Wow, did that kid's father look like Omar Sharif, or what??


Vito's father, the Italian guy. Man, he looked just like a middle-aged Omar Sharif.

Definitely.

I recognized Omar Sharif at once.

Then found it was not Sharif.

I could have sworn it was Mohandis Kranhandler!

Pure logic is ruin.

Yea he did. Since is the most recent thread, i have to say I thought Vito was an idiot. Here is a lovely, nice, well-built woman who is also very seductive. What more could a rather plain-looking, gawky teenager want than that?

I don't quite understand what his problem with her being a stripper was. She had to make a living, and strippers are usually experienced when it comes to the sexual realm. If you need dental work , don't you want a professional working on your teeth instead of going to someone who isn't a dentist? Aren't you a lot safer in a pro's hands? How is she any different?

Hopefully Iris met a man who she could make a life with and who didn't hold her past against her.

No resemblance whatsoever. But even if there was one, what's your point? Enough of a point to start an IMDB thread?

Yeah, he did look like Omar Sharif! Those two looked like they were actually father and son.
