The Falcone family controlled the movie unions and the gambling at the Hollywood studios plus a complex of pipeline prostitution that supplied girls to the whorehouses of the states in the Far West. They were an ally of the Molinari and Chicago families.
When Frank Falcone was killed during an airplane crash, which was sabotaged by Michael Corleone, he was succeeded by his underboss Ignazio Pignatelli.
