FARGO S4 AGE CONFUSION
hello welcome to my hell post it’s currently 2 in the morning and I have to wake up at 6 instead im doing this
So as we all know; there’s a lot of confusion about the ages of Josto Fadda and Patrick “Rabbi” Milligan. (And therefore Gaetano, since he’s Josto’s younger brother.)
So first off-
This is the year the Moskowitz’ trade Ari for Rabbi.
On the IMDB page for the episode, this is listed:
This means that Rabbi Milligan was born in 1913, or at least within the timeframe.
Next year is…
On the IMDB:
This would mean that Rabbi Milligan was born in 1916.
Next…
On the IMDB:
Saying 15-17 years old, it means he was born around 1917-1919.
Going through this, we’re to assume that he was born around 1913-1919, however, one can’t really assume 1915-1919, because he would have had to be 5 or younger in 1920. Based on this, he was born in either 1913-1914, making him around 36-37 years old in 1950. Nice!
As for Josto…
Josto only has one child actor, and that is…
15-17 means he was born in 1915-1919. However, one thing that is overlooked? The scene where the Faddas kill the Milligans is in 1937- remember, Josto said he was with the Milligans for 3 years- if you assume that 15-17 is the age he was in 1937 (which is logical because do you really think he would be 20 in 1937?) he would be born in 1920 or 1922, making him 28-30 years old in 1950.
So about Gaetano… It’s listed throughout the show that he is Josto’s YOUNGER brother. Automatically, he is less than 28-30 years of age, though one can assume he is older than 25, making him around 25-29 years of age, or born in 1921-1925. But… He isn’t present in 1934- remember, he went back to Italy when he was 11- and there wouldn’t be a reason for him NOT to be present at the Milligan/Fadda trade-
1934-11 = 1923. Gaetano’s birthday is 1923-1925, making him 25-27.
Anyway I’m going to go update the wikia now lemme know how y’all think about this post ❤️
