What an amazing unspoken hero of the industry. Let's honor these types of actors with the recognition they deserve.

[Bill-jcfy]

He was a great actor, an "everyman" and he's truly missed. RIP
John.

[VideoSaySo]

He was something else! His roles in The Deer Hunter and Dog Day Afternoon deserved Oscars for his supporting characters. I was so pleased to see y'all doing his profile!

[juandelrio]

I am honored to meet this man again and to cherish the times I've seen him in the movies. He was an inspiration to other actors. He will not be forgotten.

[John-bqff]

Thank you for this. I learned much that I didn't know about the man. John's work in Godfather II made the film what it is. That roll alone should have got him the Oscar. Truly a very special person.

[carolmanning]

He certainly stuck out to me in each of his movies. Thanks for the memories.🙏❤

[allisonmarlow]

His acting was iconic and very distinctive. I was young when Dog Day Afternoon came out, and yet almost 50 years later, his acting and his character still stand out to me. (As does his Godfather roles which eventually I saw as a teen.) RIP Fredo.

Some actor/actresses have that ability to morph into their character to where you don't see the actor, you see the character. John Cazale was one of those people and so is Meryl Streep. It's no wonder their connection was there between them. I'm sure he helped her so much in establishing her career. May he rest in peace.🙏🏻💖

Truly A great actor and fine gentle man! RIP John!

He was brilliant in Dog Day Afternoon. John was fantastic. He and Al Pacino were so good together. He was one of a kind. No one comes close to John.

Deer Hunter; a Masterpiece like no other of its ti
Simply wonderfully told storyline...

[ifnotyouthenwho]

An excellent mini documentary. Thank you. I was not aware of this man's full talent until now.

[roybatty]

Apparently, he was a very kind, decent guy, as well, supportive of the actors he worked with. They regarded him as something of a father figure and often sought his guidance. Underrated man.

[drewmiller]

Thank you. I remember him from those movies but I never new the back scene story. Thank you for not permitting his greatness to be overlooked, again.

[tonyfulton]

Wow, I didn’t know any of this ‘til now. He was indeed a great actor and the fact he played such a great influence in the careers of Meryl Streep and others makes his legacy all the more impressive. God bless him.

[Curlyblonde]

Well done video and summary of Cazale's career. He always looked and acted the part of the characters he portrayed. He seamlessly fit in, never over-playing his roles. Unfortunately the Academy Awards Committee under-rated and under-appreciated him. Most of the time, their decisions are based on politics and influence-pedalling anyway. They hopefully will at some point come to their senses, right this wrong and give him an award posthumously.

[martin-dh]

" fredo your my brother, and I love you " Al wasn't acting, that came from his heart.

[michaelcoulter]

John was mesmerizing... Definitely one. of the greatest
