About the title
Charley is the "godson" of the Prizzi clan, who doesn't meddle in other people's business, loves good food and drink, wants to have as many women as possible, and to kill anyone who stands in the "family's" way. Falling in love with the gorgeous blonde Irene, he only learns after the wedding that his beautiful wife is a hitwoman — one of the best in the business. And when Charley is sent to Las Vegas to "sort something out" for his Don, he discovers that his beloved Irene is too tough even for his own "seen-it-all" eyes...
