An Evening You Can’t Refuse: Dinner with Gianni Russo

If you’re a fan of The Godfather, you already know the name Gianni Russo. He played Carlo Rizzi, the ill-fated husband of Connie Corleone, but his story didn’t end when the cameras stopped rolling. Russo has lived a life larger than fiction—intertwined with Hollywood legends, history-changing events, and unforgettable encounters.

Now, you have the chance to hear it all straight from the man himself over an intimate dinner experience unlike anything else.

“Your Place or Mine?” – A Night to Remember

The event, fittingly titled Your Place or Mine? An Evening You Can’t Refuse, isn’t just a dinner—it’s a journey through Russo’s incredible 80 years of life. Guests will enjoy a four-course meal prepared by Gianni himself while he recounts personal stories spanning Hollywood, music, history, and more.

Between courses, Russo will share exclusive photos and film footage, walking you through a life that reads like a movie script. From his early days on The Godfather set to encounters with cultural icons, Gianni brings you behind the curtain of history with the charisma and charm only he can deliver.

Why This Event is Special

  • A Living Legend in the Room – Russo isn’t just telling a story, he is the story. His experiences straddle the worlds of film, music, and history.
  • Dinner and a Show, Elevated – Instead of watching a performance from the audience, you’re part of it—eating, listening, laughing, and toasting alongside a Hollywood legend.
  • An Exclusive Experience – This isn’t a crowded theater or a convention meet-and-greet. It’s personal. It’s intimate. It’s unforgettable.
