I don't know if you guys know him but he's appeared in many movies the godfather, goodfellas, and the wedding singer(love this movie!) anyhow i was wondering if anyone might have any idea of his family hisotry . I personally believe he's a biracial siscilian or has a african grandparent due to his oviously kinky hair. here is a link( i hope it works) as to what he looks like

Frank Sivero (born Francesco LaGiudice on January 6, 1952 in Agrigento, Sicily, Italy) is a character actor, famous for playing the roles of Genco Abbandando in Mario Puzo's and Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather: Part II and Franky Carbone in Martin Scorsese's Goodfellas.

[edit] Career
Director Martin Scorsese cast him as Frankie Carbone after seeing his performance in The Godfather: Part II.

Sivero can be seen as an extra in The Godfather as one of the witnesses to Sonny Corleone's brutal beating of his brother-in-law, Carlo.

Is this the guy your talking about?

If you look back to images of the 70's you'll see a lot of people with hair like that. Most people wore their hair natural. a Lot of people don't have long loose flowing hair. They do stuff to get it that way. There is this Italian woman I work with who has very black kinky curly hair and she still wears it like the 70's

Remember Welcome Back Kotter?

Have to disagree with you there. the hole purpose of grease is to give the hair moisture not dry it out.
