I have a doubt between options A and E. both are fine grammatically. Most explanations here say E is wordy or shifts focus to town from mobster, which I understand but I see a bigger issue which E resolves - the meaning
The stimulus states that Corleone is famous because of "The Godfather" + Corleone is the town near to those the mobster most trusted. The first reason seems like a statement which is used to identify the town while the second reason seems to be the actual reason.
in that case E conveys that nuance completely. it mentions corleone first and the immediately following clause says its famous due to "The Godfather". This is followed by a comma which then completes the rest of the sentence as required. Isn't this the intended meaning? Why would mobster choose a town since its famous? Woudn't he chose it since its close to most people he trusted??
