The Departed (2006)

Question: Who did Frank execute in the beginning of the film? Was it the shop owner or just someone we don't know?

Answer: They were "Guineas from the North End" who tried to tell Frank what to do. (Guinea being a racial slur for Italian-Americans). It's most likely just two unknown people because they are credited in the film as "Executed Woman" and "Executed Man."

Answer: Someone we don't know.

I believe the couple Costello and French killed on the beach were Sullivan's parents.

I would disagree, Sullivan is Irish and the couple French and Costello murder are "guineas" (a derogatory term for Italian-Americans).

Answer: It was Leonardo's father and girlfriend killed out by the airport.

No way.

Italian mob boss and wife?

Answer: It was Matt Damon's parents.
