Many contemporary filmgoers might have no idea who John Cazale was, so this very short documentary gives insight to the man by those who knew him best; Al Pacino, Robert Deniro, Francis Ford Coppola, Sidney Lumet, Gene Hackman and most of all, Meryl Streep. Noted for being in only 5 films, all which have become classics, he was never nominated for any awards. His role in Dog Day Afternoon as the nervous, "finger on the trigger" accomplice is a contrast to Fredo from The Godfather, but just as memorable. <a href="http://s273.photobucket.com/albums/jj203/goji9000/?action=view&current=cazalage.png" target="_blank"><img src="http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj203/goji9000/cazalage.png" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>
