(formerly) }}Morris "Moe" Greene is a fictional character appearing in Mario Puzo's 1969 novel The Godfather and the 1972 movie of the same name. The character's name is a composite of real Las Vegas mobsters Moe Dalitz, or possibly Moe Sedway, and Gus Greenbaum. However, both Greene's character and personality are actually based on Bugsy Siegel: his affiliation with the mob in Los Angeles, his involvement in the development of Las Vegas, and his flamboyant tendencies.[1] Greene is portrayed in the movie by Alex Rocco.[2] The GodfatherMoe Greene is introduced in The Godfather as a renowned Jewish mobster and former executioner for Murder, Inc. He is credited with the development of gambling and entertainment in Las Vegas and bringing the interests of the most powerful organized crime organizations in America to Nevada. Greene is in business with Don Vito Corleone, who bankrolls the creation of Greene's first hotel-casino. In return, Greene takes the Don's second son, Frederico "Fredo" Corleone, under his wing during the war between the Five Families in New York, due to the intervention of West Coast Don Francesco. Although Fredo is greatly influenced by both Greene and the city, family heir Michael Corleone disapproves of the effect it has on his brother, whom Greene reportedly chastised and slapped around in public.[3][4] At a discreet meeting with Greene, Michael expresses his disapproval and makes an offer to buy out Greene's entire interest in the casino as part of the Corleones' relocation to Nevada. Offended, Greene angrily refuses, claiming that the Corleones have neither the favor nor the power required to drive him out of the business and are only moving to Las Vegas because the other families are chasing them out of New York. In the film, he also belittles Michael's credentials as a Don, saying, "I made my bones when you were going out with cheerleaders!". In the novel, Greene is murdered shortly afterward by Al Neri. In the end of the film, Michael has Greene killed as part of his mass slaughter of the Corleone family's enemies. An unknown assassin surprises Greene while he is getting a massage and shoots him through the eye. This allows Greene's casinos to become property of the Corleone family. The Godfather: Part IIGreene's death also plays a part in the second film in the series. Greene was a childhood friend to Michael's business partner and rival Hyman Roth, and it is implied that Roth's anger over Greene's murder is one motivation for his plan to destroy Michael Corleone. LegacyAlex Rocco's portrayal of Greene "cemented Rocco's place in Hollywood mob cinema". Greene's character and death scene has been described as "iconic".[5] Greene's death is based on the actual murder of mobster, Bugsy Siegel.[6] The phrase "Moe Greene special" was coined in reference to his iconic execution by being shot through the eye.[7] Moe Greene special has subsequently been referenced in other gangster shows including The Sopranos, in the episode, Meadowlands.[8] In 1998, he inspired the title of an Off Broadway drama, "Moe Green Gets It In The Eye."[9] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.crimelibrary.com/gangsters_outlaws/mob_bosses/the_godfather/7.html|title=Fact and Fiction in The Godfather |publisher=crimelibrary.com|accessdate=2014-07-07 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080417023350/http://www.crimelibrary.com/gangsters_outlaws/mob_bosses/the_godfather/7.html |archivedate=2008-04-17}} {{Godfather}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Greene, Moe}}Moe Greene2. ^{{cite news |author=Vincent Canby |date=March 16, 1972 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/movies/movie/20076/The-Godfather/cast |title=Movie Review: The Godfather |newspaper=The New York Times |accessdate=2014-06-24}} 3. ^{{cite book|author=Paul Berge|title=Trying to Quit|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=_mUfAwAAQBAJ&pg=PA4|date=1 January 2010|publisher=Lulu.com|isbn=978-0-557-19969-3|pages=4–}} 4. ^{{cite book|author=Larry D.
