True story...colombos had alot of hollywood connections.
They still do. Recent acting bosses Andrew 'Andy Mush' Russo and Tommy Gioeli, underboss Sonny Franzese, acting underboss Dominic Montemarano, capos William Russo, Reynold Maragni, and soldiers Jerry & James Clemenza, Jerry Ciauri, and Anthony Colombo all have relatively extensive Hollywood ties.
What were tommy gioeli’s hollywood ties?
Him and Reynold Maragni hung out at the Mirage nightclub with James Gandolfini, Edie Falco, Michael Imperioli and Jamie Lynn-Sigler.
Did they actually hang out with them or just exchange pleasantries?

That was directed by Danny Provenzano. Tony Pro's great-nephew.

You never can tell, though. Especially concerning turn of the century records concerning immigrants.
Of course. Not saying yours was a definitive, just was the most reasonable conclusion.

I’m a fan pal.

I'd go with the 102 year-old age as the BOP seems to be pretty accurate with their records since the DOJ and FBI can get access to birth records, socials, etc. which normally wouldn't be publicly available. There were lots of errors in the old census records, particularly when there were language barriers involved or over handwriting legibility. This could account for some of the inconsistencies in Franzese's case.
