The actor who did Pentangeli did a wonderful performance, but it would have meant a lot more for the picture to have Clemenza in that role considering his part in the first movie and Bruno Kirby's portrayal of young Clemenza in the flashback scenes.


Absolutely, I think it's clear it was supposed to be Clemenza. In I when he is teaching Michael to shot, he makes a reference to stopping Hilter at Munich, making him out as kind of a history buff. In II when Hagen visits Pentangeli Hagan talks about him knowing history and politics, and Franks says he still reads a lot.

I don't know if it is history, the movie was set right after WWII. The final scene in Godfather II was on Dec. 7, 1941.
