Infanti is perhaps most recognized by international audiences for his role as Fabrizio in the iconic film The Godfather. In this classic, he played the part of a bodyguard to Michael Corleone, who was in hiding in Sicily. Fabrizio's betrayal culminates in a tragic explosion that claims the life of Michael’s bride. While the character meets a violent end in Mario Puzo's novel, a film scene depicting Fabrizio's demise was filmed but ultimately excluded from the original release.

Infanti's contributions to cinema, especially through his unforgettable characters, have solidified his legacy in film history.
