Re: James Caan dies at 82
So sad.
I'm not a movie person by any means, but James Caan stars in two of my all time favorite movies, The Godfather and Elf.
RIPI can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.
I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

Brian's Song, Killer Elite, Rollerball and a good portrayal of a compulsive gambler in The Gambler. Maybe his greatest performance in Misery.
Time flies by. I remember reading an article on him where he says he's not a kid anymore (he was 35).
RIP Jimmy.Comment

Re: James Caan dies at 82
Got pretty hosed in the Godfather. They cut so much of Sonnys parts out.
Really enjoyed him on the small screen in Las Vegas.You want free speech?

Re: James Caan dies at 82
The guy that played Carlo said that Caan and him never got along and that he suffered two cracked ribs and other injuries in their "one-sided fight scene".

Re: James Caan dies at 82
I don't know about hosed. The part rocketed his 70's career. He had significant scenes throughout the film (The Sollozzo meeting, Beating up Carlo, It's strictly business, his death).

.. Gianni Russo (Carlo) had real mob ties, allegedly.Last edited by Madden08PCgmr; 07-11-2022, 09:53 AM.You want free speech?

Re: James Caan dies at 82
I didn't dispute scenes getting cut, just acknowledged that his career went on steroids after the movie. At nearly three hours something has to go.Comment

Re: James Caan dies at 82
often underrated and overlooked, Caan was one of the two title leads in one of the first buddy cop genre, Freebie & the Bean.
a wonderful film, wish it had gotten a sequel or two. now I'm wishing for a remake
and while he only had a very small role in Dogville, an excellent story driven movie worth a look
