I Knew It Was You: Rediscovering John Cazale
2009 · Documentary · 40 min. · United States
A portrait of the acting craft of John Cazale and a tour through the movies that defined a generation. Between 1972 and 1978, John Cazale appeared in "The Godfather," "The Godfather: Part II," "The Conversation," "Dog Day Afternoon" and "The Deer Hunter." Collectively, the films hauled in 40 Oscar nominations, including 14 for Cazale's co-stars, and hundreds of millions in box office receipts. But while even casual film fans can name many of the stars of Francis Ford Coppola's 1972 Oscar-winning masterpiece "The Godfather," many draw a blank when it comes to the actor who played Fredo Corleone.
