which may have been the cause of his death. Cohn suffered a fatal heart attack after having a dinner in 1958. I'm not a conspiracy theorist etc. but it really sounds like mafia could have had something to do with these deaths :D

But seeing as to how they killed the horse, got it on his bed without him knowing (cuz they sedated him), just goes to show how much control the Don can have on his life. It wasn't just about killing the horse, it was about sending a message. He'd do well knowing just how much power the Don has.

For those who didn’t read the book or see the deleted scenes, Vito asks Tom if “this Woltz (has) balls;” Tom meaning if he’s a Sicilian. The answer comes with Woltz’s statement: “A man in my position can’t afford to be made to look ridiculous!” And if that sentence didn’t do him in, that snide comment about the bandleader story did. When Tom says, “Mr. Corleone…insists on hearing bad news immediately,” it’s his way of saying “God have mercy on your soul.”

In the Godfather video game you have to complete all the tasks that aren't shown on camera in the movie...like finding the location of the Michael meeting with Sollazo and planting the gun in time, but one of the scenes involves sneaking into the stable killing the horse and planting the head...(the actual decapitation was not shown in the game) but it allows you to deep dive into the movie and all the iconic scenes are shown after you complete the tasks...very very underrated game

Frank Sinatra didn't need the mob connections to get a part in From Here to Eternity. The original actor was Eli Wallach, but the director changed his mind, because Wallach was too well-built to lose a fight with Ernest Borgnine. Furthermore, the character was a little sardine of a man, and Sinatra was perfect for the role. Also, it was a minor supporting role, not a starring one.

I love the subtle dialogue in this scene, especially at the dinner. Woltz goes from aggressive racist insults, to respectful dialogue and finally to his sob story about how Johnny stole his pure and innocent actress to gain sympathy, "just to show I'm not a hard hearted man". Not even 5 lines later, he calls the actress "the greatest piece of ass I've ever had". Based on his information, he must've been grooming her from as early as 11 years young. A very nice hidden in plain sight critique of real practices and a great motivation for the Don to really give it to this fucker.
I've read the book and Woltz does in fact rapes underage girls. When Tom was waiting to meet with him, there was a young girl with her mom waiting to see Woltz too for an auditioning role. The mother allowed Woltz to rape her daughter for the part, because after they departed she walked with a triumphant smug air while her daughter visibly limped and had bruises.
